"...James Houghton, David Linton, James Hudson, John Butler,
George Murlin and George Strawson were charged with maliciously
damaging a number of raspberry canes, an asparagus bed and the
lawn of the rectory of Willingham, belonging to Dr. Sutton and
others. It appeared that the defendants, on the 9th January,
obtained a plough and got some boys to pull, and then they went
into the gardens and did considerable damage. P.C.Spray proved
the case. Fined 8s10d including costs."
