AN ENGLISHMAN'S HOME
Four policemen called on Sidney Herbert Harding, a 42-year-old clerk, of Sidcup, Kent, recently, and after a struggle, took him to the police station. When a summons against Harding for assaulting the police was dismissed at Bromley next day, Mr W. H. Chitty, defending, said : “ If Harding had had his boots on instead of being in his stockinged feet he would have been justified in kicking all four policemen out of the house.” The trouble was said to have arisen out of a husband and wife quarrel, and the magistrates granted Harding permission to take out summonses against the policemen alleging assault.
