 Birmingham Police Office. Monday, November 21. (Before I. Spooner, Thos Lee, and J. F. Ledsam Esqrs) Frederick Fenton was brought up charged with violently assaulting Mrs Parker’s of the Nelson public house, in Weaman Street. Mrs Parker’s stated that on Saturday night the prisoner came into her house and requested her to fill him a pint of ale, but it being then after twelve o’clock, she refused to comply with his request. Soon after, having occasion to go into the street, Fenton came up to her and struck her a violent blow. The prisoner in his defence admitted, that he might possibly, as he was intoxicated, have committed the assault. The magistrates convicted him in the penalty of 20s., and in case of non-payment, ordered him to be imprisoned in the House of Correction for twenty-one days.

The fire commenced in an upper chamber, and was quickly discovered by a female servant, who slept in an adjoining room. The loss sustained is comparatively small, as most of the furniture and other property in the apartments were rescued from the flames uninjured.”

 Thomas Dolphin and Thomas Slater were charged with an assault upon Garrington, the watchman, in the house of Mr Hall, the Cross, in Weaman Street. The prisoners are a part of a gang of ruffians who have for some time past annoyed Mr and Mrs Hall in the prosecution of their business. One of the party (it will be seen by our police report) was brought up before Mr Spooner on Monday. Mrs Hall deposed to the disorderly conduct of the prisoners, who forced themselves into the house, and were so outrageous in their conduct that she was obliged to lock herself up in the bar. Garrington, in attempting to get them out of the house, was violently assaulted by both prisoners. The Magistrates convicted them in the penalty of 10s each and costs, and in default of payment, sentenced them to imprisonment in the House of Correction for one calendar month, and hard labour.
