I wonder does drunk and disorderly in 1900 mean the same as it does in 2013.

When I was a Lad, I used to get taken to the Circus to see the Fat Lady with the Tattoos,

I see there were the same anomalies in sentencing then as there are now.One was drunk and disorderly and discharged, another, for the same offence received 21 days hard labour.

I wouldn't have liked to be the landlord who told any of these ladies that they had had enough for one night!
