David Froud applied for a spirit licence at the Petty Sessions held Wednesday 28th August 1867. The application was refused on general grounds, with the Chairman of the bench adding that he would never grant a spirit licence to a person who could not write.

Sergeant Sewter and P. C. Golding, whilst passing the house at 10:50 a.m. on 1st November 1868, saw a mug on a table and heard a scuffle. Entering the house they saw a man making a hasty retreat through the back door, a man sprawled on the floor, the form he had been sitting on having tipped up, and Mrs Froud in the coal hole, hiding  the pieces of mug which her son had thrown among the coal.
