Kentish Gazette, 19 September, 1806.

A melancholy accident happened at Monday night, between eleven and twelve o’clock.

George Hurst, by trade a journeyman stone-mason having been drinking at the "Bull and George," in High street, to an immoderate excess, (three gallons of ale and a glass of peppermint) fell down an area stairs a few doors from the "Bull and George," and pitched his head against a water-butt, in which situation he was found dead next morning about six o’clock.

Kentish Gazette, Tuesday 26 November 1816.

Notice. A cart and harness being left on the premises of the "Bull and George Inn," Ramsgate, on the 9th of July, 1816, and notice being given to the proprietor thereof, that the said cart and harness, if not taken from off the premises, by Saturday next, and the full charges paid for the use of premises, and other charges due to the landlord of the said inn, the same will be we exposed to sale by public auction on that day, to defray the same.

Ramsgate, 25th November, 1816.

From the Kentish Gazette, 13 February 1838.

A fire broke out about nine o’clock on Saturday evening at the "Bull and George Commercial Hotel," Ramsgate, which consumed the furniture and bedding of a bed-room, and threatened destruction to the whole of the premises, which have lately been greatly enlarged; but being early discovered prompt and efficient services were rendered immediately, and were successful in extinguishing the devouring element. It is supposed to have been occasioned by a spark from a candle, as the servant had but shortly before left the room, and on her opening the door soon after the fames burst out, which so alarmed her that she fell into hysterics, and was a considerable time before she recovered. The destruction of property would have been immense had it not been early discovered, as the stabling and coach-houses join the rear, and most likely would have communicated with the other property contiguous.

Kentish Gazette, Tuesday 17 March 1874.

A Ramsgate Affair D'Amour.

Sir James Hannen and a special jury had before them on Saturday a petition of Mrs. Frampton, the wife of an officer in the Royal Marines, for a judicial separation on the ground of her husband's adultery with Eliza Duntz, at Ramsgate and elsewhere.

It appears the parties were married in 1869; they lived happily till the respondent went down to Chatham for a course of instruction, and there he met this Eliza Duntz.

In November, 1872, Mr. Frampton visited Ramsgate, and there he and Eliza Duntz occupied the same room at the "Bull and George."

In 1873 the brother of Mrs. Frampton went to Ramsgate, and a photograph being produced it was recognised as that of Mr. Frampton.

Mary Ann Whitnell, in her examination said she was the head chambermaid of the "Bull and George," at Ramsgate. She recollected by his photograph Mr. Frampton engaging No. 5 bedroom. After she went upstairs in the evening she found a lady there who was not Mrs. Frampton. Saw her undressing the same night. She afterwards met the respondent, and said to him, "I was not aware, sir, you had a lady with you." and he said "Oh, yes." She didn't see the respondent next morning, but the bed looked as if two people have slept in it.

Henry Tatton, of the "Bull and George," corroborated evidence as to seeing a lady who was not Mrs. Frampton with the respondent.

The counsel for the respondent said he was not prepared to put Mrs. Frampton in the box.

The jury then found that the respondent had committed adultery with Eliza Duntz.

The Judge-Ordinary granted a decree nisi, with costs.
