It was not a pool table if it only had 4 pockets if it was made since about 1800. A 4 pocket table is most likely a bumper pool table.
Pocket billiards is very often called pool. The reason is simple...back in the day, circa turn of the century, rooms for betting on the horses were extremely prevalent. The horse betting pools were such that these rooms were called pool rooms for short. Because pocket billiards became so popular with men of the day, pocket billiards tables were installed in most of these "horse betting pool" rooms. Rapidly.."pool room" became known as a room with pocket billiard tables in it, and the pocket billiard game itself took on the misnomer.."pool".

When you scratch in pool, the cue ball goes into a pocket, resulting in a foul.
If you hit your opponent's ball into the pocket along with your own ball in pool, it is considered a legal shot and you continue your turn.
If you pocket your opponent's ball in pool, it is considered a foul. Your opponent will be awarded a ball in hand, meaning they can place the cue ball anywhere on the table for their next shot.
There are no pool tables that actually measure 4 foot by 8 foot. This appears to be a child's math question rather than a pool table question. The playable surface of an 8x4 pool table measures 88 inches by 44 inches. The back edge of the pocket is not a critical measurement on the table. There is no "top pocket". So, the distance from the farthest outside edge of the foot (the top) right pocket to the farthest outside edge of the bottom (the head) right pocket is 88 inches.
