...

Thomas Brodrib, licensee of the Flying Dutchman, Paulton, pleaded not guilty to permitting drunkenness on his premises on the 24th ult. - Mr. J. H. Clifton defended. The Bench said that all through the case there was a conflict of testimony, but the balance of evidence appeared to be in favour of defendant, and the case would therefore be dismissed. Elizabeth Jones was summoned for being drunk on the licensed premises of the Flying Dutchman, on the same occasion, and a fine of 5s and costs was imposed.
