Mr. Meller for the defence said Mrs. Halstead had been to Mr. Comery's to dinner and arranged that Mr. and Mrs. Comery should come to tea at her house. Mrs. Halstead and Mrs. Comery want for a walk and returned about five o'clock. Pearson was in the house unknown to the landlord and he supplied him with nothing, and if he did drink claret it was unknown to Halstead. Comery was their as an invited guest. The front door was not fastened and everything was done openly and without fear. Oharles Halstead said on the day in question a party of visitors from Lockwood way oome to the house about four o'olock. He decided they were bona fide travellers. The horse was put up in the stable and the waggonetts in the yard. They came in by the front door. He did not know Pearson was in the house until the officer came to the bar door and brought Pearson with him. Witness told Pearson he had no right there and he replied he had come simply to see if his wife had come back. He did not supply any drink to Comery after 2 30,nor had he any glass before him when the officer came in, neither did he mix with the other company. Witness's wife had been for a walk that afternoon with Mrs. Comery and Mrs. Pearson. By Mr. Goodall: He supplied drinks to the Lockwood party about 20 minutes before the officer oame in. Pearson was not in then. Mrs. Halstead proved that she dined with Mr. and Mrs. Comery and then invited them to tea and generally corroborated her husband's evidence. Wm. Comery also corroborated the evidence of the landlord. Witness did not know that Pearson was in the house. Mrs. Halstead had been to church in the morning and on her return porridge had been prepared for her return and as she aid not like them she went to diner at their house. By Mr. Goodall : Whilst in the bar he was smoking and reading, but was not asleep. Mrs. Comery said that at dinner time she was invited along with her husband to tea by Mrs. Halstead. John Edward Pearson and Wm. Comery were then charged with being on licensed premises during prohibited hours. Inspector Shepley said Pearson came to the office along with Police-constable Ingham and stated that he had been in search of his wife and found several friends from Lockwood and he was treated to a glass of olaret so he played the " Dead Maroh" in Saul for them. He declined to say who supplied him with the olaret or to say anything further. Halstead said he did not know Pearson was in. He supplied wines, bottled beer, &c., but nothing to Pearson.

Appears in a newspaper article on on 13 August 1870 at at Huddersfield, Yorkshire, England, VACCINATION PROSECUTIONS.
On Tuesday, at the West Riding Court House, Huddersfield before Bentley Shaw and Joseph Norton, Eaqs., the first batch of persons who, in the Huddersfield Union, have persistently infringed the Compulsory Vaccination Act, appeared to answer a charge of having refused to have their children vaccinated Mr. John Cocking, clerk to the guardians, prosecuted.
Benjamin Halstead, of Kirkburton, waa charged with neglecting to have his child Ada Halstead, vaccinated. Mr. Cocking said he appeared on behalf of the Board of Guardians, to prosecute the defendant in this case and several others of a similar kind The proceedings were founded upon the 30th and 31st Vie (Compulsory Vacci- nation Act) section 16, which enacted that the parent of every child born in England should, within three montha after the birth of auch child or, where, by reason of death, absence, or inability of the parent, any person should have the custody of auch child, auch person should within three months after the birth, take it to the public vaccinator of the distriot in which it should be resident to be vaccinated or causa it to be vaccinated by some medical practitioner. By section 29 of the same Act of Parliament every parent or person having the custody of a child who should neglect to cause such child to be vaccinated and should not render a reasonable excuse for his neglect, should be guilty of an offence and liable to be proceeded against summarily, and upon conviction, to a penalty of 20s. Section 15 states that the registrar should on or within seven days after the birth of any child not vaccinated, give notice to the parent or any person having the custody of such child ; and, if he proved that the registrar had complied with that section of the Act of Parliament, it was for the defendant to urge such reasons as he might think proper for neglecting to comply with the Act.
Mr. Laycock— He admits the case you see.
Mr. Cocking stated that, in this instance, it was a case of wilful refusal. The defendant had been written to specially, and every possible persuasion had been used to induce him to comply with the Act of Parliament, but in vain. Therefore, he must ask their worships to inflict upon the defendant the full penalty.
Mr. Shaw — Have you anything to say ?
Defendant— I object on conscientious grounds. I believe it is my duty as a parent ; and I am doing my duty as a parent to children when I object to vaccination. I have a sister, and I have every reason to think she was subject to fits from eight or ten years through vacci- nation. I have known of inatences in which there is every reason, and very good grounds for believing that the parties have suffered very materially from vaccination, and that is the reason why I object.
Mr. Shaw— You see you should not violate the law. The vaccination you complain of might have been im- proper vaccination. We fine you in the full penalty of 20s. and costs (total 28s. 6d).5
