    2. Julia Mosman
    3. WEST BRITON AND CORNWALL ADVERTISER 19 DECEMBER 1856 – transcribed by Julia Mosman . LOCAL INTELLIGENCE . READINGS OF "UNCLE TOM'S CABIN" - On Monday evening, Mrs. M.E. WEBB, a coloured native of Philadelphia, gave at the Assembly-room, Truro, a public reading of a new version of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," arranged by the authoress Mrs. H.B. STOWE. Mrs. Webb is the daughter of a Spanish gentleman and a female slave from Virginia; and in July last she arrived in this country, and read this arranged version of Mrs. Stowe's celebrated work, at the Duchess of Sutherland's in London, before a distinguished assemblage of the nobility; since which she has given her readings, with equal success, in some of the large provincial towns. Mrs. Webb's readings on Monday night were distinguished by much feeling and intelligence; and in the dialogues her flexible voice enabled her to individualise the characters with effect. The "readings", however, do not seem to have been appreciated by the public of Truro, there being a much smaller audience than might have been expected. [By another article in this issue, there was a "gale" blowing, which greatly affected shipping - and evidently attendance at entertainments.] CONCERT AT ST. AUSTELL - Miss Louisa Foote HAY's concert, on Tuesday last, was thinly attended, but those present were highly pleased with her sweetness of voice and artistic ability. The "Emigrant’s Farewell" and the "Queen of the May" were loudly applauded, and repeated on the call of the audience. Miss Alice HAY was especially successful in "Rory O'More" and the "Dashing White Sergeant," which songs were greeted with an encore. ST. COLUMB HARMONIC SOCIETY - This society gave its seventh concert on Wednesday evening the 10th inst., when the spacious room was crowded to excess with a respectable audience, and every part went off with considerable éclat, many of the pieces being encored, especially the glees. It may appear to be invidious to single one performer as having done well, when all no doubt did their best; but we cannot refrain from expressing our high appreciation of the performances of Miss M. COAD and Miss M.A. BARRY, who in their several parts displayed so much good taste and execution. The society was much assisted by the services of Messrs. MALLETT and WIDDON, of Wadebridge; and it should be observed that Mr. James RICHARDS was, as usual, successful in every part, whether on the violin or piano-forte. His execution and his fine voice render him a great acquisition to these concerts, and the inhabitants of St. Columb and the neighbourhood cannot but feel thankful to him for his services! in relieving the monotony of a St. Columb winter's evening. It is, however, much to be desired that he could meet with a better second violin to accompany him - a result which would add to the efficiency of the instrumental part of these concerts. . CLERICAL INTOLERANCE - Under this heading a correspondent writes us a long narrative, in which he states that for many years past the members of the Penny Clothing Club, in the parish of Altarnun, have been permitted to select their own goods where they thought proper, either in their own parish or at Launceston, and invariably about three-fourths of the whole number have taken their goods of Mr. HICKS, shopkeeper, who lives in the village of Altarnun. . The treasurer of the club, however, having been superseded in the office of constable of the parish by Mr. Hicks, there has been some misunderstanding, and the Rev. R. H. TRIPP, the vicar of the parish, and chairman of the clothing club, has taken part against Mr. Hicks, who is a Wesleyan local preacher; and on the 1st instant, the chairman and treasurer of the clothing club met and came to the resolution that "all the members of the club shall go to Launceston for parcels," a distance of from eight to twelve miles each way from the residence of the various members of the society. . Opposition arose in the parish to the course taken by the vicar, and when the members, according to custom, attended to pay their monthly contributions, many of them refused to go to Launceston for their goods, considering that the endeavour of the vicar to make them do so was an arbitrary power over the club which he had no right to assume. . It appears there was great confusion at the meeting, and our correspondent gives a long account of the altercation which took place between some of the club and Mr. Tripp. We insert, however, only the general statement given above, and think the parties had better endeavour to compose their differences, and live amicably together in the parish, as in years past. It would be a subject of regret to find a useful club broken up through differences of this kind. . UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, LONDON - At the late annual general meeting of the University College Medical Society, for the nomination of officers for the ensuing year, we observe that Mr. Edwin ANDREW, M.B., whom we mentioned in our last number as having obtained the assistant surgeoncy to St. Pancras Infirmary, has had the honour to be elected president. . THE LATE MRS CURGENVEN - A correspondent informs us that the husband of this aged lady (whose death in her 105th year we noticed last week) Captain Richard CURGENVEN, R.N., obtained his rank of post-captain for his services in Lord Rodney's celebrated action with Admiral LeGrasse, in 1782. His death took place considerably more than a half a century ago. Among her junior relatives, was her nephew-in-law, the Rev. William CURGENVEN, who for forty-six years was rector of Lamorran, and who reached the age of seventy-eight; him also, she has several years outlived. . HELSTON - On Friday last, the Loe Pool was broken at the bar. For several days previously relays of men were employed in cutting through the shingle, which in consequence of not having been broken for three years, was a work of great difficulty. The whole of the valley for nearly two miles presents a very desolate aspect, from the great accumulation of deposit from the country above. The mine at Nansloe is now being proceeded with, the sett for working it having been recently granted. . ENCLOSING CALLINGTON COMMON - Lord Ashburton having, as Lord of the Manor, applied to the Enclosure Commissioners for permission, under the Enclosure Act, to enclose the above common, a meeting was held before one of the commissioners, Mr. LANGWORTHY, at Golding's Hotel, Callington, on Friday last, when the various parties interested in the common rights, attended to establish their claims. Mr. BOGER (firm of Boger and Bewes) attended on behalf of Mr. George STRODE, of Newsham, who holds large property in the neighbourhood, and in consequence of that gentleman entering a claim for one-third of the manorial rights under the ancient deeds of Kellington land, by which a portion of the property had descended to his client, the meeting was adjourned to give Mr. Boger time to prove his claim, the commissioner contenting himself with merely visiting the disputed property. . LISKEARD CHRISTMAS FAIR - This fair, held on Monday last, was a good one. Fat bullocks sold at from 60s. to 63s. per cwt.; sheep, 6yd. to 6 ½ d. per lb. Store cattle were in demand. . REWARDS FOR PILOTS' SERVICES - During the late gales, the brig "Mars" (the captain of which was committed last week for murder) was brought into Penzance pier, having thirty inches of water in her hold. The Mousehole pilots claimed GBP 200 for their services, which claim is not yet settled. When the gale was at its height on Tuesday morning week, at daybreak, a barque was observed off Mousehole Island in distress. The life boat was got out at Penzance and conveyed to Newlyn, where it was manned by Newlyn and Penzance men and launched. . Previously, however, two Newlyn boats (one of them Capt. CLELAND's) put off at the hazard of the lives of their crews, and boarded the barque, which proved to be the "Alice Thompson," of South Shields, of 308 tons register, from Madras and Poondy, laden with rice and red wood for London. The crew were utterly exhausted, and but for this timely assistance the vessel must have gradually drifted ashore on the beach near Newlyn. She was anchored, and about four o'clock the same afternoon came into the harbour. The pilots and boats' crews received GBP 88 for their services. . The barque "General Bertrand," Le COMPTE, from Sierra Leone for Ronen, with palm oil, ground nuts and benne-seed, was brought in by Abraham STEVENS, licensed Scilly pilot No. 11, of the pilot cutter "Atlantic," a complete wreck - with decks swept and all hands worn out with fatigue. She had only been saved by the Scilly men at great risk. The "General Bertrand" lost a man overboard. She will discharge at Penzance and repair. . The captain promised the pilots, at the time when they thought they could not possibly save his vessel and cargo, GBP 300 if they brought him safely into port, and that sum has been paid them by Lloyds agent at Penzance, Mr. R. PEARCE. Although a promise at sea is not binding on land, the captain would not retract his word. . The brig "African," FRANKLIN, from London with a general cargo for the river Gambia, came in. She was struck by a heavy sea on the 7th, and during the nights of the 8th and 9th, was dismasted in a hurricane. She has bulwarks stove and has lost foremast, bowsprit, and main-top-mast, with all their sails, rigging and gear. Two Mousehole pilot luggers boarded the "African," when they got a jury-foremast rigged, canvas set, and brought her in. GBP 250 was agreed to be paid the Mousehole men for their services. . FIRE - About twelve o'clock on the night of the 11th instant, as police-constable GAY was going down Pydar Street, Truro, he saw a strong light in a house occupied by William BRAY, labourer, and smoke was at the time issuing from the windows. He knocked at the door and called "fire", and then lifted the window and got in, but the room was so full of smoke that he could not remain there. Shortly afterwards, Bray opened the door, and he and his family rushed into the street, not stopping to dress themselves. The fire was soon extinguished by the policeman and Bray; it broke out in consequence of some articles of clothing having been placed before the fire to dry when Bray and his family went to bed; and they were all asleep when the policeman knocked at the door. Had the fire been burning ten minutes longer, it could not have been stopped without the use of engines. . TYWARDREATH PETTY SESSIONS - On Monday last, John MARTIN of Fowey, van proprietor, was informed against by Mr. JOHNSON, Supervisor of Excise, for having let his van to hire on a day then named, he not being duly licensed to do so. The case was proved and a fine of GBP 25 imposed. . TRURO POLICE - On Saturday last, William THOMAS, a gardener, was charged with stealing a quantity of potatoes from Mr. Thomas COLLINS, Church Lane, Truro. The case was remanded until Monday, and then heard before the Mayor and Mr. Paddon. [Mr. Collins rents a small farm at Newham, where there is a farm house, three rooms of which were rented by Thomas. Adjoining Thomas' kitchen was a cellar for potatoes &c., the door of which was secured by a staple and padlock. On several occasions Collins missed some potatoes, and at looking at the door on Saturday, noticed the staple had been drawn. Mr. Thomas was not at home, but his sister-in-law was there, and Mr. Collins told her about the break-in. She said she knew nothing about it, but when Collins went upstairs, he saw a bag and a basket on the floor, and saw potatoes in them. He gave information to Mr. NASH, police superintendent, who went to the place where Thomas was at work, near Penair, and took him into custody.] Thomas was! committed for trial at the sessions. . On Wednesday, before the Mayor, Mr. Stokes, Mr. Nankivell, and Mr. Paddon, Charles LEVY, furniture broker &c. of Kenwyn-street, Truro, was summoned for assaulting Catherine, the wife of Zacharias ANDREW, of Kenwyn-street, who carries on a similar business very near Levy. From complainant's statement, it appeared that on the 15th instant, a man from the country was in Mrs. Andrew's shop to buy furniture; but shortly afterwards, he left and went into Levy's shop. Mrs. Andrew followed, and also went into Levy's shop, waiting, as she said, for the man to come out and finish the business with her. . She further said that Levy, without speaking a word, took hold of her, threw her out of the doorway, struck her a violent blow on the side with his fist, and threw after her a cast-iron boiler, which struck her in the back so severely that she was motionless two or three minutes afterwards. Mary NORTHEY, of Daniell Street, stated that she witnessed the assault. Mr. EDWARDS, solicitor, appeared on behalf of the defendant, and called two of Mr. Levy's assistants, who stated that they saw no assault committed. The magistrates, however, were satisfied that the charge had been proved, and they fined defendant 10s. and costs, or one month's imprisonment; the fine was immediately paid. . John GIDLEY, of Pydar-street, was charged with having assaulted his wife on the 14th instant. Last Sunday and on other occasions he had beaten her, even when she had a child in her arms. When he beat her on the 14th, she came to the police station, and said her life was in danger from his threats and ill-usage. On Wednesday last, however, she begged the magistrates to allow her to withdraw the charge, as he had promised not to ill-treat her again. The charge was therefore allowed for the time to stand over. . REDRUTH COUNTY COURT - At this court held on the 10th and 11th inst., there were 225 new plaints entered and seventeen commitment summonses. There were 106 orders, a great number of which were consents, and the remaining 119 were either paid into court before the return day or arranged out of court. None of the cases presented any feature of public interest. . CHARGE OF BURGLARY - On Friday last, at Penzance, before Mr. T.S. BOLITHO, county magistrate, Richard and Frances PELLEW, and Josiah JAMES, of Kirtenwood, St. Erth, were charged with having been concerned in a burglary in that parish on the Tuesday night previous. . Early on Wednesday morning it was found that the farm house of Mr. James TREWHELLA, at Treganhorne, had been broken into. The dairy looks on a waste plot of ground behind the house, and thirty or forty yards from it is a public pathway. The bars which protect the dairy window had been forced off, apparently with an iron bar, and this, with the marks on the sill, shewed that the thieves had obtained an entrance through the window. . Sixty pounds of pork in pickle, a sack of flour, and a pot of lard had been carried off. The sack that had contained the flour was found outside the dairy window, and a piece of ribbon in a basket in the dairy. Footsteps were perceptible outside the window but not clear enough to trace. The night being stormy the rogues accomplished their work without disturbing Mr. Trewhella or any member of his family. . >From information received, superintendent ARMITAGE, of the West Cornwall Railway police, went and searched the houses of James and Pellew. He found some pork in James's house, not concealed. In Pellew's, on going upstairs, the officer found Frances Pellew lying on a bed, pretending to be in a fit. After a hard struggle she was lifted off the bed, when underneath her was found a gown, and in it thirteen pieces of pork, which were identified by Mrs. Trewhella and her niece. Frances Pellew was committed to the assizes for trial; Richard Pellew and Josiah James were discharged. . CORONERS INQUESTS - Inquests have been held before Mr. Hichens, county coroner: On the 11th inst., in the parish of Breage, on the body of Jenifer READ, aged 41 years, who was found lying on the floor of the kitchen of her dwelling-house on the preceeding day. She had shortly before been at the house of a neighbour for some milk, apparently in perfect health, and from the short time that had elapsed must have fallen almost immediately on her return therefrom. Verdict, "natural death." . On the following day in the parish of Illogan, on the body of George FOLLY, aged about seven years. The deceased was employed on the preceding day driving the horses before a plough, when the horses took fright and ran off with the plough, when the horses took fright and ran off with the plough, whereby the deceased's clothes became entangled therein, and he was drawn a considerable distance on the ground, and received such injuries as to cause his death on the same day. Verdict, "Accidental death." . On Tuesday last, in the parish of Crowan, on the body of Michael GUILLINNANE, aged 50 years. The deceased was an Irishman, but had lived in Crowan for some years earning a livelihood by dealing in rags and bones. He was quite well on Saturday last, and was at Redruth following his occupation, but early on Sunday morning he awoke and complained of being unwell, and died in about an hour after. Verdict, "natural death." . On the same day in the parish of Phillack, on the body of John PHILLIPS, aged 69 years. The deceased was a surface labourer at Great Wheal Alfred mine in that parish, and was at the mine on the 15th assisting in the removal of a capstan rope from the capstan when he was struck by some part of the machinery and knocked into the crank pit, whereby he received such injuries as occasioned his death on the same day. Verdict, "accidental death." . The following inquests have been held before Mr. Goo., county coroner: On the 25th ult., at Kilkhampton, on the body of a little boy named Daniel DAYMAN, eight years old, who, whilst playing with some children near a quarry pit, accidentally fell in and was drowned. Verdict, "accidental death," and the jury were unanimously of opinion that the committee of works, in connection with the new Methodist schoolroom, had been unmindful of their duty in not securing the entrance to the premises, which they requested might be effectually done immediately, and so to be kept for the future. . On the 11th instant, in the parish of Poundstock, on the body of Mary PARMINGTON, aged seventy-two. The deceased was a widow, residing in a cottage by the roadside, with another woman called Mary CONGDON, who had gone out to work at eight o'clock in the morning, leaving the deceased in bed and alone in the house. About twelve o'clock, James SLEEMAN, a farmer of Week St. Mary, was passing the premises, and observed smoke issuing from the door, which induced him to go to the spot, where he found the deceased lying on her back on the floor, with her clothes burning. He immediately extinguished the fire, and called to his assistance Mrs. BRAY, a neighbour. Mr. JUKE, surgeon, was also in attendance, but the deceased was so much burnt that she expired about half-past four o'clock the same afternoon. Verdict, "accidental death." The injuries which the poor woman had received were of such a serious nature that she was unable to state how the accident had occurred. . INTERNATIONAL NEWS . By the Journal de Constantinople, we learn that a Persian proclamation has been issued, accepting the war declared by England. The same authority states that the English have already taken possession of the Isles of Ormus and Karrack. The Russian troops are concentrated on the Araxes. Letters have been received which allege that the Russian intervention will be carried into effect as soon as Prince Bariantinski, the Governor General of the Caucasus, shall have been officially informed of the disembarkation of the English at Bushire. . A letter from Paris, dated Tuesday evening, in the Morning Herald, says: "It is believed here that the difficulty between England and Persia is in a fair way of being settled in Constantinople. Lord Stratford de Redcliffe has, it is said, arranged the whole with Feroukh Kahn, the Persian Ambassador, who came furnished with full powers for the purpose."

Well the lazy thing did eventually return to Australia two years later ... looking even fatter from eating pasties. But even pastie bribes will not tempt her this year, so I shall have to find so other mode of transport.

    2. A & B Currie
    3. Hi, I've checked the image and it is as transcribed. So you couldn't believe everything you read in the paper even then! The West Briton (Friday, 12 Dec 1856) reported the following marriage: > MARRIAGES > > At St. Ives, Mr. Thomas THOMPSON TO Miss Mary FAULL, both of that town. However, both the St. Ives marriage register and the civil marriage registration show the names as James THOMPSON and Mary Faull WILLIAMS. With due allowance for spelling of the groom's surname, those records agree with the report appearing the same day in The Royal Cornwall Gazette (Friday, 12 Dec 1856): "At St. Ives, Mr. James THOMSON, to Miss Mary Faull WILLIAMS."
