The "HULL and LINCOLNSHIRE TIMES" 5 Dec. 1903 (Karen Atkin) --------------------------------------------- 'MOONLIGHT FLITTING' ILLEGAL Yesterday a remarkable case was dealt with by the Lincoln magistrates. An Act of George II has been unearthed, according to which a tenant, owing rent, is absolutely prohibited from removing the furniture without giving the landlord notice, and any tenant clandestinely of fraudulently acting otherwise runs the risk of being ordered to pay double the value of the furniture removed. The Act was an old one, but it was under one of the sections of this that TOM A. COLLINSON, late of No. 2 Duke Street, Lincoln, and now of West Stockwith, was yesterday summoned The rent had been forwarded since the issue of the summons, and eventually the case was adjourned for a fortnight to give the defendant opportunity of paying 10s 6d costs.
