Hi
It has nothing to do with the hospital J Scalley is attending a postman's dinner and proposes a toast of Good Health to the Postman General.
I think I can say that because it doesn't seem to be the one your after.
Well not unless your John Scalley was a postman!

The other John Scalley on the index is a labourer from Lower Street charged with disorderly conduct and other worse offenses .Let's hope he's not yours either.

Ah thank you so much Ciderdrinker....The first one is him.He was a Postman :)

I was of the understanding he had something to do with the Hospital around here,maybe the board of governors or something...

Thanks again,I appreciate you looking him up :)
