Phillip Henry Allnatt, landlord of "The Bell" Inn, Crowmarsh, was summoned for permitting drunkenness on his licensed premises, on June 27th. Mr. J. St. Laurence Stallwood defended. P.c. Lambonrne stated that on the day in question he found a man named Tuffrey sitting in the tap-room of 'The Bell," with a pot of beer in front of him. He was drunk. Tuffrey informed witness that he had been in the house, where he was supplied with beer. Kate Allnatt, wife of the defendant, said that Tuffrey appeared to be perfectly sober. Witness only served him with one pint of beer. Defendant gave similar evidence. Israel Scutts, aged 73, spoke to being in the house at the same time as Tuffrey. The latter did not appear to be drunk. The Bench dismissed the case, but cautioned defendant.] [I S - 82yr.]

[IGI also states R S b:1790 Apr 18] [Oxford Journal, Saturday 22 January 1825. Robert Francis, Charles Bissett, Caleb Wheeler, Richard Scudds jun., and Gabriel Seymour, for a riot and assault, were ordered to be imprisoned in the county gaol and kept to hard labour, viz. Francis, 6 months, Wheeler, Scudds, and Blissett, 3 months each, and Seymour two months. The prisoner Crook, who is not more than 16 years of age, is a hardened and most determined thief, and has been several times before convicted and imprisoned for serious offences against the laws, and the five persons for a riot are all bad characters. The riot committed by them was of a most dangerous nature: they, and least 100 others, assembled on the night of the 5th in company with at Wallingford, to take away his haulin, when he and three of his servants, endeavouring to save the property, were violently assaulted with fold-stakes,stones, &c. and greatly injured, as well as a constable and tithingman, in endeavouring to suppress the riot, and the mob, after setting fire to nearly all the haulin in the field, had the audacity to go to the farmer's house and demolish two of his windows; and it is well for the prisoners that the wounds received by one of the servants did not prove mortal, as they would then have had to answer for the offence with their lives.] [ Reading Mercury, Berkshire, Saturday 22 December 1860. Inquest before John Henry Cooke, Esq. - On Wednesday, the 19th inst., at Crowmarsh Gifford, on the body of John Wilder aged 57, who died very suddenly on the evening of Saturday last, the 15th inst. It appeared in evidence before the coroner and jury, that the deceased, on Saturday last, when he came home to his dinner complained of palpitation of the heart, and could not get on with his work but after he had dined, he returned to his work as usual and when he came home for the day, a quarter past five, seemed in his usual health, and had some coffee and a rasher of bacon about half past six. At seven o'clock he left home for the purpose of going to a shop at Wallingford, but within ten minutes he was found by Richard Scudds lying near the Bell Inn front door in the agonies of death; and before Mr. Charles Barrett, surgeon of Wallingford, could reach him he had expired. Mr. Barrett stated that the deceased came to his surgery about six months ago, complaining palpitation of the heart, for which he gave him a box of pills; he never saw him again until last Saturday night, the 15th inst., when he found him placed in a chair outside the front-door of the Bell Inn, and on examination, saw he was quite dead. He was decidedly of opinion that death arose from disease of the heart, induced by rheumatism, and the jury immediately returned a verdict in accordance with such opinion.] [R S - 76yr.]
