Life was a struggle. Morpeth Herald 13 January 1939 and Alnwick Mercury, 14 January 1939: MIGRATORY TROUT IN BAG. George Patrick Farndale, 23, 1 Embleton Terrace, Brinkburn, Longframlington, a labourer, was charged with being in possession of a light, intending to take or kill salmon or trout at the Maglen Burn, Rothbury, on November 10th. He was further charged with having in his possession a migratory trout which was unclean, at Maglen Burn, on November 10. Defendant pleaded guilty to both charges. Mr Wheatley stated that water bailiff Easton was on duty at the Maglen Burn, a tributary of the River Coquet, in company with water bailiffs Common and Graham, on the day in question about 6:45 PM, when he saw a man walking over the grass to the roadside and going in the direction of Embleton Terrace. Water bailiff Common went to the man and stopped him. They found his feet were very wet. Defendant gave his name and address and admitted that he had been in the water. He was asked where the stuff was and he replied “find it”. They searched and recovered a gaff hook tied to a stick, a lamp, and a small bag which contained a fish. They were found at the roadside partly concealed and close to where Farndale was first seen. When charged, he begged them to give him his lamp back. Defendant was charged 5s in each case, 10s in all. He asked for his lamp. Mr Weidner asked that the lamp be forfeited and the bench agreed.
