| [Reading Mercury Sat 09 Jun 1866. FATAL CARRIAGE ACCIDENT in READING. A very distressing accident occurred in this town on Saturday afternoon last. It appears that Mr. & Mrs. Horwood, of Waltham Street, Lawrence, had been to Reading on business, and on their return, the carriage in which they were riding came into collision with a brake in which were two horses and the violence of the concussion was so great that Mrs. Horwood was thrown out and sustained injuries which terminated fatally in less than a quarter of an hour. Strange to say .... The unfortunate lady was removed to the lodge, Victoria Square, occupied by Mr. Scutts, but before medical aid could be obtained, she ceased to exist. .... The Coroner, then the verdict is "Accidental Death."] [W Skutts - 74yr.] [Reading Mercury, Saturday 12 February 1881.

| [Berkshire Chronicle, Berkshire, Saturday 29 March 1856. DREADFUL DEATH OF A FEMALE FROM BURNING. On Monday last an inquest was held at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, before J. J. Blandv, Esq., the borough coroner, on the body of Ann Pearce, 17 years of age, who had lately left her parents and lived in Hooker's Green, where on Sunday last, her clothes caught fire, and running out of doors, she became enveloped in flames, her body being frightfully burnt in various parts, and she expired at the Hospital on Monday morning from the injuries then sustained. The particulars of this shocking case will be found detailed in the following evidence: Sarah Pearce said "I'm the wife of William Pearce, of No. 2, Coley Terrace, weaver. The deceased was my daughter, and was 17 years of age last September. She lived with me and her father until the 31st of December last when she left her home, and has not since returned. I have not seen her since last Wednesday week. I knew she was living at a house on Hooker's Green, and I went there soon after she had left her home, and I begged and entreated of her to come home, but she would not. Yesterday, between three and four o'clock, a young girl came to me and told me that my daughter was burned to death, and was taken to the Hospital. I instantly went to the Hospital, and saw my daughter, who was in a painful state of suffering from the burns, and could not speak to me. Mr. H. W. Langdon said: I'm the House Surgeon to the Royal Berks Hospital. On Sunday afternoon, about half-past three o'clock, the deceased was brought to the hospital, suffering from extensive burns on the surface of the body and extremities; she was in a state of great suffering, and told me that the injuries had been sustained by her clothes having become ignited whilst sitting by the fire. On examining the body I found that there was great difficulty of breathing, and I discovered that the skin over the whole surface of the body with the exception of a portion of the face, chest, and soles of the feet, was in a state of disorganisation, and in a burnt and discoloured condition; her pulse were scarcely perceptible, but, from the administration of some restoratives, she in measure recovered. She appeared to me in a state of excitement, and under the influence of liquor. The case was treated by me as it appeared to require, but she got gradually worse, and died about one o'clock this morning; and my opinion is that death was caused by shock to the system, produced by the amount of injury inflicted, and most probably giving rise to inflammation of the organs of the chest and other parts. I sent for Mr. Bulley, who considered the case one which would terminate fatally in a few hours, which proved to be the case. Amelia Woodrose said: I live at Hooker's Green, a house kept by a man named Higgs; the deceased lived there and also another girl named Rivers. On Sunday afternoon, about two o'clock, just after had done dinner, the deceased was sitting on a young man's knee named Scutts, and her clothes caught fire in the place. She was sitting close to the fire, and there was a fender in front. As soon I saw her clothes were on fire, I tried to extinguish it with my shawl, but could not do it; and the deceased ran out of the house to the bottom of the yard, where a man put something over her, and extinguished the flames; and she was conveyed to the Hospital. Deceased was sober at the time the fire happened. We had only a pot of beer amongst four of us. William Scutts had been in the house about an hour, and he assisted in putting out the fire, and burnt his hands. William Higgs said: l am a blacksmith, and live at No.2 Hooker's Green. I pay 4s. week for the house, and let out the rooms by the week. I have sometimes "ladies" and sometimes "gentlemen." Yesterday I had three lodgers, the deceased, Amelia Woodrose, and Mary Ann Rivers. William Scutts was at the house. About ten minutes past three o'clock I heard a screaming, and soon after saw the deceased come out of the room with her clothes on fire. I attempted to stop her as she passed me, but she knocked me down and ran about ten yards, when man named Freeman threw a sack over her, and she was taken to the hospital. They were all sober. After bearing the evidence, the jury returned verdict of "Accidental death."] [Reading Mercury Saturday 21 January 1860. Mysterious Robbery.

Charge of Manslaughter named Brown, well known for his pugilistic abilities, has been apprehended upon coroner's warrant and committed the Reading Gaol take his trial at the next assize for the manslaughter of a journeyman tailor named Henry Skutts. It would seem that both men were at a public-house in Reading, and Skutts, who was alleged was under the influence drink, annoyed the prisoner Brown his chaffing. He left the house, but returned, and Brown prevented his admission. A few words passed between them and Skutts stepped back. Brown, who was standing on the steps the house, walked forward and struck a blow on the head, which knocked him down flat on back and rendered him senseless.

Charge of manslaughter at Reading. George Brown, 32, hawker, was indicted with the manslaughter of Henry Skutts, at Reading, in July last. Mr Arthur Welch was counsel for the prosecution, and Mr Gough defended. Eliza Salt said "I am the daughter of Mr. John Salt, who keeps the "Clifton," Caversham Road, Reading. On Tuesday the 15th of July, the prisoner, Skutts, and two other men were in the house. Skutts used some aggravating words to Brown. Skutts then went out, and I did not see what took place. I asked the men present not to let Skutts come back again. He had said at the door "If you are a fighting man come out and Brown went out. Brown afterwards returned and went out again. He then came in with Mr. Wiltshire, and assisted to bring in the deceased. Cross Examined: The deceased was behaving in a very bad manner using abominable language. I promised to let him have his beer for nothing if he would go away. Mary Ann Waite, No. 2 Weldale Street said "On the day mentioned I was standing at the door of my father's house and saw the two men Brown and Skutts. Brown struck Skutts, and knocked him down. A few minutes afterwards I saw the prisoner and Mr. Wiltshire carry Skutts into the "Clifton" and shut the door. Prisoner struck Skutts with his fist. Cross Examined: Prisoner struck Skutts with his fist. Edard Cooper said, "I am a tailor, and live near the "Clifton". I saw Skutts come from the "Clifton" and return. Brown met him at the door and prevented him from going in. Brown talked to Skutts for a minute or two and then went up with his fist and knooked him down. Brown then went into the "Clifton" and shut the door. I saw Mr. Wiltshire come and pick the man up". Cross-examined "I did not see much passion between either men". William Arthur Slayter said, "I live at No. 8, Caversham Road. I saw Brown and Skutts on the pavement opposite the "Clifton." Prisoner struck Skutts in the face and he fell to the ground. Charles Wiltshire said, "I live in the Caversham Road, next to the "Clifton." I saw Skutts leave the "Clifton" and return. I saw him pitched over the kerb into the street; I did not see what caused him to fall. I went to raise Skutts, and saw blood flowing profusely from the left ear. We afterwards took him into the "Clifton." Mr T L Walford, surgeon, said, "I was called to see Skutts. He was in a cab insensible. He was put to bed in the infirmary at the Workhouse. Next morning I found him worse; and the next day he died. I made a examination. He had suffered from a fall which had produced extravasation of blood on the scalp, and the brain was materially injured. The skull was fractured on the left side; and I have no doubt the fracture of the skull was the cause of death. Mr. Gough submitted that there was no evidence to go to the jury. Richard Rees, Caversham said "I recollect seeing Brown at the Clifton. He was sober and well-behaved. Skutts came in he was very much intoxicated. He made a great noise used abusive language. The prisoner said "My good man, go." Skutts went out, and on coming back he was in the attitude of fighting. Brown went to the door and opened it. He said to Brown "You are the fighting man," and Brown said, "Go home you silly old gentleman, go home, I don't want to hurt an old man like you. Brown went up to him and he fell down I could not say that Brown struck him with his one hand or his fist." The jury Acquitted the prisoner, and the Judge expressed his concurrence in the verdict. The Court rose.] [H Skutts - 59yr.] |
