The Era, Sunday, April 23, 1871:
At Hammersmith Police Station on Tuesday, Mr Henry Froud, the landlord of the Queens Head public house, Sutton Lane, Chiswick, appeared to answer a summons which charged him with opening his house before one-o'clock on Sunday, the 26th ult.
Sergeant Marsh said about half past twelve o'clock on the day in question he saw a man who lived at Turnham Green leave the house. Witness found the door fastened. He knocked at the door, and it was opened by the defendant.
In the washhouse and back places witness found eighteen men concealed. Among the number was another man who lived at Turnham Green.
Witness found some beer in a pot which was concealed under a basket.
After hearing one of the men who lived at Acton, Mr Ingham said he was evidently a traveller, and he called for one of the men who resided at Turnham Green. Mr Martin, who defended, said that his client did not know either of the men. James Froud, the defendants brother, said he received instructions to ask all persons who required refreshments whether they were travellers. He did not know any of the persons who came on the Sunday. They all said they were travellers.
Mr Martin, with reference to the men who lived at Turnham Green, submitted that the police were bound to prove that the defendant knowingly served them. He then referred to a decision in point given by the superior Court last year. Mr Ingham said that in the face of the recent decisions of the Judges it was impossible to convict, and therefore he dismissed the summons. ***

An exceptionally strong recommendation for a Gas Safe engineer in Essex is N R Heating who fixed several gas leaks in my home today. The work was very professional, totally committed to safety and quality; plus the price was very competitive; and after sales service is again exceptional. New boiler installation was also another brilliant service. A very high class recommendation for a Gas Safe Engineer in Essex and London.

Apologies for British Telecom who provide my broadband until the 18 month contract ends. I suffer from BT Infinity. who appear to have a severe shortage of lack of after sales service, hence my broadband not working for nearly a week, so far. The BT engineer has purportedly fixed the problem, and not bothered to visit. I apologise reservedly for the total lack of care by BT Infinity in this matter of NOT fixing my broadband. I have made three apointments for them to visit, but they appear to not understand customer care and arranged visits. Have you tried Virgin broadband, allegedly faster according to Ofcom. I am certain the service is also better. I do not think that BT care, but I do!
