Charles Tyler, "Beresford Arms," Beresford-street, Woolwich, was summoned on Thursday by Inspector Linvell, for harbouring improper characters and permitting fighting at his house.

Reddich deposed, that at a quarter to ten on the 23rd ult., he saw two intoxicated prostitutes fighting in front of the bar for about ten minutes, the landlord and his wife looking quietly on, whilst a large mob of persons collected round the door. On going into the taproom upstairs he found no less than fourteen prostitutes in the house, shouting and creating the greatest disturbance.
