Thomas Bartlett, an Ash salesman, was then charged with inciting J.
Gilbert to resist the superintendent on the day in question:— Mr. Boys
appeared for the prisoner who pleaded “not guilty.”
The superintendent deposed:- On Saturday last about half past one as I
was passing the “Market House Inn,” Bartlet said alluding to me “give it
the _____ he has not been in Margate long and it would have been a good
job if he had never have come. He should not take me nor all the
police.” This evidence was corroborated by P. C. Douglass, who was
assisting in taking the prisoner to the station.
James Nutting, a mariner, was then called by the prisoner, and said:- I
did not hear Bartlett use any bad words, but he persuaded the prisoner
Gilbert to go quietly or it would be worse for him.
Charles Saffery, labourer, was also called by the prisoner, and deposed
to hearing Bartlett say “give it to him,” meaning the superintendent.
The defendant was fined 10s, and 10s costs, or in default 14 days.
The money was paid.
