DOVER POLICE COURT
A young man named Burville, from St. Margaret's, charged with
interrupting officers, while, in discharge of their duty, they were
clearing out a tap on the Commercial Quay, at 2 o'clock on Saturday
morning, retorted by saying, that price and another officer let him
into the tap at 12 o'clock - that at least 40 people were there, the
police having let in who they chose. In reply, it was proved by Sergeant
Back, that Price was in the station house, from a quarter before eleven
till one o'clock. He then, it seemed, went to visit the section as
acting Sergeant; and on arriving at the house in question, was attacked
by prisoner and others. Whitnall, another officer, said he was not in
the tap at all. The mayor cautioned the defendant as to his future
conduct; and remarked severely on the cowardly attempt he had made to
get himself out of the trouble he had brought on by quarrelling with the
officers. He was discharged; and the police directed to keep a watchful
eye on the house in question.
(At present I am unsure what pub the above
refers to.)

BREWING
A few things necessary to be known in brewing, in order to have good
beer. First mash; to every four gallons of boiling water add of cold,
and mash directly, stirring it well. In summer let the liquor remain on
the goods only two hours, or it will turn acid. Boil the wort till it
settle down fine in a glass. Take care the yeast is not stale or it will
effect the whole. Let the vessel be very clean. Turn the second morning,
and keep the barrels filled up till the fermentation ceases. When the
wort is boiling, add to every fifty gallons one once of sal prunel, or
in the same quantities, mix half a pound of flour. When it is turned, if
the beer is not very strong, it will be fit to drink in a fortnight.
