Attempted burglary
In July 1898 a attempted burglary was foiled by the occupants: "An exciting encounter with a burglar was experienced at an early hour yesterday morning by Mrs R. M. Serjeant, Redan. The lady was disturbed about half-past two by seeing a glimmer of light from one of the rooms of her borne. She left her room in order to investigate, and noticed a dark figure slip hurriedly into the pantry. The discovery was naturally a great shock to Mrs Serjeant, but, with great presence of mind, the simply commanded the marauder to come out immediately. He did so, but at the same time he made a dash for the outer door, and succeeded in getting away just as Mr Serjeant, who had been aroused by the unusual sounds, appeared on the scene, armed with a loaded revolver."
