REFUSING TO BILLET SOLDIERS
At the Borough Police Court on Saturday, Thomas Mason,
landlord of the Windsor Castle, Egan-street, was summoned
for refusing to billet two men and horses belonging to the
12th Battery of the Royal Artillery, when ordered to do so
by Major Little - Chief Constable.
The Battery came into town on the 22nd August, and two
men were sent to the defendant's house, but his wife refused
to accommodate them. As that was the first offence of its kind
in Preston he did not press for a heavy penalty.
The defendant was not in the house at the time or the soldiers
would have been billeted The case was withdrawn on the
defendant promising to pay the costs of the case.

ReplyDeleteRichard and Margaret Crombleholme had been at the Windsor Castle from about 1846 until Richard's death in 1849. "DEATHS...On Sunday last, aged 40, Mr. Richard Crombleholme, of the Windsor Castle Inn, late joiner and builder, much and deservedly regretted."
ReplyDeletePublished in the Preston Chronicle, Sat., 26 May 1849.
The following year Margaret (Winders) Crombleholme married Thomas Snape of the Fortune of War and he moved into her pub. At the time of the 1851 census Thomas Snape, innkeeper, aged 42, was living at 20 Egan Street with Margaret, aged 40, four of her children (surname Crombleholme), and his son Robert Snape. As you have shown, Margaret Snape died at the Windsor Castle on 1 July of that year.
