From The Standard Newspaper, 20th September 1894

Matilda Bier, proprietoress of The Ship, Shad Thames, was summoned before Mr Fenwick for diluting beer. The Excise Officers took two samples of beer from the Defendant's cellar and, upon analysis, it was found that one draft was diluted to the extent of two gallons to the barrel, and another fined down was diluted to the extent of one gallon. There was no defence to the charge and Mr Fenwick inflicted a penalty of 10/- with the addition of 3/- costs.
