This was r< vealed at Burnley Court on Friday, Dean, of More-

for aiding and abetting. They pleaded guilty. jThe case was the first of Its j kind In East Lancashire,


SPEC^L P r o s e c u t CONDITION i n g for the


Clitheroe Rural D 1 s fr 1 c t Council, Mr. F.. P. Lee told the Bench that t ie . Council, act­ ing under the Defence Regula­ tions,; granted la licence to Messrs. T. Vai ley & Sons Ltd.,


Whalley, to [construct four houses.in Station-rd„ Whalley, one of which \?as subsequently sold to Dean. ;


The buildiW licence was subject to [a special con- | dition that the selling price i should not exceed £1,175.


The,house 'was built In the l i , ; .


latter part of 1945, and Dean was told that! the Building Materials and Housing Act of 1945 made It ah offence to sell


■ or offer for sale the house at a price more thaln that stated on the licence fori four, years after the Act came into force, oh the 20th December, 1945. It was a fairly well-known provision.


On 'February 14th this year,


Mr. i Rushton noticed an advertisement by the National Business Agency offering for sale I “ a beautiful modern detached house at Whalley, price!! £2,750|” . He made' inquiries and three days later, accompanied by the Surveyor,' wentito the Nitlonal Business- Agency’s office in Burnley and

An! appointment was made, and I Mr. Rushton land the

to the house " Rosedean.” T h e i e wer^ two ladles Inspecting the house at the samel time. Mr. Rusnton told - Boardwell and Dean] who he


I ;


was and that the offer of the house constituted an offence undertheAct.


, Boardwell replied that tliat


was not'the house advertised. Dean said he was h o t offering the house for sale at £2,750, and had no knowledge of the advertisement. Boardwell said that the; house advertised was one at Waterfoot.


B :dweoardjvell had since written


to the! I Council ' expressing regret and apologising for any inconvenience. ’ The advertise­ ment, he said, had been recelvedl by him from the firm’s Manchester office.


Mr.; Lee said the Inquiries


were cdntlnued and it, was found that on February 9th, Mr. Josejph Holden, of Burnley,


r e c e i v e d - a letter from "Rosedean,” Whalley, giving particulars of the house as requested. The letter con­ cluded:! “ Price Is best offer over £2,000;. yours, J. Dean.” Mr. Holden went to the house, saw Dean, and was shown round, i.


The case, said Mr. Lee, was one of some significance because if the house had in fact been sold, the minimum penalty would have been £1,575, the amount over and above the permitted price.; The action of the Rurai District Council had prevented a more serious offence.


' He submitted that there had


been an| attempt to make an extortionate profit, a n d stressed that It should be friade quite clear that the .conditions of the i licence liAd to be observed; for the four years.


TRIED FOR BEST PRICE Mr. H.' Burton, barrister, of


Manchester, defending, said Dean' wais a perfectly respect­ able man. Under doctor’s orders, his Invalid wife had to go to reside at Morecambe, and Mr. I Dean had to buy a house there which was not as good as the one at Whalley and for which he had to pay £2,550. I


-


To realise some of the money I he had to seli his house at Whalley, and he tried to get the best price he could.!'


The National . Business


Agency came Into the case In a thost unfortunate way. They were consulted by Dean and relied on him, and he on them. The Agency had not the remotest |ldea of the building regulations in force, as they had been mostly 'Concerned with selling businesses, and had only recently begun to sell hofises. They had now sent to all their offices a circular setting out the regulations.


There had been no conceal­


ment about the figures. The house had since been sold for £1,175, ahd not one penny profit had been made.

“ T F anyone pesters you about the ’*• first charter, you should say that


when he addressed ihem on Clitheroe' The Municipal Corporations


Act of 1835, he said, standardised the machinery, 'offices and func­ tions of' municipal corporations, the reason for the Act being that boroughs had been springing up in various parts of the country since just after the Norman cohquest; and varied consider­ ably in their structure, making it difficult for Parliament -to legislate for'corporations as a whole. Added to th a t difficulty was


the fact that a . number of corporations had no royal charter to show, but were boroughs by prescription, .having -the right from time immemorial Clitherbe belonged to this class. The charter which was said to


have been granted in 1147 and the existing one of 'about 1283 -were grants of privileges'to the inhabitants by early local land­ lords, both of-whom happened to be Norman bafons, 'the later charter confirming and supple­ menting the early one but neither, so far as was known, making any mention of corporate rights,


EARLY SETTLERS Describing how the charters,


caine to be gran t^;' Mrl'Borrest said that about 200 years after the Romans left Britain, settlers,’ who were loosely referred to as Anglo-Saxons, found i their way into this valley and cleared the


^ site, much in the same way tfiat settlers went into the prairies of America in . the last century. They settled in the 4J square miles still referred to .as the ■township of Clitheroe. - ! These, settlers were essentially


tillers of the soil under a lord of the manor, and an integral part of 'the township was the arable land from which they drew their


.livelihood. , Each family tilled as much of -the arable land as its oxen and implements allowed, but did not pay rent for the land M it was known today. The rent ■was' in the form . of service in tilling the land which the lord retained for himself. Each tilled its own land for about three days a week, and the lord’s land for the remainder. They were also liable to do extra wdrk which the


■lord might spring upon them in time of emergChcy, and to'make payments which arose out of individual customs and manners.


There were also other restric­ tions on their fives. They could not sell their, cattle; or even give their daughters in marriage , without the per­ mission of the lord.


i : I They were obliged to remain


on the lord's land, unless they had his permission to move, and he held over them more or less the pijwer of life and death. They were known as villeins of unfree status,

the "-big businessmen”'o f tha t time, and Clitheroe happened to be a branch of their-combine, with the castle a s one of their “ registered offices.” I t was to their ; interest that


Clitheroe should develop, for various reasons, one being th a t it was necessary to attract crafts­ men or tradesmen to service .the gaitlBon and andtoer tha t there should be well attended .markets to ensure suppllra to the'castle. The old conditions of service


did not attract, so morp advan­ tageous terms -had to bo designed to bring in the desfied class of person. Moreover, hard! cash for


rent Instead of service-on the land was better business to )3ie lord, who was principally non­ resident here. Thus the way was open for the. first charter; T h e lord a t tha t time was


Henry de Lacy. Presumably he- gave the charter for the reasons mehtloned,. .or perhaps for a suitable cash payment, T h is charter had been'missing

were also commute a t the sams time,! and certain privileges r<- garding the trade of the tow, i were [granted. One was the right tb|buy and sell goods in th j town[ tO' the! exclusion cf strangers, -who could only set u ) stalls and [do business at fair times.


-;! This chaTter certainly had its


effecl, because on the death df Edmund de Lacy in 1258 It was found,there -were 66 burgages,li the toivn. This would put the population at about 300, whlcr was,Considerable, in view of ths- fact 'that the total population qt the country wasjonly 2,000,000. Under the first ch a r te r ,' the


peop e were still governed by the lord's court and the lords steward. I t simply gave -them i rise jin status from slaves tp something like land owners.


CORPORATE ACTIVITY Nearly 150 years later, ,wheh


the burgesses were getting .used to bplng men of some indeper - dence, there came the last an|d greatest of the fie tsc y famU Heniy Earl of Lincoln, a cod-


temfiorary of Edward . I and perhaps the greatest man In tlm k i n g d om , whose house h Chancery Lane,; Lincoln’s Inp now perpetuates his memory.. Ur-der the. charter granted bjy


Henry, the taking by| ea c i bur^€& of Is. 4d. ^ year to ,th e Castle ceased. .Instead, It W£s agreed the town as a whole should pay £6 13s 4d. a year In


one I sum, and that the burgesses should pay Is. 4d. to the town’s box. Henry also handed lover the court of the town .and Its profits, so th a t local legislation was given to the citizens, .


This brought the first glimmer ■ of corporate activity, for it meant th a t the burgesses (had to o r g a n i s e themsblves to undertake these duties.| Some­ body had to be respoilfible tor collecting the “ ren ts” and- paying them in bulk | to the


llotd, and someone to conduct the court formerly conducted, by the lord’s steward. *-


These two men were called


balliSs, and were elected each year on the feast of St, Denys, October 9th, They, in turn, called the burgesses' together,; jor the election of 12 men to serve as a jury for 12 months,


i i This court began to act as a T.


common council for the borough, to investigate the rights of persons to be admitted burgesses, managing corporate -property, audit the bailiff's accouiits, and generally control the affairs of the borough.


iUNPAID OFFICERS Mr. Forrest went on to describe.


the duties of the town’s 'officers, and showed how they roughly coiresponded to the local;govern­ ment officers-of today. Most of them; he said, were unpaid.


Citizens were obliged to serve


, in the various offices by rota, land there was no backsliding. If a man refused to take office when elected, or if he did tbe job badly be was liable to be b r o u g h t before his fellow


' townsmen and punished. The corporate life developed


gradually and naturally,' but It still remained in a low- state of organisation, the machinery and


'officers of ‘ the town retaining" bhelr ' mediaeval identity. The Municipal Corporations Act of 1835 was designed to stabilise municipal affairs throughout the country. I t was -this act which gave Clitheroe the right to have a Mayor.

Her husband, -Mr. Joseph


Frankland, told the i Coroner that they had heeni married seven years and had ohe sur­ viving child. In this last five years they had lost three sete of twins. His wife [had had poor health. She | suffered from gastric ulcers-and had undergone an Operation. On his return ■ from work


about 12-30 p.m. on [Saturday he saw a bottle of aspirin tablets on the rug. [The cork was out and one or two-tablets were on the rug. He Went up­ stairs and.found his wife In bed. Everything i in the rdom was.normal. She complained of severe headache and pains Ih the stomach, and[ said she had takeh some aspirins. He went for 'the doctor, | who was not In, , but the doctor’s assist­ ant came.to the hofise about 8^30 p.m. His wife! told the doctor that she had taken about 20 aspirins. The doctor gave him a prescription and


said he would call[ on the Monday. After he had retired to bed,


his wife’s condition! became worse. About 3 a.m.! on Sun­ day morning, they went down­ stairs and he lit the fire. She was no better later that morn­ ing, so he sent for the doctor, who had her adniltted. to Blackburn Infirraark where i.m.|;

[ i CLOTHING COUPONS T [Further questioned by the

She had no reason to steal clothing coupons, and he could not explain why she shofild do so. He frequently asked her to explain, and she replied that It-[was Just' to sell them. He “ pestered” her toj get the trqth, but they did [not have any rows. His wife never threatened to end het life. P.C. Mackenzie said Mrs.


Frankland was On ball on a charge of stealing and Illegally transferring clothlngj coupons, and should have appeared be- foto the magistrates oh' May 31st.
