| [Sheffield Daily Telegraph Thu 04 Dec 1873. ARSON at OUSEFLEET. Benjamin Drury, 46, agricultural labourer, was indicted for maliciously setting fire to a stack of wheat, the property of Jonathan Scutt, at Ousefleet, on the 20th September last. He admitted that he committed the crime, but said he was at the time suffering from delirium. Mr. Wheelbouse, who prosecuted, stated that Ousefleet was near Goole, at the extreme corner of the West Riding, and that the prosecutor was a farmer (since dead), and the prisoner was his son-in-law. On the morning of the day mentioned he went deliberately into Mr. Scutt's stackyard and set fire to the stack. Prisoner expressed deep sorrow for what he had done, maintaining that if he had been in his right mind at the time he should not have committed the crime. The jury after an hour's deliberation, found the prisoner not guilty, on the ground of insanity, and the Judge ordered him to be detained during her Majesty's pleasure.] [J S - 74yr.] |

| [1881 Morris Featherstone from Spaldington was farming Elm Tree (as the tenant of Mr Thomas Jackson) and was living there with his wife Emily and their young family. Sadly Mrs Feathersone died aged 29 in 1884 and by the following year the 154 acre farm was occupied by John Scutt. John Scutt was in 1885 almost 60 and was originally from Whitgift. He was married to Susannah who was ten years younger than him [born West Butterwick] and they had five daughters [Jane, Sarah Ann, Minnie, Florence and Lilian] and one son, Jonathan, who was then aged about 20. The family had moved several times before they came to Eastrington - the older children were born at Staddlethorpe and the younger ones at Adlingfleet, while by 1881 they were living on a farm of 120 acres at Amcotts. For a time Florence Ada Scutt, daughter of John and Susannah, was school monitor. Her brother Jonathan, the only son, married Eliza Jane Holey on June 16th 1890, which was 'Feast Monday'. Two years later the couple moved to farm at Duncotes which stood opposite Gate farm at Balkholme. They had a large family of eight sons and five daughters but not all of them survived to adulthood. In January 1901 John William 'Willie' Scutt, their 10 year old son, died of scarlet fever and in January 1923 Norman Scutt, aged 12, their youngest son, died of croup. In 1908 Mr and Mrs Jonathan Scutt moved to take over Elm Tree farm from Mr Scutt's father and they remained there until about 1937 when they moved to a smaller house ('The Nook' on the corner of Pinfold Street). Their youngest surviving son Arthur Calvert Septimus took over at Elm Tree. They celebrated their golden wedding in 1940 and Mrs Scutt then recalled how at one time she made and sold a hundred pounds of butter a week which was sold at 8d a pound.] [Sheffield Daily Telegraph Thu 04 Jul 1901.
