| Note* | Notes from Louise Daniels HENRY MITSON (1830-1879) and HANNAH JANE BRADLEY HILL (1840-1879) The youngest son of William and Jane Mitson was only seven when he arrived on the Hobart Town wharves in 1837, and spent some time in the Queen's Orphanage at New Town with his brother William. He learned the hotel trade from his mother, who held the licence for the "Duke of Wellington", and from his eldest brother, John. In May 1852 he returned to Hobart from Sydney on board the Water Lily. Perhaps he had been to Bathurst chasing gold, for in October he was off again, to Melbourne this time on the Circassion, most probably to try his luck at Bendigo. In 1854, still in Victoria, he married Anne Griffiths, (1562), but it seems to have been a very brief relationship. He was living with his brother John in 1855 at the "Union", when he had to rescue John Smith, the cook at the hotel, from a charge of stealing one of his shirts, valued at 2 shillings. While he was out of town, Smith had taken the shirt from his box, and John Mitson had given him into custody, believing him to have stolen the shirt. Henry denied that Smith had any felonious intent, and so he was discharged. In 1856 he took over the licence of the "Union" Hotel on the corner of Campbell and Liverpool Streets, after a short break, from his brother John, and remained working in hotels all his life. He remained at the "Union" until 1865. The Valuation Roll for 1860 shows that he owned the "Prince of Wales" Theatre, Campbell Street, leased to John O'Connor for 20 pounds per year. He was not without some sporting prowess. When the Licensed Victuallers of Hobart and Glenorchy held a cricket match in the summer of 1859, he was one of only 18 who were willing to play, nine a side. A full eleven could not be mustered on either side - many of the worthy bonifaces fighting shy as they had not handled a bat for many a long year past, and could not boast of the activity and agileness they aforetime possessed. Messrs Wood and Wrathall were captains, - Wrathall led the way with two splendid hits to leg; each of which deserved four runs or more, but the worthy boniface being "heavily weighted" he was forced to be content with a brace of twos. Mitson agitated the ball with considerable cleverness and so also did his fellow bowler, Spillers…Woods' side ceded their wickets after 31 runs - Mitson, Seton, Wood and Wright being the only scorers. Mitson and Seton both played well and made some good hits. Mitson scored 5 and 11, and took six wickets. From 1867 to 1869 he was at the "Albion" Inn, Elizabeth Street . The "Albion" was on the western side of Elizabeth Street, in what is now the Mall, two doors south-east of Cat and Fiddle Arcade. It was a coaching inn, from where Burbury's Coaches left for Launceston each day. It was first licensed in 1823, and fell victim to the massive destruction of old Hobart in the early 1960s. Henry gave up the license to William Hatton in May 1869. He aimed to make it a respected hotel, and as it was the site for a number of inquests and other public functions, he may well have succeeded. In 1867 he advertised for some time in the Mercury, the wording of which reveals his aim. Having laid in a superior stock, necessary to the carrying on of a first class business, hopes thereby to meet with a fair share of support. The stable accommodation is also very superior. A good hostler is always in attendance. Inn and stable charges in accordance with the times. When the city was illuminated for the visit of the Duke of Edinburgh in January 1868, Mitson had a picture of an anchor in the window of his hotel, with a gas light shining behind it. An advertisement on the same day asked readers of the Mercury to look out for a white Manilla Poodle, answering to the name of Pompey, and to bring him to the Albion Hotel to receive a reward. Maybe he was the pet of the young ladies of the house, Rosa Mitson and her cousins, frightened away by the crowds and the noise of the Royal Visit. A vivid description of the "Albion Inn" in 1857 was published in 1930. The Albion Inn was licensed in 1823 as an Hotel and Coffee House, and was a first class eating house for nautical people in the seventies, serving a really tiptop luncheon for 1/-. Other hotels did the same, and some were as high as 5/-, pay your money and take your choice. The house has undergone many changes. Before the introduction of tram cars in Hobart, it was the starting point for the New Town buses, or as they were called, "Cooleys", seeing as they ran between there and Cooley's Hotel at Moonah, to whom they belonged, and were stables there. The smaller buses ran through the day, but at 1 and 6 pm it was a busy time at the Albion for they started off with the large coach and four in hand. There was always an additional horse waiting at the hills to hook on and lighten the pull. As the clock struck those hours there was a cheery "Gee Up," and the cracking of the long whip, together with the rattle of the horses' hoofs on the road, made music with an echo from the buildings. Then came a short break in Henry's career as a publican. In March 1870 he began advertising a new business daily in the newspaper: H MITSON Boot manufacturer and importer 143 Liverpool Street most respectfully wishes to inform his Friends and the Public in general that he has commenced business in the above lines, and trusts by strict attention to business, punctuality and civility, combined with moderate prices, to gain a share of the public patronage. Country stores supplied on reasonable terms. A GOOD FIT GUARANTEED The bootmaking business can't have succeeded as he had hoped. Later in 1870 Henry was licensee of the "Duke of Clarence", on the north-eastern corner of Murray and Elizabeth Streets, first licensed in 1844 as the "King George". It still exists, occupied by a take-away store, a tailor, and a photographer. Henry took over the license about September from John Trowbridge , who had held the license briefly after having a butcher's shop. The "Duke of Clarence" was a better class of hotel, catering to the flourishing middle class, and when the house was popular the licensee did well. It was a comfortable old inn, with a range of stabling at the rear. During the time of one of Mitson's predecessors, Isaac Pear, it was a centre of style. "Even Pear's oysters were more stylish than other city oystlers." Pear had been a racing man, owning race horses,and the pub was the centre of attention on New Town race days. Election days were also great occasions, when the "Duke" was a city polling booth. Those were the days when public spirit ran high, and the candidates were very much closer to the electors. Money flowed freely to secure candidates' return, and only the wealthy bothered to stand. Election agents worked hard and threw money about buying drinks for the voters, or even more outright bribes were made. Early in 1871 the police conducted a campaign against breaches of the Licensing Act, and caught Mitson twice in a short space of time. The first was a minor offence, failing to keep a light burning all night in front of his premises, and he was fined 5 shillings. The second was more serious, when he was charged with having his house open after hours on the night of the 21 January. Two policemen found his door ajar, and two men drinking ale in a room off the bar about midnight. Mitson claimed that he had only just gone out by a side door, and the two gentlemen had come in to collect a shot belt that had been left there for one of them. His little daughter had served them without his knowledge. It was no fault either of himself or his wife that they had been served. He was fined 10 shillings and costs. The Mercury conducted quite a strong campaign over the police action against publicans, likening it to a persecution. Then in March the "Duke of Clarence" had a very close call, when a passer-by noticed smoke issuing from an attic window, and the fire bell was rung. Two brigades came, and a crowd gathered, but by then Mitson had rushed upstairs to the bedroom where his children and a barmaid slept, and found a four-poster with feather bedding blazing. Servants ran to get water from a tank in the yard, while Henry tried to smother the fire with blankets. The cause of the fire was not identified. No-one had been to the room during the previous hour. Henry must have been a competent businessman, for later in 1871, after Henry Kelleher, the popular landlord of the "Mariner's Compass" in Murray Street, died suddenly intestate, he bought the goodwill of the old pub and the hairdresser's shop next door for 210 pounds by tender from the government. Robert Watt took over the license in November. When the Annual Licensing Meeting came in December, the standard of hotels was carefully assessed under the new law passed that year, and many old houses lost their licenses. The "Duke of Clarence" was one that came under close attention. It contained a bar, parlour, sitting room, tap room, and three unfurnished bedrooms. The license was at first refused, but was granted later on appeal. Then on August 1872, at the Quarterly Licensing Meeting, the license was transferred to William Morton, who advertised the change in the Mercury to alert potential customers. One of Mitson's regular customers was Thomas Bolton, who lived close by and had patronised the "Duke" for many years, with a running account. Both he and his wife were in the habit of getting drink from the pub, and of borrowing small sums of money, generally from Hannah Mitson. Over two years the only money the Boltons had paid back were two sums, one of 5 and one of 1 pound. The Mitsons had not pressed for payment because Bolton had told them of an income from England, paid half-yearly, and when it missed one half-year, they were induced to extend credit further. But the promise had not been fulfilled. Henry took Bolton to the Supreme Court sitting as a small debts court, where Bolton admitted that the drink had been supplied and the money lent, but denied that he owed anything like the 30p 7s 2d that was claimed. The court returned a verdict for only 5 pounds. It was a good house to be landlord of, so it is strange that Mitson moved on, and down the scale. His next pub was the "Freemason's Arms" on the south-west corner of Murray and Patrick Streets, opposite St Mary's Catholic Cathedral. This was one of the oldtime pubs, laid below the level of the street. The front parlour was much lower than the bar. According to the Critic, there was nothing rowdy about the "Freemason's Arms". It did an excellent bar and jug trade, and the two parlours were occupied every evening by card parties. The neighbourhood around the pub was mixed. "Nearly every one drank in those days and now and then when the liquor gained the upper hand of the gentleman or lady who were imbibing some people saw red and became a nuisance not only to themselves but a nuisance to the better behaved folk around them. At the Annual Licencing Meeting in December 1872, Mitson failed to gain a license for the "Freemason's Arms". When the Superintendant of Police, and the Police Committee, visited the house the alterations that were needed to bring it up to the required standard were not completed. Mitson had taken over from John Bain, and intended to completely renovate the old pub. Mitson's lawyer, J W Graves, appeared on his behalf, but it was agreed to withdraw the application. The repairs were completed in time for Mitson to apply at the next Quarterly Licensing Court in February, when the license was granted. However, a problem arose in that John Bain, to whom Henry had paid 30 pound to leave the hotel, applied for a license for the "Royal Arch" hotel, in the angle of Warwick and Harrington Streets, just a stone's throw from the "Freemason's Arms". Bain had two lawyers present to press his claims, and Mitson was represented by Mr Lucas, who argued that the license was not needed. There were three other hotels within 150 yards, and Mitson had invested 150 pounds on renovations. The license was unanimously refused on the grounds that it was not required. It was at the "Freemason's Arms" that Henry was convicted of a breach of the licensing laws when a constable saw a group of young men and women going into the house between one and two in the morning of 23 March 1875. Being a first offence the Bench warned him, and fined him 20s plus costs. They must have ignored the earlier convictions at the "Duke of Clarence". In September 1877 the Tasmanian Mail reports Mitson as a resident of Cam, near Burnie, but in December 1877 his licence was transferred to the "Plough and Harrow" Hotel on the north-eastern corner of Murray and Bathurst Streets, opposite the State Library today. The strip of Murray Street between Patrick and Bathurst Streets was one of the most notorious zones in old Hobart. In Hobart's early days this neighbourhood was likened to Hogarth's famous picture of "Gin Lane". A pawnbrokers' shop stood on the corner and to watch the stream of human driftwood which floated past, a pub signed the "Plough and Harrow" kept guard over one lane of the eastern side, and its back premises abutted on those which bounded the "Pop Shop". Murray Street on both sides extending from Bathurst Street to Patrick Street was a red-hot locality. This area was full of drink shops of the lowest order. It started with the "Plough and Harrow" on the east side, took in the "White Conduit", the "Birmingham Arms", and the "Turf" a few doors up. On the west side were the "Golden Cross", the "Sir John Franklin", and the "Holyrood", which came on later in the day, and held a higher reputation than any of its colleagues. … the reduction of brothels and the cleaning out of central Murray Street led the fate of the Plough and Harrow, which was a drinking shop with an unenviable character. Yet a third description adds to the portrait of a fairly low class pub. It had no room for boarders; in fact, nearly all its floor space, with the exception of that which was used for private purposes by the licensee, was devoted to conviviality and the dispensing of forty-rod grog. Inside the Plough and Harrow, and in its immediate vicinity, were enacted scenes which would have eclipsed some of Hogarth's famous pictures of Gin Lane and Seven Dials. The principal patrons were whalers, soldiers, sailors, deadbeats, members of the demi-monde, and the rag-tag of the city. The police of the day drew big bags from this source, and the pawn shop next doorhad to admit that without the cooperation of its neighbour, business would be bad. The houses which stretched away northward of the old inn were of diversified architecture, and sheltered scarlet women and other persons whose reputations would not stand much criticism. There was generally a pretty lively time in this locality about midnight when the Riff, the Alexandra, and the Albert had dismissed their midnight gatherings. It closed during the 1880s, and Henry Mitson was one of the last landlords. On 14 November 1859 he married Hannah Emma Bradley Hill, also called on the affidavid Anna Jane Bradley Hill, (263), aged 19. The reason for the confusion about her name seems to arise from her mother's matrimonial history. On the birth records of their children her maiden name is given as Bradley. She was born Anne Jane Bradley in 1840, daughter of Samuel Bradley, an ex-convict who arrived in 1825 on the Lady East. This ship arrived on 9 April 1825, having left London on 16 December 1824, with 210 male convicts on board. When the ship arrived in Hobart the surgeon-superintendent William McDowell faced an inquiry into charges of gross ill-treatment and excessive punishment, but was exonerated by the magistrate. . |

| Note* | Notes from Louis Daniels WALTER HENRY MITSON (1864-1943) and CATHERINE MARY WARD (1873-1915) and EMILY THERESA DICKENS (1866-1945). Walter Mitson was born on 21 February 1864, in the "Union" Tavern, Campbell St, Hobart, (6761). He was the first of their children to survive infancy. Young Walter, aged 10, caught the attention of Hobart in 1874 when he suffered a spectacular accident: On Saturday last a boy named Walter Mitson, whose parents keep the Freemason's Arms in Murray Street, met with an extraordinary accident which luckily was unattended with any serious consequences. Whilst walking along the hill known as Balker's Hill, Upper Murray Street, the earth gave way from beneath him and he fell a distance of about 30 feet, rolling down the hill until he came in contact with a large stone that projected about 2 yards above a pond. As the pond is between 10 and 11 feet deep the little fellow would most likely have been drowned had he fallen in. He was conveyed home and medical assistance promptly obtained, but this happily was not required, as beyond being stunned, and sustaining a few slight bruises on his side, he was not seriously hurt. We trust that this will act as a caution to parents against allowing their young children to go near such dangerous places. Walter married Catherine Mary Ward, aged 17, on 27 November 1889, in St John the Baptist, West Hobart, with witnesses Emmeline Mitson and Catherine Bowman. Catherine was born 16 January 1873, in Hobart, (3051), daughter of Michael Ward and Catherine Foley. Walter and Catherine Mitson settled at Mascot, in Sydney, while he worked on the coastal shipping carrying cargoes between various Australian ports. Later he worked on the waterfront as a porter. Catherine died during the First World War, in 1915 at Redfern, (10166), after several years as an invalid with aenemia. She left her daughter to care for her two sons, aged 13 and 11 when she died. In 1919 Walter married Emily Theresa Dickens, a widow, from Tasmania, in Sydney (11869). She had five children from her first marriage, including a daughter who ultimately inherited the Mitson home at Mascot. Emily was born 12 April 1866, in Hobart, (8471), daughter of Edward Williams and Mary Ann Foght. She married Michael Dickens, 23, on 28 September 1886, Hobart, (471). Michael died on 1 April 1895, Hobart, (46), aged 34. This is the branch of the family that Trix Kelly knew least about. She knew the sons of the family, remembering Walter from when she was a very young child, and he was already married. "I do remember, however, that he was a sailor and one of the ships on which he was a crewman was wrecked somewhere on the New South Wales coast. On board among the passengers was a woman with an infant. I cannot recall the the circumstances but can vaguely remember an account in The Australasian of Walter rescuing the baby. Somebody wrapped the child in oilskins or something similar to protect it from the water as far as possible, and Walter swam with it to shore strapped to his back. Walter settled on the mainland and I don't think that his family saw him after that." Walter died on 25 November 1943, at his residence, Mascot, Sydney, (10351), aged 79. Emily Theresa Mitson died in 1945, Redfern, (27938), aged 79. His daughter Edith returned to Hobart to marry Clifford Mitchell in 1920. |
