DISTURBANCE AT A TEMPERANCE
OPEN-AIR MEETING
Thomas Eccles, Thomas Whalley, and George Dearden,
appeared in answer to a summons charging them with
assaulting Mrs. Mary Ann Hunter, landlady of the "Star
and Garter," Brook Street, on Sunday night last.
It appeared from the evidence adduced, that the defendants
had been present at a temperance meeting, which had been
held opposite the prosecutrix's house on Sunday night.
A man named Gardner, in addressing the meeting, strongly
condemned the public houses in general, and the "Star and
Garter" in particular. Mrs. Hunter had been listening to the
speaker's remarks, and at length rushed into the street, and
forcing her way through the crowd, attempted to pull him
down from the chair on which he was standing. The result was
a general fight, in which the prosecutrix was assaulted by the
three defendants.
Several witnesses were called to prove that Mrs. Hunter had
commenced the disturbance, but it was also said that complaints
had frequently been made (to the police) by the inhabitants of
that neighbourhood, of temperance open-air meetings, and the
police have been instructed to prevent their being held, by
ordering the parties to move on.
Mr. Taylor (Magistrate) informed the defendants that they had
no right to interfere with parties who had their rent to pay, and
their livelihood to get, notwithstanding their disapproval of the
public house system.
He, himself, had a great regard for teetotalism, but he could not
consent to allow parties to break the peace while advocating
those principles. He would, therefore, order the defendants to
pay the costs of the summons.
