Kentish Mercury, Saturday 21 April 1849.
DISORDERLY CONDUCT.
A young man of respectable appearance, named Henry Syrett, tailor, of
Rushey Green, Lewisham, was charged under the following circumstances:—
Charles Atkins, beadle of Lewisham, said that last evening about six
o’clock as he was passing by the "Castle Tavern," Lewisham, he heard a
disturbance. He found the prisoner inside who was behaving in a very
riotous manner. Witness endeavoured to prevail on the defendant to leave
the house, but he immediately put himself in a fighting attitude and
used threatening language.
Mr. W. Claringbold, landlord of the "Castle," said the defendant came to
his house intoxicated. Witness put him out, and the defendant then used
very rough language to Mr. Atkins.
Mr. Inspector Miller said the prisoner was committed for one month in
September 1847, for assaulting the police. The constable was so much
injured that he has since been labouring under great bodily suffering.
The prisoner expressed his regret.
The magistrate said it was very necessary the prisoner should he
punished, and inflicted a fine of 20s. or in default to be committed for
21 days.
