Alice Bradshaw, a beer-shop keeper, North Road, was charged on three informations, with selling half-an-ounce of tobacco, a glass of rum, and a glass of gin, on the 16th February last, to Mr. Elmey, and Mr. McNaughton.
Mr. F. Armstrong was for the Crown, and Mr. Ascroft for the  defendant.
After a very long hearing, the magistrates dismissed the information for the tobacco, and convicted in the mitigated penalty of £12.10s in each of the other cases.
Mr. Jacson, in delivering the judgement of the court said, that with regard to the information for the tobacco, they should dismiss the case, and they were bound to convict in the other cases, but it must be in the least penalty, namely to £12.10s in each case.
They, the magistrates, thought Mrs. Bradshaw's was a case of extreme hardship, and they could not compliment the officers on the manner of getting up the case, but on the contrary, their conduct was most improper.
There, said Mr. Jacson, is the case of a widow, an elderly and infirm person, and under these circumstances, if one information has been laid it would have been sufficient, but instead of laying one information they had lain three distinct ones, for offences committed at one and the same time. He hoped that the Board of Excise would mitigate the penalties as low as possible, and they would willingly join in a recommendation to that effect.
