From a local paper, date unknown. 1889ish.
Assault.
Harriett Houlihan, wife of the last prisoner, on a warrant,
assaulting Thomas Benns, landlord of the "Lads of the Village"
Charles Street, Deptford.
Mr. Raddle attended to prosecute.
The complainant said he had given evidence against the prisoner's
husband at that court, and after he got home she came into his house
and threw a jug at him. The jug struck the pull of the beer engine,
and was broken, some pieces striking him on the chest. A neighbour
pulled her out of the house.
The prisoner said she did throw the jug when the landlord refused to
serve her, but it did not strike him.
The gaoler said the prisoner had been to the court with her
husband’s tea in the jug. She was a hardworking woman.
Mr. Benns said he did not wish to press the charge.
Mr. Marsham ordered her to find one surety in £5 to keep the peace
for three months, or 21 days' imprisonment.
