West Briton and Cornwall Advertiser. Friday 10th October, 1856. MARAZION - Mr. R. R. MICHELL has been re-elected Mayor for the ensuing year. CHACEWATER - On Sunday last, the officers and teachers of the Chacewater Wesleyan Sunday School presented to Mr. EDMUND PAULL a handsomely bound volume in commemoration of the deep interest that he had taken in the school as a teacher and secretary for the period of twelve years. COUNTY COURT APPOINTMENT - Under the New County Court Act the registrar is precluded from holding a double office. Mr. PAYNTER of Penzance, had therefore to resign either the Penzance or the Redruth office. It is stated that he has resigned the latter, and that Mr. J. L. PETER, of Redruth, will be appointed registrar of the Redruth County Court. BARQUE ABANDONED - The screw steamer "Calpe," of Liverpool, Capt. DOWNES, fell in with an abandoned barque, the "Lizzie Aisbitt," of Shields, two hundred miles south-west of the Scilly Islands, on Thursday the 2nd instant. The chief-officer and six of the crew took possession, and succeeded in bringing the barque safely into Gwavas Lake on Monday morning last. Since then she has been brought into Penzance harbour. She is scarcely damaged in the hull, and the vessel and cargo are roughly estimated at from GBP6000 to GBP7000. The following deposition has been made by the chief officer to Lloyds' agent at Penzance, Mr. R. PEARCE:- "6th October, 1856. On Thursday last, the 2nd instant, at eight o'clock in the morning, we observed a boat bottom up, at a short distance from us. We were then about two hundred miles to the southward and westward of Scilly. The wind was S.W., strong breeze, with a heavy sea on. Soon afterwards we sighted a barque, under double-reefed topsails, yawing about from side to side, sometimes head to wind, and sometimes before it, with an ensign hoisted in the shrouds, union down. We bore away from her, and lowered away the life-boat with the second mate and four hands, who went on board the barque, and, on their return to the "Calpe," reported that the barque had been abandoned by her crew. On this I myself went on board the barque, and found that her cargo, which was wheat, had shifted a starboard. Bulwarks all carried away on the starboard and part on the port side. Her sails split and running gear mostly gone. On sounding the pumps I found that she had three feet water in her hold. I was of opinion that we could save her and so reported to my captain, who directed me to take six of the "Calpe's" hands with me, and return on board and take charge of the barque, and I did so; and as there was too heavy a sea running to allow of the "Calpe's" taking the barque in tow, I turned to with my men to make sail, and pumped her out; but, before we could get the life boat in, a heavy sea struck her, turned her bottom up, and broke her adrift, and we lost her. The only boats we found on board the barque were the long boat in her gripes over the main hatch and the jolly boat on the house aft. On going into the cabin I found from the bill of health from Gibraltar that she was called the "Lizzie Aisbitt," of Shields, of 360 tons, Captain AMBROSE LEAKE, with a full cargo of wheat for cork, for orders. Having got the barque under command, I shaped my course for the Irish Channel, but being unable to fetch Cork, and the weather being very strong and thick, I made the land at eleven o'clock yesterday forenoon; but the fog was so very thick that I could not sail with it, so I stood off and on until daylight this morning when a pilot came on board in Mount's Bay, and being too late for tide into the harbour, she was brought to an anchor at half-past one o'clock this afternoon about a mile to the southward of the pier. TRURO POLICE - On Saturday last, before Mr. PADDON and Mr. NANKIVELL, magistrates, ELIZA SARAH was charged with stealing a GBP5 note, one or two sovereigns, three shillings, some cigars, and a piece of black velvet, the property of Mr. RICHARD HENRY STEVENS, porter dealer, of Truro. The accused had been a servant in the employ of Mr. Stevens about three weeks. Mr. Stevens lives in Ferris Town, and had about GBP70 in a box in his bedroom. On opening the box on Friday evening last, he missed a GBP5 note, several sovereigns, and some silver. When he unlocked the box he had suspicion that some person had previously opened it. The servant was questioned, and Mrs. Stevens asked her if she had any objection to let them see what she had in her pocket. She said she had not, and she took out a key and a small parcel, which she placed under her arm. The key would not fit the box, but the parcel contained fourteen cigars and she had also a piece of black velvet belonging to Mrs. Stevens. She confessed that she had taken the cigars from different boxes; but denied that she had taken any money. She said she would pay for the cigars, and begged they would not send her to prison. Mr. R. Stevens, however, called in police-constable PRATER and gave her into custody; and the case was heard by the magistrates on Saturday, and she was remanded till Monday. No money was found by that time; and as she wished to be dealt with summarily and not sent to the sessions for trial, she as sentenced to one month's hard labour for stealing the cigars and velvet. On Monday, WILLIAM HENRY TUCKER, blacksmith, of Calenick-street, was charged with assaulting MARY CARNARTON, a widow, and her son THOMAS CARNARTON. The complainant did not wish to press the charge, and the case was dismissed on Tucker paying expenses. On Tuesday, SAMUEL GREENWOOD, labourer, of Truro, was committed for one month to hard labour, for indecent exposure near Comprigney. On Wednesday, WILLIAM JERVIS, of St. Austell, a miner; about eighteen years of age, was charged with stealing a striped Jersey frock from the shop of SAMUEL TRENERRY, tailor, &c., Kenwyn-street. Jervis went into the shop on Monday evening to beg; Trenerry's daughter declined to give him anything. He left the shop and she went into the room behind the shop. He returned, and the jersey frock was afterwards missed. Police-constable WOOLCOCK apprehended the prisoner, who after some time told where he had placed the frock, in Mr. WYATT's cart-house in Back-lane, and there it was found by another man. The prisoner was remanded till Thursday, when in addition to the above charge, Corporal BARON, of the Royal Cornwall Rangers, preferred a charge against the prisoner for having received the bounty on entering that regiment, when he had previously enlisted in the South Devon militia, in the name of WILLIAM NANKIVELL. The prisoner was sentenced, for stealing from the shop, to one week's hard labour; and for feloniously receiving the regimental bounty, to three months' hard labour. "CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC." - Under this heading we inserted a letter last week from the Rev. JOHN GOSTICK, of Truro, in reference to a person named SCOLLARD, who had called upon him, and offered to sell him a book. We have since received a letter signed "JOHN B. SCOLLARD," complaining of Mr. Gostick's letter, and stating that "the accusations contained in that letter are utterly groundless, which I am prepared to prove in any way which may be thought necessary." To this we may add that on Thursday the 2nd instant, John B. Scollard was charged before the Mayor of Truro and Mr. PADDON, magistrate, with obtaining four shillings by false pretences from Mr. J. B. JOB, draper, Truro. The four shillings was for the book referred to, which Mr. Job purchased, in the belief that Mr. Gostick had taken a copy. The case however was dismissed, and Scollard returned to the complainant the four shillings. ACCIDENTS - On Tuesday evening last, the Vivid omnibus having arrived at Truro from Launceston, was driven to the railway station with some passengers. On its return when going down Lemon-street, a serious accident occurred. A boy was taking to the field two horses belonging to Mr. CLIFT, carrier, and was riding one of the horses without bridle or halter. The omnibus, in coming down the street, ran against the horse the lad was riding; the pole struck the animal's chest and killed it on the spot. The boy of course fell in the ground, but he received no injury beyond a cut in the mouth. It is stated that the omnibus was the wrong side of the street when the accident occurred. A Port-holland-mill[?], Veryan, in the past week, a servant of Mr. JAMES NICHOLLS had a narrow escape. He was employed in turning the water wheel of the mill, when he accidentally slipped his foot by some mishap and falling between the wheel and the house, was hung by the neck. His master kept him up by the legs till his wife went and called some neighbours, who came and extricated him after he had been hung by the neck for some minutes. He was taken to the dwelling-house, and was attended by Mr. PRYNNE, surgeon, and hopes are entertained of his recovery. On Wednesday evening, as Mr. T. H. EDWARDS, mayor Helston, was proceeding in his gig through Penryn, on his way from Falmouth, when, near Mrs. POWELL's hotel, a waggon drawn by two horses at a furious rate came in contact with the gig. Mr. Edwards and another gentleman who accompanied him were thrown out with great force, but excepting some severe bruises to Mr. Edwards no personal injury was sustained; the gig, however, was very much broken. The waggon belonged to Mr. ALLEN of the Falmouth brewery; how much damage was not done is remarkable, it being in the evening of the fair, and a great number of people in the street. MINE ACCIDENT - On Monday last, a man called EDWARD WENMOUTH[?], employed at Holmbush mine, had occasion to blast five pounds of powder, in order to communicate with a lower level and for ventilation; but instead of waiting a proper time after the explosion of the charge, he went forward to see the result, and was suffocated. A coroner's inquest was held by Mr. JAGOE, coroner, on Saturday, and a verdict of "accidental death" returned. CORONER'S INQUESTS - The following inquests have been held before Mr. JOHN CARLYON, county coroner:- On Friday last at St. Agnes, on the body of ISAAC COCK[?], miner, aged 66 years, who died in a most sudden and unexpected manner the evening before. From a statement made by the widow of the deceased, it appeared that when she went to bed on Thursday evening soon after eight o'clock she left the deceased below, shaving himself as he was in the habit of doing. Shortly afterwards he came into bed to her apparently as well as ever he had been in his life, but on speaking to him about three minutes afterwards and not being able to get any answer to the repeated questions, she struck a light and found he was a corpse. Mr. WHITWORTH satisfied the jury that he died from the visitation of God by natural causes; and the jury returned a verdict to that effect. On Saturday, at Mithian, in the same parish, on the body of JAMES TREBILCOCK, aged 20 years. It appeared that on the morning of that day he had gone to Wheal Kitty mine with his master's wagon drawn by four horses, two abreast, for some tin to take to Truro. On his way to Truro with the loaded wagon he came to a heavy part of the road, and one of the eyes by which the shaft was fastened to the wagon, broke, and tore away the other. The consequence was the shaft fell, and the deceased who was riding on it, also fell before the front wheel, and before his master, Mr. RICHARD CHYNOWETH, who was walking by the side of the front horses, had power to stop them, the wheel had almost gone over him. The master was obliged to get assistance before he could clear him, and when liberated it was found he was quite dead. Verdict, "accidental death." BANKRUPTS - WILLIAM SEMMONS [?], tailor, Redruth, Cornwall, to surrender October 18, at eleven, and November 18, at two, at the Court of Bankruptcy. LEE, official assignee, Aldermanbury; MASON and STURT, Gresham-street, city. RICHARD NATTLE CLEMENS, tailor, Liskeard, to surrender October 16 and November 13, at one, at the Exeter District Court. HIRTZEL, official assignee, Exeter; Stogdon, Exeter. TESTIMONIAL TO THE MAYOR OF TRURO - On Thursday the 2nd instant, a public meeting was held in the Town Hall, Truro, for the purpose of presenting to the Mayor of that borough, Mr. STOKES, a public testimonial, which consisted of a very handsome silver candelabrum, having on its base the following inscription:- "Presented to HENRY SEWELL STOKES, Esq., Mayor of Truro, by 1,300 inhabitants of that town, as a mark of their cordial appreciation of the public spirit evinced by him at the celebration of the peace with Russia, May 29th, 1856, and on many other occasions." The candelabrum has three branches, and is elegantly ornamented with vine pattern, on a richly embossed base. It was supplied, at cost price, by Mr. UGLOW, jeweller, &c., King-street, Truro; its height is twenty inches, weight 112 ounces, and value about GBP50. An ornamental stand, worked with beads and silver cord by Miss THOMAS, (daughter of Capt. Thomas, now in Chili,) was presented with the testimonial. At the meeting of the Town Hall was crowded, and the Mayor on entering was loudly cheered. He was accompanied by members of the Town Council, and of the committee which had been formed for getting up the testimonial. The chair was taken by Mr. WILLYAMS, who said - My good friends, and fellow townsmen and townswomen, I have the pleasure of addressing you on a very agreeable occasion, but it is necessary that I should make any further explanation at present, than to say that we are unanimously met this evening to pay our respects to our worthy townsman and Mayor, Henry Sewell Stokes. In the course of the meeting we shall have the pleasure of presenting him a testimonial of our respect; and I shall call on some of my friends here, on the right or the left, to explain how this has originated; and, further than that, I shall ask some of you in the body of the hall to give your opinion on this subject; because we are not going to tie ourselves down, on this occasion, to formal rules or systems, but we are going to speak our minds freely; and I believe we shall find that we have universally the same opinion of the object which has brought us together. I shall now be much obliged to Mr. GEORGE CLYMA, the chairman of the committee in connection with this testimonial, if he will be kind enough to say a few words in explanation of the object of our meeting. Mr. G. Clyma, after stating that he had been unexpectedly called upon, said they had met in that hall on various former occasions, but never on a matter which gave him more pleasures than the present. They were not now met to advocate the advantages of education, or the value of total abstinence; to support a church extension fund, or that prince of societies, the Bible Society. They were not met to petition parliament to reduce taxation, or to discuss any political question, or to urge the government to prosecute with more vigour the war in the east, or to make arrangements for commemorating the return of peace, as they had done on a former occasion; but they were met that night to perform a duty which man owes to his fellowman. (Loud cheers) The origin of the testimonial to the Mayor was simply this. A few days after the day of rejoicing in commemoration of the peace, a memorial to the Mayor was got up and signed by most of the respectable inhabitants of Truro. That memorial was presented to the Mayor; but, at the same time, one or two individuals thought something more than that should be presented, something which might be handed down to posterity. (He (Mr. Clyma) was then in the middle of the hall, and said he thought a sheet of paper was a poor thing for the Mayor to hand down to posterity, for it would not last very long, after being a few times opened and folded. He therefore proposed that they should enter into subscriptions, from a penny to a shilling, to present the Mayor with some further testimonial; and he was happy to say they had now been enable to purchase something of a lasting character for a testimonial. (Cheers) He might also state that every expense attendant thereon had been met, and that they had two or three shillings left. He would only further remark that he hoped the time would never again arrive when his worship would have occasion to employ his poetical genius upon the incidents of another war, but that the talents which Providence had bestowed upon him to such an extent, might be employed in the support of those institutions which are calculated to improve society, and to create love and good works. (Cheers) Mr. E. PARKYN said he had been called upon as having been the first who suggested the presentation of a memorial to the Mayor, and as being one of those who had taken part in getting up the subscriptions towards the present testimonial. He did not know, however, that he could add anything to the very clear explanation which Mr. Clyma had given on the subject. He was sure they all felt great pleasure in assembling that evening to do honour to their worthy Mayor; and that at the same time they had much pleasure in seeing Mr. WILLYAMS presiding over the meeting. He believed there was a feeling amongst a few persons, - it was by no means a general one - that this tangible and public manner of showing their approval of the conduct of the Mayor was somewhat of an innovation, and that future Mayors might expect the same. It was, however, not every day that such manly, judicious, and straightforward conduct was evinced by a Mayor, as they had seen exhibited by Mr. Stokes on the occasion of the peace demonstration in Truro. When such a spirit was manifested, he thought it was incumbent on them all to come forward and pay a tribute of honour to the merits of such a Mayor. (cheers.) The Chairman then asked if any one would volunteer to address the meeting; and as no one immediately came forward, he proceeded to call up several in succession, the R. J. GOSTICK and others, whose remarks in approval for the peace and on other occasions, were received with loud applause by the crowded assembly. THE ROBBERY AT PENWARNE - To the Editor of the West Briton. - Sirs,- It is with great reluctance that I intrude on your time and space, but, I do so in consequence of my attention having been called to a letter in your impression of the 3rd instant, signed "HENRY ARMITAGE, superintendant of police, West Cornwall Railway," referring to the part that I took in detecting the parties that committed the robbery, and which appears to call for a word or two of explanation from me. Far be it from me to attempt to detract from the merits of any man, but after what Mr. Armitage has thought fit to say, I consider it is incumbent on me to lay the facts before the public, that they may judge for themselves; and I beg respectfully to say that neither Mr. Armitage, nor any of the officers engaged, knew of the men having been seen where the plate was found, nor suspected where it was concealed; but the proprietor of Penwarne knew on Monday morning the 27th of July, four days after the robbery was committed, that I had searched for the plate in the croft where it was found by the men that I had instructed to search for it, and to keep a sharp look out, and see if the men that they had seen returned, which they did, early on Wednesday morning the 27th of August. The day the plate was found, OPIE came and informed me that the men were there that morning searching the place, which let to their detection and committal, and it was not by any act of Armitage's, or the constables engaged with him, for at the time the prisoners were committed, nothing was said to connect CHADWICK with the housebreaking implements found at Penwarne. In conclusion I beg to add, that I am surprised that Mr. Armitage should have written such partial reports to mislead the public. I remain, Sir, Your obedient servant, ALFRED HIPWOOD JARRETT. Police Officer, Borough of Penryn, October 7th, 1856.

Hi Everyone - Thought this might be of interest to some; below is part of the announcement on Ancestry.com: ..................... Ancestry.com to be Acquired by Permira Funds for $32.00 Per Share in Cash Transaction Valued at $1.6 Billion; PROVO, Utah, Oct. 22, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ancestry.com (Nasdaq:ACOM), the global leader in online family history, and Permira, the European private equity firm with global reach, today announced that a company owned by the Permira funds and co-investors has entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire Ancestry.com for $32.00 per share in cash in a transaction valued at $1.6 billion. Tim Sullivan, Ancestry.com's President and Chief Executive Officer, and Howard Hochhauser, Ancestry.com's Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer, will maintain a majority of their equity stakes in the company as part of the transaction. Spectrum Equity will also remain an investor in the company. The transaction represents a premium of 41% over Ancestry.com's closing stock price on June 5, 2012, the last trading day prior to press reports that Ancestry.com had retained a financial advisor in connection with a possible sale of the company. The disinterested members of Ancestry.com's Board of Directors have unanimously approved the transaction and recommend that Ancestry.com stockholders approve the merger. Affiliates of Spectrum Equity, which together own approximately 30% of the company's outstanding shares, have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the merger. .................. The article continues to say that Ancestry "will continue executing on its growth strategy and initiatives led by content acquisition and technology investment, with the support of the Permira funds and the investor group." They're not changing management (at least for now) nor are they moving from Provo, Utah. It also says they have 2 million subscribers. Whether the valuation of Ancestry is 1.6 billion, or that's the actual purchase price, I'm not sure. > For a list of companies currently owned by Premira, see http://www.permira.com/investments#. > For the full text of the announcement, see http://ir.ancestry.com/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=714983. Evidently, the actual purchase won't happen until 2013, after Permira's stock holders &/or board approves the deal. Cheers, Julia

West Briton and Cornwall Advertiser. Friday 3rd October, 1856. ORDER OF THE ROYAL ARCH - A provincial chapter of arch-masons was held at the lodge-room of the Volubian chapter, at the Royal Hotel, Falmouth, on Tuesday last, and was represented by companions from different parts of the province. The M.E.G.S. Com. Z. ELLIS, presided, having Com Z. PEARCE, of Penzance, and Com J. GILBERT, of Falmouth, on his right and left. The chapter was richly furnished with all the appropriate emblems, and was illuminated and decorated for the purpose with great splendour, and all the members appeared in full costume. Several brethren duly qualified, from Truro, Penzance, and Redruth, were admitted to this order; after which the business of the province was concluded, and the companions were instructed in the mysteries of the sublime degree. The ceremonies were finished at half past three o'clock, soon after which the companions assembled at the feast, which was served in first-rate style by Mr. SELLEY; the wines and dessert were equally good. The usual toasts appertaining to the arch degree were given, and the proceedings of the day closed at an early hour in true harmony and delight. WRESTLING - On the conclusion of the cricket match at Clowance, on the 24th ult., a ring was formed in order that the "United Eleven" might see something of Cornish wrestling. Mr. A. WALKER, of the "Eleven," was elected chairman of the wrestling committee, who established themselves on the grand stand. Mr. Walker, though quite a novice, conducted the duties of his position most ably. J. LILLYWHITE, the celebrated cricketer, was among the first who entered the ring. He threw TIMMONS of Hayle, (who was matched against him by the committee) amidst the most boisterous applause, and soon afterwards he threw another individual entered as "Lizzyboy-Dick," and was then made a double standard. PENHALL, COOK, TREMELLEN, MOFFATT, and some others showed good play, but as it was late in the afternoon before the play commenced, there was not sufficient time to enable all the men to do justice to their skill. Penhall appeared to be the acknowledged master of the ring, but, notwithstanding this, the worthy chairman of the committee expressed his determination to have a "hitch" with him, but was unable to carry out his intention on account of the time occupied in the previous play. Every person was highly pleased with the sport, which contributed much to the pleasures of the last day of the match. The following prizes were awarded:- first prize, 10s., Penhall of Gwinear; second, 7s. 6d., Cook of Hayle; third, 5s., Moffatt of Gwinear. THE NEW MAYOR OF SALTASH - Mr. H. COOK has been elected Mayor of Saltash for the ensuing year. Mr. HAWKES was nominated by Capt. SANDERS and Mr. Cook seconded his nomination; the former, however, was elected. COAST GUARD - Mr. ARTHUR HOOD has been removed from the Langley to the Newquay station, vice Lieutenant HYNE, resigned the service. PORT OF FALMOUTH - The steam corvette "Cruiser," 17 guns, commander FELLOWES, having under her charge the gunboats "Stanneh," "Haughty," and "Forester," for the East Indies, put into Falmouth on Friday with very strong contrary winds and bad weather, to await a favourable opportunity of getting to the southward, as none of them are using their steam powers at present. The "Dee" steamer, Master Commander PULLEN, left Falmouth on Saturday for the eastward. ARRIVAL AT QUEBEC - We understand that the ship "Charles Challoner," FOX master, of and from Truro with passengers, has arrived at Quebec, all well. VESSEL SUNK - On Monday morning last, as the new smack "Bessie," of Padstow, F. PRIDEAU, master, was coming down channel in a fresh breeze, laden with coals., when near Hartland Point, she upset, and sunk. The crew, four in number, took to the boat, and sculled into Clovelly; they landed safely, but lost everything except the clothes they had on. COLLISION AT SEA - A collision took place off the Land's End on the 24th ult., between the "Shamrock," screw steamer of Dublin, and a much larger steamer, name at present unknown. The deposition of the captain, made to Lloyds' agent at Penzance, Mr. RICHARD PEARCE explains the accident:- "At half-past eleven, the Longships light bearing N.E. by E. distant about five miles, we saw the red light of a steamer right ahead of and fast approaching our vessel. We immediately put our helm hard a port, stopped our engines, and reversed them. At this moment the stranger steamer, having starboarded her helm, struck us stem on, on our port bow, and stoved it in, so that the fore compartment immediately filled with water, we had also our bowsprit and port anchor carried away, besides other considerable damage. Both steamers quickly separated, and in the confusion two of my crew were found missing. I conclude that they are on board the stranger, but had not sufficient communication with her to ascertain the fact. Whilst occupied in getting out the boats to save our lives, the fires went almost out. Finding that although the vessel was making much water, we could keep her up, we stuck to the pumps, and relit the fires, by which time it was nearly daylight, and steamed for Penzance harbour, where we arrived this day at noon." EXTRAORDINARY WHIRLWIND - On the 23rd ult., at three o'clock p.m., as Mr. THOMAS MITCHELL, master seaman at Landewednack Churchtown, near Lizard, was on the cliff with some of his men looking out for shoals of pilchards, a tremendous whirlwind from the N.W. passed over the land near Landewednack Church, blew up the bedroom floor of a dwelling-house, and blew down a woman and a furze rick, entered another house, capsized a washing tray at which a woman was washing, and carried her away through the window. It carried away a fifty gallons cask and as it fell over a high cliff near Mr. Mitchell into the sea, it made a tremendous noise. The water rose in a boiling foam in a continual whirl, and showed the colours of the rainbow. The body of water was supposed to be thirty fee high, and to cover about a quarter of an acre. It was seen to pass in a south easterly direction over the sea for six or seven miles as far as the eye could watch it, which space it passed over in about five minutes. The large sean boats of Messrs. FOX and CO. of Falmouth, were about fifty fathoms from the whirlwind, and had a narrow escape from destruction. TRURO POLICE - On Monday last, before the Mayor Captain KEMPE, Mr. NANKIVELL, and Mr. PADDON, a miner of Redruth, called JOHN LAWRY, was charged with being drunk and creating a disturbance, and assaulting police constable PRATER, whilst in the execution of his duty. At the same time GEORGE RIDDLE, miner, of Redruth, was charged with assaulting HENRY TUCKER, beer-house-keeper, Calenick-street. The two miners came in an excursion train to Truro on Saturday last, and between three and four in the afternoon, they and some others were in Tucker's beer shop, and a quarrel arising, one of them struck a young man. The landlord remonstrated with them, upon which Riddle gave him a blow in the mouth. The landlord then sent to the police-station, and police constable Prater came to the spot. Lawry was then in the street, challenging to fight any man in the place; the policeman endeavoured to persuade him to go home, upon which Lawry struck him and knocked off his hat. He then closed upon the policeman, struck him two or three times, and kicked him. He was, however, taken into custody, and with the assistance of others conveyed to the station-house. The assault being proved, he was fined GBP2 and expenses, or in default one month's hard labour. George Riddle, for assaulting the landlord, was fined 5s. and costs, or one week's imprisonment. On Wednesday last, before the Mayor, Mr. NANKIVELL, and Mr. PADDON, CHARLOTTE BENNY, alias TRAER, was charged with being drunk on Tuesday night, conducting herself indecently in the streets, and breaking a pane of glass in the shop-window of Mr. TIPPET, New Bridge-street. This was the third time of Benny's appearance before the magistrates, and she was now committed for twenty-one days to hard labour. CAMBORNE POLICE - HENRY RICHARD, beer-house-keeper, at Bolennowe, in the parish of Camborne, was summoned at the Petty Sessions, at Camborne, on Tuesday September 30th, on two separate charges. It appears that on the night of Saturday September 20th, about twelve o'clock, JANE, the wife of HENRY STONEMAN, went to Rickard's house, in search of her husband, and when she entered, she found the house nearly full of men drinking, her husband being with them. He left to go home with her, and as soon as they got out of the house he beat her severely, gave her a bloody nose, and ill-treated her very badly. On the following morning, WARD with some other constables, went to the house, and in a loft over the stable, he found some parties with porter and sugar. Mr. DOWNING appeared for defendant and endeavoured in vain to prove the loft was not on the premises. Rickard was fined GBP2. for each offence and the expenses, amounting in all to GBP5. 8s. 6d. STEALING ROOTS AND SUMMARY JUSTICE - On Sunday morning the 22nd ult., Mr. JOHN KNIGHT, jun., of Lostwithiel, discovered that a large quantity of mangel, beetroot, and carrots had been recently taken away from one of his father's fields, near Bridge-end; and a considerable number of their tops were lying in the field, some cut off and others twisted off, but fresh and newly or lately done. This, with other suspicious marks in and near the field caused Mr. Knight, sen., to go to Boconnoc the next morning, and state the occurrence to the Hon. G. M. FORTESCUE, who granted a search warrant which was handed to EVIT [?], the constable of St. Winnow, and he before four o'clock the same afternoon, succeeded in taking three men into custody, named PLANKEY, WHITE, and HAWKS; and he found a quantity of mangel and beetroots in each of their dwelling-houses. The tops and some broken roots were brought from the field, and compared and found to match exactly with the roots found in the houses. On the next morning the men were taken to Boconnoc, before Mr. Fortescue, when the witnesses were examined, and the three parties bound over to appear at Trecan Gate to take their trials on Tuesday last. There were several magistrates to hear the case, the prisoners being defended by Mr. SOBEY, of Fowey. They were however, found guilty, and the Bench fined them GBP1. 10s. each, viz:- 5s. for the roots, GBP1. 5s. fines, and GBP3. 8s. expenses. THE ROBBERY AT PENWARNE - To the Editor of the West Briton. Sir, - Having seen a paragraph in your paper last week, about the Penwarne robbery, signed "X Y," I beg leave, on behalf of myself and brother constables, to say that we were the first at Penwarne to take possession of the house-breaking implements, and got them identified by the carpenter belonging to East Trefusis mine, where CHADWICK was employed as a watchman, and ought to have been watching the night the robbery was committed. We had all the information about two men having been see, as soon as Mr. Jarrett had, and were taking our plans accordingly, and I beg to say more comfortable and intelligent men I never met with. All did their best, and we beg leave to take the credit of getting the prisoners committed for the burglary, and were too wide-awake to let "X Y" and Jarrett take the silver place from the constable who had possession of it. We did not fall out as to who had the plate. Mr. "X Y" must not be so ready to find fault. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, HENRY ARMITAGE, Superintendent of Police, West Cornwall Railway. EXETER DISTRICT COUNTY COURT (Before J. TYRRELL Esq., Judge.) Tuesday, September 30. Re: Coplestone Cross, of Trevethan in the county of Cornwall, and of Duryard, Exeter. This was the day appointed for the audit. Mr. DAW, the official assignee, produced an amount of moneys which he had received up to the present time, showing receipts of rents and balance of insolvents effects &c., to the amount of GBP1,208, out of which the expenses of the court and audit and other items had been deducted, leaving a balance of GBP1,056. 6s. 3 1/2 d. Among the property realised are effects at St. Eval, GBP271. 7s. 6d., and stock GBP650. Mr. Daw added that at the next court there would be a further statement of all the insolvent's property with the amount of dividend which the creditors would be likely to receive. Mr. WINSLOW JONES of Exeter, solicitor to the mortgagees, made an application in respect of a house at Trevethan, in St. Eval. It appeared that there was a tenement on the insolvent's estate, which just before the insolvency was partly taken down by insolvent, and that taken down, had only been partly rebuilt. A sum of GBP60 had been expended thereon by the insolvent, and a further sum of at least GBP300 more was considered necessary to complete the work; the insolvent had agreed to obtain from his friends GBP100 to aid in the completion of the work, and the mortgagees thought it would be advisable that they should expend the remaining GBP200 on it, to be rents of the estate, if the court would sanction such expenditure. The said estate was entailed upon the male issue of the insolvent, but as he was already 79 years of age and unmarried, the mortgagees thought they had ample security for the outlay, and it was also hoped that there would be a considerable surplus for the subsequent incumbrancers and also for the general creditors. His Honor considered the proposed work would tend to the advantage of the estate, and therefore granted the application. A MINING CASE - APPROPRIATION OF PARTNERSHIP PROPERTY - Re: THOMAS MARTIN PENALUNA, of Victoria Street, Plymouth, and previously of South Sydenham near Tavistock. This insolvent came up from prison and was supported by Mr. FRYER, solicitor of Exeter, and opposed by Mr. HENRY RICKARD, mining agent, of Hennock. Mr. Rickard stated that he took a set of mines with the insolvent on land, belonging to Mr. PAWLBY, at Manadon, near Plymouth, for which he agreed to pay GBP175. He went to London to dispose of the set, and met with a Mr. BUTTERS, to whom he sold them, and from whom he received two promissory notes for GBP100 each, in payment. He returned to Plymouth, and handed them over to Mr. Pawlby's agent who however preferred coin, Rickard then took back the notes and paid him money. The insolvent then proposed going to London, instead of getting the money he deposited one of the bills as security for a private bill of his own for GBP55 which had been dishonoured, Rickard having endorsed the bill, he was sued for the amount and had to pay it. The Judge - then you Complain that he has employed partnership property to his own account. Mr. Rickard - yes, your Honor. Mr. Fryer said that Rickard had not been damnified by the insolvent's doing as he had done, inasmuch as he could sue Butters who was liable for the bill. His Honor, - what became of the other bill. Mr. Rickard said the insolvent had also disposed of that, but he had got it again. His Honor told Mr. Fryer that unless he would show him that the insolvent was not appropriating partnership property to his own use, he should delivered an adverse judgment again him. Mr. Fryer hoped the court would be lenient on account of the insolvent's ill health. His Honor said the insolvent had been opposed by his own partner, and it was quite clear that he had appropriated his partner's property, to his own use, which was a most improper proceeding. He would not allow such conduct without punishment but taking into consideration insolvent's ill health, he would remand him to prison for three months from the time of his arrest. CORONERS' INQUESTS - The following inquests have been held by Mr. JOHN CARLYON, county coroner:- on Friday the 26th ultimo, at Veryan, on the body of a female bastard child, aged about three weeks, who died under suspicious circumstances; and from the evidence of Mr. PRYNNE, surgeon, there was no doubt that the want of sufficient nourishing food was the cause of death. The mother is a married woman named LUCY SMITH, whose husband, a sailor, has been absent about four years, and she did not know whether he was alive or dead. From her statement it appeared that when the child was born she had no milk for it, and gave it food, intending to bring it up by hand, in order that she might be able to go out and work for its maintenance, that the child ate heartily for some time till it rejected its food, and then she observed some pimples on its tongue, which she took to be the thrush and treated it accordingly. After that the food went through it, and the child died. All the neighbours deposed that the mother appeared to be very anxious about the child, and treated it affectionately. The jury returned a verdict, "died by the visitation of God." On Monday, at Cubert, on the body of SAMUEL HENRY OWEN PEDLAR, aged 3 years, who died from injuries he received from catching his clothes on fire, in the absence of his parents one of whom, the father, was at work, and his mother had gone out to take his dinner to him. Verdict "accidental death." On Tuesday, at Chacewater, on the body of TITUS GEACH, a quiet inoffensive old man of that place, aged 85 years, who had died on that day from erisypelas of the scalp resulting from a wound in the back of his head supposed to have been caused by a stone which a little boy called JOHN MOORE, aged scarcely ten years, was said to have thrown at him, on Tuesday the 16th ult. The witnesses swore that on that day they saw four boys annoying the deceased, and throwing turves and stones at him while he was at work, and that one stone, in particular, which was thrown by the boy Moore hit him in the back part of the head and knocked him forward. A constable of the parish called MINERS, on hearing that the boys were annoying the old man, went out to render him assistance, and he complained of the boys, but not of any particular injury that he had received from them; and this witness did not observe any wound on the head, or any blood about him which he believed he must have seen if there had been any. The deceased also resumed his work, after talking about ten minutes or a quarter of an hour; and it did not appear that he had made any complaint to his family until the following Friday. He was not confined to his house until Wednesday the 24th. Mr. MOYLE, surgeon, was sent for, and saw him on Friday the 26th. His features were then much swollen and blistered, and he was suffering from a severe attack of erisypelas of the scalp, extending over the whole of the face as far as the neck. His wife told Mr. Moyle that he had been grossly insulted on the Thursday week previously (the 18th), and had been hit with a stone; he rallied a little after that, but died on Tuesday morning last; and Mr. Moyle had no doubt that the erisypelas was produced by the injury inflected on his head. It appeared that the boys in the neighbourhood had been frequently in the habit of annoying the deceased in various ways; and there being conflicting evidence as to the day when the wound in the head was received, the jury were not satisfied that it was inflicted by the little boy Moore; and returned a verdict of "death from erisypelas, produced by a wound at the back of the head; but when, or how that wound was inflected there was no evidence to show." The jury wished some notice to be taken of the destructive and dangerous practice, by young men and boys, of throwing stones, which is greatly prevalent in Chacewater; and it is hoped that the fatal result not recorded will give warning to such mischievous persons. The following inquests have been held before Mr. HICHENS, county coroner:- On the 27th ult., in the parish of Breage, on the body of WILLIAM EDWARDS, aged 37 years, who with JAMES RULE, of the parish of Sithney, aged 39 years, was killed at Great Wheal Vor United Mines, in the former parish, on the preceding day. They had prepared a hole for blasting, and as the object was to burst through a winze, they charged the hole with 7lbs. of powder; having set fire to it they retired to await the explosion, which taking place shortly after, they delayed returning to the spot for about three quarters of an hour, when the deceased, Rule, let himself down by a rope, and Edwards standing by watching him, and seeing that he had fallen exclaimed "he's gone," and thereupon leaped into the kibble and was let down by his comrades to endeavour to extricate him; but he instantly shared the same fate, and thereupon one JOHN CLENSO followed the example of Edwards. He was let down sufficiently far to take hold of Edwards, and to draw him up about his length, when he also became insensible and was falling away, but was seized by a man of the name of TRELOAR, and drawn up, having previously lost his hold of Edwards. Air was then thrown down into the winze to dispel the smoke, which had the appearance of a dense fog, and Rule and Edwards were then taken up dead. Verdict "accidental death by suffocation." On the same day, in the parish of Sithney, on the body of the abovenamed JAMES RULE. - On the 29th ult., in the parish of Wendron, on the body of JOHN REED, aged 25 years. The deceased was a miner, and worked at South Wheal Frances mine, in the parish of Illogan, and was ascending from the seventy fathom level when the "skip" which was in the course of being let down, caught the deceased's head and shoulders, and jammed him against a piece of timber across the shaft, so injuring him as to cause immediate death. Verdict "accidental death." On the following day, in the parish of St. Just in Penwith, on the body of WILLIAM HICKS, aged 12 years. The deceased worked at Botallack mine in that parish, and on the preceding day was descending to his labour in the 180 fathoms level, when a board falling through the shaft struck him on the breast and killed him instantly. Verdict "accidental death."

I'm doing some transcribing of the Crowan Baptismal Registers for FREEREG. Some curious place names are emerging and I would be grateful if the OPC for Crowan parish would email direct so that I can get a little guidance. I'm afraid the vicar in 1813 had less than clear handwriting! Trevor Harvey

JOHN DAW. Clerk 16 September, 1856 ...... . WRECK OF THE SCREW STEAMER "ZEBRA" OFF THE LIZARD . An inquiry ordered by the Board of Trade, was held on Monday, in St. George's Hall, Liverpool, before Mr. J. S. MANSFIELD, and Captain SCHOMBERG, to ascertain the causes which led to the wreck of the "Zebra" (screw-steamer) bound from Havre to Liverpool. Mr. TINDAL appeared to conduct the inquiry on the part of the Board of Trade, Mr. ASPINWALL appeared for the Captain; and Mr. BATESON watched the case on behalf of the Owners. . WILLIAM ELLIOT BETTS, captain of the screw-steamer "Zebra", belonging to Messrs. MacIver and Co., and trading between Liverpool and Havre: On the 21st July last the "Zebra" left Havre, about one p.m., with 24 passengers and 39 officers and crew, for Liverpool. At about two o'clock the following morning saw the Start, which I had previously seen about twelve. At two o'clock it was N.E. by E., five or six leagues, the weather then being quite clear although it had previously been foggy at intervals. Witness left the deck at three, and was again on deck at four, soon after which he left the deck in charge of the chief officer, with orders that he (witness) should be called in case of seeing the Lizard, or if the weather should become foggy. . Witness was called at six as the Lizard land was seen on the starboard bow; at this time it was becoming foggy. Witness immediately went out, and saw land from the quarter deck, which he considered to be the Black Head, and the land to the westward to be the Lizard. Took the bearing of the Black Head by compass; it was N.N.E. ½ E., and estimated the distance at about twelve miles. After taking the bearings, marked the ship's position by those on the chart, and shaped a course N.W. ¾ N., clear of the Lizard near Land's End. Witness remained on deck, and finding that the fog was rising, altered the course a point more to the westward. After this, the fog becoming very dense, witness went to the engine room and ordered the engineer on watch to proceed at half speed, and to stand by the engines, to stop at a moment's warning, if necessary. . About half an hour after altering the course, on looking over the starboard side, witness saw something white having the appearance of land, and immediately called to the man at the wheel to put the helm hard a starboard, and heard the first officer give the same order at the same instant. Almost immediately after the vessel struck. . Witness then considered it best to lose no time in landing the passengers, and launched the boats, putting the women and children in first. So soon as witness saw them safely landed he returned to the vessel, and commenced removing the luggage, stores, and cargo. Shortly after the vessel fell over. . Witness considered the accident to have occurred in consequence of the ship not having held her course after making the Start. This might have arisen from the action of a current, or from the peculiar haze causing them wrongly to estimate the distance. . By MR. ASPINAL - Witness has been at sea for twenty years, ten of which he has been a master. Had been a master of a steamer for twelve months past in April last. Has been principally engaged in the North American service, by the same company which owned the Zebra. Since he had been in the Zebra he had been chiefly engaged in the transport service in the Black Sea. . The fog on the occasion referred to was a singular one, lifting and falling. At the time the vessel struck, witness considered they were fully ten miles off the Black Head, which, if correct, would have given ample room for passing the Lizard land. The witness underwent a long examination by Captain SCHOMBERG upon minute points relative to the deviation of the compass, the propriety of using the lead, and other technical details of seamanship. . ALLEN KENNEDY, chief mate of the Zebra was the next witness called. He was examined at considerable length by Mr. TINDAL, but the main features of his evidence were merely confirmative of that given by the proceeding[sic] witness. . By Captain SCHOMBERG - Witness kept watch from eight to twelve and during that time the vessels course was N.W. 1/2W., and was distant from the Start, as far as witness could judge, about eighteen or nineteen miles. Witness did not hear an order given to ease the engines, nor did he perceive that they were so at the time land was first seen, and the captain was called. When we first saw the Start light it was a clear night, and from the experience which witness had had, should say it was eighteen or nineteen miles off. . WENTWORTH COLE, the third officer of the "Zebra" was next called, and, in answer to Mr. TINDAL, he said he was perfectly sure the ship's course was N.W. 3/4N., after the captain was called up, and this was continued for two hours. This was afterwards changed considerably more to the northward of N.W. The ship answered her helm when the order was given "hard a starboard." The engines were not reversed, as the vessel bilged at once. The captain remained by the wheel. . GEORGE BENTHMAN, the helmsman at the time the vessel struck, was called, and examined by Mr. TINDAL. The course he got from the man he relieved was N.W. ¾ N., and this was shortly after altered by the captain's order to N.W. ¼ W. The ship struck heavily stern on; she struck twice. . WILLIAM PATERSON, the engineer in charge of the "Zebra" from four till eight of the morning of the accident, was next called He said - shortly before the accident he got orders to go at half speed, and set the engines to that by half shutting the throttle valves. The alarm bell was rung after this to stop, but the sound was not out of the bell when the vessel struck. Should think it was about five minutes after the order for half speed was given that the vessel struck. . JOHN G. WICKMAN, captain of the steamship "Niagara," was called, and said he had commanded a screw-steamer in the Liverpool and Havre trade for three years. He had observed that a current set in towards the Black Head in the flood tide, when the wind was southerly. In foggy or thick weather it would be impossible to see this, and a stranger might readily be deceived in regard to it. He had himself been sometimes led into a suspicion by it that his compasses had deviated. When he had seen the head lights he never considered it requisite to use the lead, and should not under the circumstances have directed the lead to be thrown. . MR. MANSFIELD said Captain Schomberg and himself should take time to consider the subject in all its bearings, and, after having done so, would deliver their judgment. . LOCAL INTELLIGENCE . TOWEDNACK FAIR - This fair on Tuesday last, as usual, was well supplied with both sheep and cattle, some of which were of first rate quality, and sold briskly. The pleasure fair also was well attended. The ordinary was served up in the usual good style of MRS. DUNSTAN, at which a greater number of farmers and butchers sat down and enjoyed themselves. . BUDE FAIR - The fair on Monday last was not so full as is usual, owing to the very heavy rain and wind during the morning and the whole of the day. Sales were rather dull and prices rather lower. There was a good sprinkling of holiday folks in spite of wind and weather. . CONCERTS - The morning and evening concerts at Penzance on the 19th instant, were numerously attended, and highly appreciated. In the morning the chaste rendering of Haydn's "Hymn to the Emperor," was especially applauded. Miss HANSFORD's fine delivery of the beautiful aria "With Verdure Clad," was much admired; and Miss LASCELLES, who has greatly improved, and is likely to become one of the first of English contralto singers, sang to perfection in Handel's charming duet, "O lovely peace." . The instrumental performers, Mr. BLAGROVE and Herr HAUSMANN, were equal to what we reported of them in the concert at Truro. Mr. Blagrove's pure tone and superior bowing on the violin, and Herr Hausmann's masterly performance on the violoncello were extremely admired. Mr. WYNN, baritone, has a good voice, and sang with considerable taste and feeling. These artistes were ably assisted by Mr. NUNN and Mr. HEMMINGS, of Penzance. At Falmouth on Friday evening, the concert was held at the Royal Hotel, and was fully attended. The performances gave equal satisfaction with those at Penzance; and Miss Lascelles was especially applauded for the charming manner in which she sung Donizetti's "Il Segreto." . PILCHARD FISHERY - At Mevagissey the seans are all put out of pay; the fish have drawn off, and there is at present no prospect of more catches. The fish have all been sold to Messrs. G.C. and R.W. FOX and Co, of Falmouth. Drift, at 42s.6d; scans, at 47s.yd. per load. It has been a successful season at Mevagissey, there being about 4,000 hogsheads of fish in the town. . EMBEZZELMENT - On Friday last, a person named LARK, of St. Austell, was charged before Mr. E. COODE, jun., with embezzling money from his employer, Mr. HITCHINS, merchant, of St. Austell, and was committed for trial, but bail was accepted for his appearance, himself in GBP 20 and two sureties in GBP 10 each. . TRURO POLICE - On Monday last, before the Mayor and Mr. PADDON, JOHN STEPHENS, brushmaker, was charged with assaulting police-constable GEORGE PAPPIN, whilst in the execution of his duty. . [On Saturday night last, Mr. RICHARD SPARKS, innkeeper, West Bridge, sent to the police-station for a constable, and in consequence, Pappin was despatched. According to the landlord's statement, Stephens was drunk, and while in the taproom insulted and challenged other persons to fight. The landlord attempted to eject him, when he delivered a severe blow to the landlord's face. On the arrival of the policeman, Stephens was in the street, surrounded by a number of people. The landlord told him he would not give him into custody if he would go away, but Stephens refused to do so, and when the constable tried to take him into custody, Stephens commenced striking and kicking the policeman, and his wife, CATHERINE STEPHENS, came up, and also struck and kicked Pappin. . However, the latter obtained assistance from the station, and from bystanders; both Stephens and his wife were secured, and with some trouble conveyed to the station. The man would not walk, and the police had to carry him. The assault being proved, Stephens was fined 5s. and costs; his wife, not having been in custody before, was discharged with a caution. . WM. PENNALIGGON, a carrier, was fined 5s. And costs for assaulting police-constable GEORGE VINCENT whilst in the execution of his duty, about twelve o'clock on Saturday night last. WILLIAM MOUNTSTEVEN was charged with assaulting police-constable JOHN GAY, whilst in the execution of his duty. . Gay was assisting Vincent to convey Pennaliggon to the station when he dropped his lamp, which was taken up by Mountstevens, who refused to return it to the policeman. Gay took hold of him, upon which Mounsteven struck him a severe blow in the mouth. Fined 20s. and costs, or fourteen days hard labour. . WILLIAM LULLY, sawyer, for endeavouring to rescue Mountsteven from the custody of the policemen, and was fined 5s. and expenses; SAMUEL GROSE, labourer, was fined 5s. and costs, or a week's imprisonment, for the same offence. . The fines and expenses in each case were paid. The magistrates cautioned the whole of these parties, and told them that if they were again brought up for assaulting the police, they would be severely dealt with. . FALMOUTH POLICE - At the Town Hall on Friday last, before Mr. CARNE, Mayor, Mr. ELLIS, and Mr. R.R. BROAD, magistrates, three young men, RICHARD HOSKIN, WILLIAM FLETCHER, and THOMAS THOMAS, were summoned by MISS E. DOWNING, shopkeeper, who stated that on Sunday morning last about three o'clock, she was awakened by a noise, and saw that some of her shutters were taken down and carried away. ALFRED ROBERTS, who was one of the party, being summoned as a witness, stated that Hosken took down the shutters and threw one into the market house. It was evidently a "lark" after leaving the Duke of Kent Inn, and for their disorderly conduct, the young men were each fined 1s. and 7s. expenses, or one month's imprisonment. The fines were paid. . PENZANCE POLICE - At the Guildhall, on Saturday last, before Mr. D.P. LeGRICE and Mr. JOSEPH CARNE, magistrates, JOHN EDWARDS, of Madron, farmer, was charged with having violently assaulted HONOR HOCKIN, of Boswarthen, in Madron, for which he was fined GBP 5, or in default two month's imprisonment. The fine was paid. . DISCOVERY OF STOLEN PROPERTY - On Thursday the 19th instant, some children of Falmouth were in the neighbourhood of the Falmouth Union House, picking blackberries, when under a hedge in a field one of them discovered a milk cup, and showed it to some men, who were working in the field. The men went to the spot, and on searching, found a large spirit stand, toast rack, coffee biggin, sugar basin, and a candlestick. They informed their master, Mr. E. BULLMORE, of it, who immediately went with them to MR. JULYAN, superintendent of police at Falmouth, and the latter pronounced the articles to be the property of MRS. RYAN, whose house was robbed in May last, by the two BASSETTS. Some of the articles were scratched at the bottom to ascertain whether or not they were silver; and the thieves, finding they were not, hid them as not being worth carrying off. . About the same hour, some men who were pulling down a wall at the Friends' Burial Ground, near Budock church, discovered two bundles containing a quantity of plated articles, viz: two salvers, a large bread tray, a pair of carver rests, a large egg stand, with six egg cups, a pair of candlesticks, and an extinguisher. They brought the articles to Mr. SAMUEL TRESIDDER, their master, who immediately reported it to Mr. JULYAN, who found them to be the property of LIEUT. HILL, R.N., which had been stolen from that gentleman's residence, it is supposed by the same parties, and about the same time as the robbery of Mrs. Ryan's property took place. . FELONY BY A TRAMP - A fellow who gave his name as DAVID ROBERTS, and has been a sailor, a week or ten days since was seen lurking about houses in the neighbourhood of Redruth in a very suspicious manner. He was observed on Sunday week prowling about MR. TROUNCE's house at Bridge, with his shoes off. Late on Sunday night he returned to Redruth again, and brought a gun with him, which there was reason to believe he had stolen. After great resistance, he was apprehended by constable RODDA, and the gun turning out to belong to DAVID DAVIS, of Portreath, cabinet-maker, and being fully identified, he was committed to take his trial at the sessions. . HIGHWAY ROBBERY - On the 11th instant, as ROBERT ROBERTS, an old retired farmer, who resides at Cams-house, in the parish of Southhill, about a mile and a half from Callington, was returning to his home, SARAH DAWE, daughter of ANN DAWE, who keeps a beer-house in that town, followed him down Hay road, and took out his purse, containing one sovereign and three shillings. It appears that this old man, who is the father and grandfather of eighty children, had been drinking at Dawe's house, and that the money in question had been seen by Dawe and others. She was committed for trial. . FIRE - About eleven o'clock on Friday night, the inhabitants of Tolcarne, in the neighbourhood of Penzance, were alarmed by a cry of fire, which proceeded from the higher mill of MR. JOHN COULSON; but fortunately, through timely assistance of the neighbours, and a good supply of water, the damage occasioned was not of great amount. SHEEP STEALING - A man named JAMES PIPER,living at Saltash, was on Monday week committed to Bodmin gaol by Mr. TUCKER, Trematon Castle, on the charge of sheep stealing. A great many sheep have been stolen in the parish of St. Stephens lately, and in consequence a watch was kept by the farmers in the neighbourhood, which ended in the capture of Piper, on Saturday night, with a sheep in a bag (still warm) which he had stolen from MR. THOMAS BATTEN's field. Piper is a navvy working on the Cornwall railway, and has a wife and five children living at Saltash. From a subsequent account, it appears that Piper knocked down the contractor as he was conveying him to Bodmin. He struck him with the handcuffs, rendering him senseless, then took the key of the handcuffs from the contractor's pocket, unfastened them, and made his escape. . CORONER'S INQUEST - the following inquest has been held before Mr. JOHN CARLYON, County coroner: On Monday last, at North Country, Redruth, on the daughter of GEORGIANA GRAY, a little girl of about two months, whom the mother stated she found dead in her arms when she awoke on Saturday morning. The mother was a married woman, but her husband had been abroad for some years, and there were some suspicious circumstances connected with the case, which rendered it necessary to have a post mortem examination, when it was proved that the child died from inflammation of the lungs, and the jury returned a verdict to that effect, being satisfied that there was no ground for the reports which had been in circulation. . LETTERS TO THE EDITOR . THE LATE ROBBERY AT PENWARNE To the Editor of the West Briton Sir, - Observing a paragraph in the West Briton of the 5th instant respecting this robbery, and the names of the different constables therein said to be engaged in detecting the parties, I beg to say that the statement was incorrect, as will appear from the following facts, especially that part of it which states "that Inspector ARMITAGE of the West Cornwall Railway was the first on the spot, and with the others made the necessary arrangements, and all deserve great credit for their exertions." . The men CHADWICK and JENKYN, of Redruth, had been seen carrying a gun and a bundle and searching about in a stony croft in the neighbourhood of Stithians. The persons who first observed them thus engaged were two men named SPARGO and OPIE, and who it seems knew one of them. The men communicated with MR. JARRATT, the policeman at Penryn, who instructed them to keep a sharp look out, and to inform him of what they might notice, and they acted up to these instructions. JARATT was in communication with Mr. PETERS on the subject after the robbery, and when the property was discovered. . Late on the Tuesday evening following, Chadwick and Jenkyn were again in the neighbourhood, and very early the next morning, Opie went and informed Jarratt that he had seen the men searching about the croft, when he desired him to go back and search about the spot where Chadwick and Jenkyn had been, which he did in company with others, and seeing a large stone with the earth around it looking fresh, they were induced to remove the stone and found that beneath it was a pit in which were two bags containing plate, nearly the whole of which had been stolen. On making this discovery, one of the men went to Jarratt, the policeman at Penryn, but before he arrived there, the plate was taken to Penwarne by a constable of Stithians, named HOLMAN, who had required them to give up possession of the plate to him. . Jarratt then followed them to Penwarne, where he sorted out all the articles found, and replaced them into the bag in the presence of MR. and MRS. PETERS, and afterwards obtained a warrant for the apprehension of Chadwick and Jenkyn from MR. GENN, of Falmouth, but it being so late, he could not get a magistrate to sign it that evening. . The following morning, Jarratt's attendance was required before the Penryn magistrates on important business, and he then gave the warrant to Constable THOMAS, of Ponsanooth, to execute, which he succeeded in doing, and the parties were brought before the county magistrates at Penryn and finally committed. . It will appear, from the foregoing facts, that Inspector ARMITAGE had not the least idea where the plate was concealed, because he had not been in the neighbourhood from the time the robbery was committed until the Saturday when the prisoners were remanded at Penryn. How then could he be first on the spot to give instructions, and what did he do to unravel the mystery? But the fact is, he apprehended two innocent men, and left them in the hands of two constables, MERRIFIELD and EDWARDS, to do the best they could with them, and they were kept handcuffed for twelve hours. . Had it not been that Mr. Jarratt had instructed OLIVE and SPARGO to keep a sharp lookout, the matter would in all probability up to this time have remained a mystery. . I hope you will find a corner for this, in justice to the parties concerned. X.Y. Penryn, 16th September, 1856 [Transcriber's note - "Opie" and "Olive" were both given as one of the 2 men alerting Jarratt]

Depends Sher If they were descendants of William Coad/Ann Kitto or brother Anthony Coad/Ann Jacka of Perranzabuloe, then they are in fact Brannel Coads, not Truro Coads. Much to our surprise we found through DNA that these Brannel Coads actually hail from Devon prior to 1670, and are unrelated to the Cornish families.

WEST BRITON AND CORNWALL ADVERTISER Friday, 19 September, 1856 . REDRUTH UNION . THE Guardians of this Union are desirous of contracting for the carriage of BREAD from the Union House to the several parishes of the Union, for the use of the out-door Poor; and also for the conveyance of all deceased Paupers from the Union house to their respective parishes. Tenders to be delivered at the Union Office, on or before Twelve o'clock at Noon, on Friday the 26th instant. . Further particulars may be known on application to the Master at the Union House or at the office of JOHN L. PETER, Clerk . Redruth Union Office, 5th September, 1856 . REDRUTH UNION . CONVEYANCE OF LUNATICS The Guardians of this Union are desirous of contracting for the CONVEYANCE of LUNATICS to, and DISCHARGED PATIENTS from, the Lunatic Asylum at Bodmin, including all expenses incident thereto. . The Contractor will be required in every case to act promptly on the orders of the Guardians, or their Officers, or, in their absence, of any Parish Officer; and . LOCAL INTELLIGENCE . WESLEYAN SUNDAY SCHOOL - On Sunday last, the anniversary sermons of this school at St. Austell, were preached in the chapel by the Rev. Mr. BROWN, of Mevagissey, when a collection was made towards the funds of the school. . The CUSTOMS - Mr John G. R. Anderson, principal coast officer at Arklow, Port of Dublin, has been appointed to the same office at Looe. NEW PATENT - In the weekly list of new patents we observe the name of Mr. R. W. VIVIAN, of Camborne, for an apparatus for economising the consumption of fuel. . ST. COLUMB CEMETERY - the first interment in this cemetery was that of a child named JOHN TIPPETT, and took place on Thursday the 11th instant. It is somewhat remarkable that since the 1st of August last, the time when the old church-yard of this parish was closed by order of the Secretary of State, and for more than a week previous to that time, this has been the only death in the parish, which has a population of three thousand; and we are informed that in the adjoining parish of Mawgan, out of a population of seven hundred and thirty-two, not a single death has occurred during the last five months. . PILCHARD FISHERY - At Mevagissey nothing has been done since last report by the seans. The drift boats had good catches during the latter part of last week, but few this week. It is supposed the fish had drawn off the shore. All parties are now very busy getting the fish ready for shipment. There is no prospect of fish at present at Porth, the drift boats are taking from one to three hundred per boat, the seans will stop to day. . SCHOONER LAUNCHED - On Wednesday last, there was launched from the building yard of Mr. John TREDWEN, jun., Padstow, a handsomely modelled schooner, of about 200 tons, named "Edith," JOHN CORY, master. . THE COLLISION IN THE CHANNEL - We are requested to insert the following, as being a more correct account of this unfortunate collision than has hitherto appeared: . The deposition of EDWARD HARVEY, of New Orleans, second mate of the ship "Ocean Home" of Brunswick, State of Maine, of the burthen of about 700 tons, three years old, coming from Rotterdam, laden with a general cargo, and bound to New York, under the command of Capt. ALFRED H. MERRYMAN, with seventy-seven passengers, men, women, and children, including Mr. MACKIE, of Cunard's line, a cabin passenger. The crew consisted of seventeen, including the captain, in all ninety-four persons on board. . "We sailed from Helvoetsluya on Monday, the 1st instant, and continued our voyage without any remarkable occurrences until the morning of the 5th instant, at three o'clock, when the Lizard bore N.N.W., distant fifteen miles, the wind a strong breeze, course W. by N., wind to the eastward of south. It was my watch below I was awoke by a loud crash, and, on hastening to the deck, found ourselves in collision with a ship much larger than ours. Our captain asked the captain of the other ship if he would heave too, and on our saying that we were sinking, the other promised to do so, and after reaching about a mile he did heave too. . As soon as the two ships had fallen clear of each other we began to get our boats out. The first boat that got clear was one of the quarter boats, with five or six persons on board; what became of them I do not know. I got into a larger boat, as did RODNEY E. SNOW, and JAMES MONAHAN, both seamen in my watch, and an emigrant who could not speak English, whose name I do not know. A heavy sea struck the ship and entangled the boat in the wreck, and before we could possibly get up alongside again, the ship sunk with all hands on board. . There was another boat, smaller than ours, on the house forward, but I do not think she could be got out in time. We had only one oar in our boat, and that was broken, so that we drifted to leeward; the boat having been stoved in getting her out, and so leaky that we had enough to do to prevent her sinking under us. The last that we saw of the other ship was that she was hove to close to the spot where we judged the wreck to be, about four or five miles to windward of us. . When I first got on deck I found our foremast gone, our port side cut down, and the ship settling down forward; I do not know what damage was done to the other ship, as the night was dark. I am of opinion that the other was an American ship. At about ten o'clock we saw a schooner to leeward of our boat, and in answer to our signal she reached towards us, and took us on board. She proved to be the "Martha," of and from Shoreham for Chester, Captain JONES. They treated us very kindly, ran in under the eastern land, and, with the assistance of some fishermen, we were landed at Mullion about half past twelve o'clock, where we were received and cared for by Mr. WILLIAM NICHOLAS, who brought me to Penzance, leaving the other three at Mullion." . The above is signed by the deponent, Edward Harvey, and was sworn before Mr. RICHARD PEARCE, of Penzance, receiver of droits. . A WANDERING MINSTREL - We have received several communications from this and the adjoining county, on the subject of a wandering minstrel having visited the west of England, and in nearly every case forgotten to settle his bills. It appears that in many instances he has employed printers and music-sellers to make the necessary arrangements for him, and has then left his engagements unfulfilled. . THE PROPOSED RACES AT CALLINGTON - The sporting gentlemen of the town and neighbourhood of Callington some time since obtained leave of MR. CORYTON, of Pentillie Castle, to hold races at Viverdon common, of which he is the high lord. A committee was appointed, the bill of racing printed, and circulars issued to different gentlemen. . The clergy of the neighbourhood, however, held a meeting, in consequence of which the Rev. GLANVILLE CORYTON waited on his brother to get him to withdraw his consent, and the following letter is the result, addressed to Mr. SPRY, Callington: . "Pentillie Castle August 22nd, 1856 Sir - Mr. SNELL applied to me a few days since to allow some races to take place on Viverdon, to which I gave my consent. Since which I have been waited upon by the clergymen of the parish, stating that on former occasions it had led to drunkenness and every other immorality. I have made enquiries and find such to be the case; consequently I feel myself bound to withdraw my permission, and shall feel obliged by your making it publicly known in Callington. I take the liberty of addressing you as your name was mentioned to me as having made the application. I am, your obedient servant, A. CORYTON." . SMUGGLING - On Monday last, at the Guildhall, Falmouth, before Mr. R. R. BROAD and MR. ELLIS, magistrates, WILLIAM PERRY, cook and steward of the "Mary Hill," was charged with smuggling four pounds of tobacco. He pleaded guilty, and the quantity being small he was fined GBP 1.17s, with 10s costs. The amount was paid. . CAUTION TO MILLERS - At the Guildhall, at Bodmin, on Friday the 12th instant, before Mr. GILBERT HAMLEY, mayor, and Messrs. J. WARD, and R. EDYVEAN, borough magistrates, WILLIAM LANDER, of the Berrycombe-mills, in that borough, was summoned to answer the charge of supplying CURNOW, a flour-seller of the town with flour adulterated with rice. The defendant pleaded not guilty. . Mrs. CURNOW was called, and proved that she had the flour of Lander, and admitted having sold it to RICHARD PASSMORE, the person who discovered something improper in the flour. Richard Passmore was called and proved that he purchased the flour at Mrs. Curnow's flour shop, that on going home he endeavoured to make some paste with it, but instead of thickening as usual it went very thin. In consequence of the general and very prevalent opinion which had got spread throughout the town that the millers were in the habit of supplying flour to the inhabitants adulterated, Passmore immediately took it to Mr. WILLIAMS, chemist, of Bodmin, who, on analysation, discovered that the flour was adulterated with a large quantity of rice; which opinion was proved by Mr. Williams, who attended before the magistrates. . Their worships, after consultation for a few minutes, considered the case clearly proved against Lander, and the Mayor, in addressing him, commented strongly on his conduct in deceiving his customers, as one of great magnitude falling heavily on the poorer classes. His worship remarked that the magistrates were of opinion that this practice had been carried on for some time, for they had ascertained that large quantities of rice had been sent and received by parties without any address being placed on it; but this being the first case brought before them against him, they had reduced the penalty to the mitigated sum of GBP 10 and costs. The Mayor remarked that should any case of this kind be brought before them again, they would inflict the utmost penalty of the law. . SHORT WEIGHT - On the same day, THOMAS THOMAS, grocer and flour-seller of Fore-street, Bodmin, was summoned to answer a complaint for having sold on Saturday, the 6th instant, a peck of flour 5lbs. short of the proper weight. The complainant, it appeared, was a customer of Thomas's, and had several times before found that his flour was from 3 lbs. to 5 lbs. short of weight, on his usual quantity of a peck. . On the night in question he went for his flour as usual, which was served him, and immediately went to the town scales, and on weighing it discovered it to be again 5 lbs. short of the weight of a peck of flour. He then returned with it to Mr Thomas's shop, and informed defendant of it, as also of his having discovered on former occasions his flour short of weight. On stating it to be his intention of bringing it to the notice of the public, Thomas made various offers of compromise, which were refused by the complainant, on the grounds of public justice, in putting a stop to such practices on the public by flour sellers. The case was clearly proved against Thomas, and he was fined GBP 3 and costs. . ST. AUSTELL POLICE - On Tuesday last, WILLIAM PHILLIPS, cooper, of St. Austell, was charged before Mr. E. COODE, jun., with beating his wife in a most shameful manner; but although the marks showed how he had treated her, she would not swear she stood in fear of him. He was therefore dismissed, with a caution that if brought up again, he would not be dealt with so leniently. . ST. COLUMBE POLICE - A fellow who gave his name as WILLIAM MAY was committed to the county gaol on Monday last, by Mr. H.P. RAWLINGS, for six weeks, as a rogue and vagabond, for violent conduct and indecent exposure in the streets on Sunday evening. The man was soon apprehended and secured by police constable COOMBS, when he found him to be a well-known begging-letter imposter. It is owing to the keen vigilance of this indefatigable officer, who is at all times "present and alert," that the inhabitants of St. Columb are so seldom annoyed by the visits of the vagrant tribes that infest the villages and towns in this neighbourhood. . FALMOUTH POLICE - On Monday last, before Mr. BROAD and Mr. ELLIS, magistrates, an adjourned case was heard, charging JANE TOMS, of the Duke of York Inn, with keeping a disorderly house. Mr. MOORMAN appeared for Mrs.Toms. Mr. T. BENNETTS, who was one of the complainants, stated that the house was a great nuisance and disturbance to the whole neighbourhood, in consequence of drunken and disorderly persons being therein at late hours, on the 8th and the morning of the 9th instant. There were also examined CADDY and ROBERTS, policemen, Messrs. JANE, PAINE, DREW, and BURNETT, who all corroborated the complainant, and although Mr. Moorman cross-examined the witnesses, and called two persons to make out his client a worthy and quietly disposed person keeping a creditable house, he failed to convince the magistrates, who therefore inflicted a fine of 20s., with costs 16s., which was paid. . INCENDIARY FIRE - On Thursday morning the 18th instant, about seven o'clock, a rick of hay, near Castle hill, Truro, was discovered to be on fire, and a boy named STUART, about eleven years of age, of Castle-street, Truro, was seen running away from the spot. He was apprehended by the police, and brought before the magistrates, when in consequence of the non-appearance of the owner of the hay, the case was remanded. The boy, however, acknowledged having set the hay on fire, for mere mischief sake, by means of a box of lucifers. The hay was the property of Mr. GREGSON, contractor, and was almost totally consumed. The value was about GBP 12. . CHEATING THE RAILWAY COMPANY - On Monday, before the Mayor of Penzance (Mr. W. BORLASE,) a miner of St. Agnes, named RODDA, was charged with riding in one of the West Cornwall Railway carriages without a ticket. On the arrival of that afternoon's train at Marazion, Rodda was found to have no ticket. He said he had only then entered the carriage, but it was found that he had got in at Scorrier. He was brought on to Penzance, surcharged in double the fare, and having no money was given into custody. In defence he now alleged that he was intoxicated at the time. Fined 7s.6d. and the costs; in default of payment to be imprisoned one week, but allowed a week to procure the money. CONCEALMENT OF BIRTH - On the 9th inst., a married woman named MARY DANIEL, whose husband has been in Australia for the last year and a half, was charged before Mr. E. COODE, jun., at St. Austell, with concealing the birth of a child, of which she had been delivered about a month since, and on whom an inquest had been held before Mr. HAMBLEY, county coroner, and a verdict of "found dead" returned. A report, however, having been circulated that the child had not been fairly dealt with, and evidence having been heard before Mr. Coode, she was committed to take her trial at the next assizes, for concealment of birth. Bail for the prisoner was accepted in the sum of GBP 50. COUNTY COURT - ST. AUSTELL - The monthly sitting was held on Thursday, the 11th instant, when there were fifty-seven cases entered, and there remained four cases adjourned from the previous court, but only twenty came on for hearing. In three cases, judgment was given by consent; the others were settled out of court. . BODMIN - the monthly sitting of this court was held at the Assize-hall, on Wednesday the 16th instant. The cases were either settled out of court, or did not hold any feature of public interest. . TRURO - at this court, held on Friday last, there were forty-three cases entered, and two adjourned from the previous court. Many of the cases were settled out of court, and none were of any public interest. . In the case of GEORGE CRICHTON v. JAMES BOWDEN, for recovery of GBP 4.3s.6d, and the same plaintiff v. JAMES TYRRELL, for recovery of 15s., it appeared that both defendants had been summoned only the day before the sitting of the court, plaintiff showing that defendants were both going abroad. The ordinary time of summons must be not less than ten days before the court is held, but a special provision of the act empowers this more summary process when defendants are known to be on the point of leaving the kingdom. In the above cases, an arrangement was come to on the part of Bowden; but in the case of Tyrrell, judgment was given for payment forthwith. An insolvent, ROBERT ADAMS, cabinet maker, Truro, received his final order. . FATAL BOAT ACCIDENT - A melancholy accident attended with fatal results, happened at St. Just in Penwith on the 9th inst. A boat called the "Dove," belonging to Priest's Cove, had been out all night, the crew (four in number) having been engaged in fishing. Whilst beating home with a stiff N.E. breeze the boat shipped a heavy sea, and the man who held the mainsail mistaking a warning given him by the steersman, or perhaps alarmed at the heavy waves, instead of letting go, grasped a firmer hold, and the boat went down bow foremost and has not been seen since. Two of the crew were picked up and put on board a sloop, but the other two - JOHN RICHARDS and GEORGE JENKYN - went down with the boat, and were never seen afterwards. The latter has left two children. . CORONER'S INQUESTS - The following inquests have been held before Mr. JOHN CARLYON, county coroner - On Tuesday at Gwennap, on the body of HENRY ROWE, aged 32 years, who died on Monday morning from injuries he received on the 6th instant, by falling downstairs as he was going to bed. Verdict, "accidental death." . On the same day, at Newlyn, on the body of JAMES JONES, aged 53 years, who was killed on Monday in East Wheal Rose mine, by falling down from the 17-fathom level, to the 40 fathom level, in MITCHELLS engine shaft. The deceased was one of the pitmen, and was working by himself at the time on a stage-plank, making a set of stay wedges so that the cause of his falling could not be accounted for, but he fell with such force on the sollar doors on the 20-fathoms and 30-fathoms levels that he carried away the first with him and broke the boards (composed of 2 1/2-inch plank) of the second, and then fell down on the sollar at the 40-fathoms level, where he was found quite dead by the parties who went to his assistance. Verdict, "accidental death." . The following inquests have been held before Mr. HICHENS, county coroner; On the 12th instant, in the parish of Gunwalloe on the body of JOHN BROWN, aged 77 years, who died suddenly. Verdict, "natural death." . On the following day, in the parish of Illogan, on the body of ANNA MERRETT, aged 34 years, who died after having a fit. Verdict, "natural death." . On Wednesday last, in the parish of St. Just in Penwith, on the body of RICHARD BADCOCK, aged 18 years. The deceased was a labourer at Wheal Owles mine, in that parish, and whilst in attendance upon a carpenter of the name of HARVEY, who was employed in erecting a stamp, by some means lost his balance and reeling fell into the pit in which the fly wheel worked, and was so crushed thereby as to cause his death shortly after. Verdict, "accidental death." . An inquest was held on Thursday at the Edgcumbe Arms, Cremill, before Mr. JAGOE, coroner, on the body of Mr. THOMPSON, who, whilst riding on the previous day near the toll gate at Cremill, fell from his horse, and soon after expired. From the evidence adduced, it appears that the deceased gentleman was subject to faintness. Verdict, "accidental death." . ROYAL POLYTECHNIC SOCIETY MEETING [partial report] [Judges in the school] department have been much disappointed to see - nothwithstanding their strong advice last year - that many of the best drawings exhibited bear evidence of a master's assistance. They are very sorry to be obliged to decline judging these works, from ignorance of what the pupil has actually done. From the good style of drawing taught them, and their faithful study of nature, the judges hope next year to be able to give many prizes to these competitors, who will then be able to produce works of which they, or their masters, can state that every stroke is their own. . The committee have been obliged, this year, to award several of their prizes to drawings which are merely copies, much as they wish to encourage pupils to draw from nature. Drawings on the coloured tablets have in no case received a prize; such false taste and want of truth in colouring should be in every way discouraged. . The four portraits that have gained the premiums deserve special commendation. The judges have been tied down to give only three prizes in each class of drawing, which has prevented their giving the many small premiums to encourage school children in their early attempts, which they would gladly have done. The judges in the school department would find their work much easier if they might be released from the rule to give only higher prizes to the same competitor than the year before. There are such a number of school children sending drawings, who deserve a little encouragement, but it is hard to pass them by. . The SECRETARY also read the list of prizes in Naval Architecture. (We shall publish the list of prizes in each department next week.) . Mr. HEARDER, of Plymouth, then gave a description of his electrical coil machine, with experiments. Mr. HUNT explained Bessemer's new process for the purification of iron; and the Rev. J. PUNNETT made a communication, showing that a near approach to the discovery of the new process was made at the Hayle Foundry two or three years ago. Mr. Hunt explained the new galvanographic process of Mr. Paul PRETSCH, of Vienna, illustrated with pictures obtained by that process. He also described the process of manufacturing the metal aluminium from clay, showing specimens of that metal. These, and other proceedings, we shall again refer to next wee. In the evening Mr. Hunt delivered a lecture "On the advance and advantages of scientific knowledge."
