 15th October 2013 Elmer Breeze is given at the LOBSTER INN in 1844, but at the NEW LOBSTER INN in 1848. On Monday 12th September 1938, Reginald Pegg of Gunn Street was summoned for failing to quit the Lobster on September 3rd, for using foul language and for damaging glasses and a biscuit jar that had been on the bar. In return Pegg accused Mrs. Winifred Coles of breaking a window of his house. It was heard that Pegg had been refused service at 10:30 pm and had used offensive language and caused damage by sweeping his arm across the bar, breaking a biscuit jar and a glass. Broken glass hit Mrs. Coles, her daughter and a barmaid. The police were called and Pegg was ejected. An hour later Pegg claimed that Mrs. Coles had smashed a window of his house. Robert Pegg, a relative, said he had seen Mrs. Coles throw four or five cream jars at the window. Mrs. Coles said that she had thrown a single jar at the wall because Pegg's wireless was blaring loud. She had not struck the window. Case against Mrs. Coles was dismissed, but Pegg was ordered to pay 10s for each of the three offences and 3s costs. |
