CIP 3.10.1885: John Gibson, clerk, of 159, Gwydir-street, was summoned for keeping a dog without a license, on the 27th of August.—Defendant said he was not home ; but he gave instructions for a license to be taken out, and he thought it was taken out. He however, took a license out on the 29th.—In answer to a question put by the Mayor as to whether the officers making complaints in these cases received any remuneration, Mr. Rice, who appeared on behalf of the Inland Revenue Office, said, under the old law, the officers received one-fourth of the penalty: but now a sheet was sent up to the Treasury, who considered the matter, and there was the chance of the officer getting promotion. The bench inflicted penalty of 2s. 6d. and costs. Allowed a week in which pay the money.

Dear Visitor,

Thank you for exploring historical Cambridgeshire! We hope you enjoy your visit and, if you do,  would consider making a donation today.

Capturing Cambridge makes accessible thousands of photos and memories of Cambridge and its surrounding villages and towns. It is run by the Museum of Cambridge which, though 90 years old, is one of the most poorly publicly funded local history museums in the UK. It receives no core funding from local or central government nor from the University of Cambridge.

As a result, we are facing a crisis; we have no financial cushion – unlike many other museums in Cambridge – and are facing the need to drastically cut back our operations which could affect our ability to continue to run and develop this groundbreaking local history website.

If Capturing Cambridge matters to you, then the survival of the Museum of the Cambridge should matter as well. If you won’t support the preservation of your heritage, no-one else will! Your support is critical.

If you love Capturing Cambridge, and you are able to, we’d appreciate your support.

Every donation makes a world of difference.

Thank you,
Roger Lilley, Chair of Trustees
Museum of Cambridge
