QUOITING MATCH
On Thursday last, a match at quoits which created considerable sensation, was played in the yard attached to the Sir Walter Scott, between Mr. T. Nightingale of the Bee Hive Inn, Preston, and Mr. T. Worswick of Chorley.
There was a large congregation of spectators. The stake was £10 a side, and the game was 61, Mr. Nightingale allowing his antagonist 21.
After some splendid playing, Worswick was declared the winner, having only, however, the small majority of three.

PEDESTRIANISM - Yesterday at Copenhagen Ground, Newton Heath, near Manchester, a match, in which the sporting community of this district were much interested, came off. Mr. Hinde of the Sir Walter Scott Inn, in this town, had bet Michael Burns, a lamplighter, residing in Preston, but better known among his sporting friends by the soubriquet of "Paddy of Penwortham," £50 to £30 that the latter would not run eleven miles within the hour. Paddy comments Ed his arduous feat between three and four o'clock in the afternoon. To make the distance, he had to go thirty-one times round (less ten yards) the Copenhagen course. He lost by five seconds. The feat was so nearly accomplished that many were under the impression that Paddy was the winner, but both the umpires decided against him. There was a RVconsiderable attendance on the ground, and much money changed hands, the betting being generally 6 to 4 on time.

LICENSEE ACQUITTED
No evidence for the prosecution was offered at Preston Sessions yesterday, in the case in which Albert Hall (43), late licensee at the Sir Walter Scott Inn, North Road, Preston, pleaded not guilty to three charges alleging the receiving of stolen coal.
The Chairman (Mr. J. Catterall Jolly I.C.), instructed the jury to bring in a formal verdict of not guilty, and Mr. Hall was discharged.
Mr. Jolly said he quite agreed with Mr. T.E.Hinchcliffe, prosecuting counsel, that the case was "too thin" to justify putting Hall on his trial. The formal acquittal was quite as conclusive, however, as it would have been had the jury returned their verdict after hearing the evidence.
