Mr Pickering should have an ample apology for an unprovoked attack, and the very gross and disgusting language used by Pooley.
proceeded, on behalf of Pooley, to answer the charge, which he said was, after all, very trifling. It appeared that certain reports in newspapers during the last two years had reflected very much on Pooley, who, having heard that the complainant had stated that he had lost a match, asked something with regard to it, and said he (Pooley) only wanted a fair chance. He lost his temper and mentioned something about a fight, and ‘punching’ Pickering's head, but of course he never intended to do it. Pooley, he might add, was held in the highest estimation by the Surrey Club, and it was by the instructions of the secretary, who felt very strongly in the matter, that he […] appeared on the defendant's behalf. He wished to impress on the magistrate that Pooley never meant doing Pickering any harm, and considered that if he expressed a little regret, and paid the costs, the complainant's counsel could have no objection.
