Salvation Army group at Ampthill, 1906 [Z1306/1/35/1]
Saturday 18th March 1916: A Salvation Army
officer from Cheddington has appeared in court and pleaded guilty to allowing
lights to shine from the windows of the Salvation Army Barracks at Eaton Bray
on 4th March. Police Constable Storr noticed a bright light at 9.25 p.m., entered
the building and found three lamps alight. Wesley Kitto expressed his regret at
the offence, explaining that there had been boards against the windows, but
that evening one had been removed to make an improvised table for a tea party.
He was fined 10 shillings and 6 pence, including costs.
