From the Kentish Gazette, 30 June 1857.

Henry Brown was charged with stealing a sign board, value 10s., the property of Mr. Markrow, keeper of the "Half Moon" beer shop, in King-street. Hearing a noise at a late hour on Saturday night, prosecutor got up and caught the prisoner with the board, which was in its usual place before prosecutor went to bed. Prisoner urged in defence that he did not take the board down. He was committed for trial.
