PENRITH BOARD OF HEALTH. Present: – MESSRS. J. GRAHAM (chairman), J. PATTINSON, J. SIMPSON, W. LYNN, G. GOODBURN, J. R. BARRON, J. JAN*E*, J. WAGSTAFF, B. T. SWEETEN, C. FAIRER (clerk), and J. TODD (surveyor). THE GAS QUESTION. – After a long conversation on the resolutions passed at the public meeting respecting the gas question, MR. PATTINSON said the additional sum that would have to be paid during the next six or twelve months, supposing the Board agreed to the terms of the Gas Company, would really not be very considerable. He therefore begged to move that a letter be written to the Gas Company, asked them if they are prepared to treat for the purchase of their works by the Board, and on what terms. It seemed to him that if an arrangement could be come to with regard to the price, it would be an easy matter to procure an Act of Parliament to enable the Board to take possession of the works, because there would be no opposition. MR. SIMPSON seconded the motion, which, he said, seemed to be carrying out he spirit of the meeting. The resolution was ultimately carried, and the Clerk was requested to communicate with the Gas Company on the subject, and also to obtain further information from the Local Government Board with reference to the power of the Board in the matter of the purchase of the Gas Works. THE FEVER CASES. – The medical officer ( DR. ROBERTSON ) reported that the four cases of scarlet fever in the hospital were progressing most favourably. He also reported that he had started the house-to-house inspection, and he had no doubt, from what he had seen, that the officer appointed by the Board would do his work most satisfactorily. ============================================================== barb, ontario, canada.
LOCAL & DISTRICT NEWS. SUDDEN DEATH NEAR LANGHOLM. – On Sunday, JOHN DALGLIESH, aged 81 years, a farmer, residing at Bigholms, in the parish of Langholm, was found dead about a hundred yards from the farm steading. He had only left the house about half an hour previously. He had been in delicate health for a long time past. PROPERTY SALE IN PENRITH – On Tuesday last, MR. JOHN JACKSON offered for sale at the Dockray Hall Hotel, Penrith, about 48a. 2r. 7p. of old grass land, situate at Berrier, in the parish of Greystoke. The bidding was unusually spirited from £850 to £1250, on which there was on further advance. The reserve price was fixed at £1400, at which sum the property was withdrawn. ERRATA. – An error crept into our report of the awards at the Appleby and Kirkby Stephen Show held last week, as we stated that for Agricultural Foal, the 1st and 2nd prizes were awarded to CAPTAIN GANDY. The name ought to have been MR. HENRY BURNE, Black Leases, whose foal took the first in its class, and also received MR. WINTER’s special prize for the best foal by “Rob Roy”. - At Templesowerby the first prizes for long-wool tup lamb and long-wool gimmer lamb were awarded to MR. JABEZ CROSBY, who name was inadvertently substituted by two others. “POPULOUS PLACES” IN CUMBERLAND. – The adjourned meeting of the County Licensing Committee was held in the Grand Jury Room at the Courts, Carlisle, on Saturday last. They “ascertained that the following places within the said county are ‘towns’ within the meaning of the said Act, namely, Whitehaven, Cleator Moor, Cockermouth, Workington, Keswick, Maryport, and Penrith “. They also determined that each of the following areas, having a population of not less than one thousand, shall be deemed “populous places” within the meaning of the said Act of last session: – Brampton, comprising the whole of the area within a radius of half a mile from the Moot Hall in Brampton; Wigton, comprising the whole of the area within the Township of Wigton; and Egremont, comprising the whole of the area within the Parish of Egremont, which lies within a radius of half a mile from the Market Cross of Egremont. THE DUKE OF CONNAUGHT’S VISIT TO CUMBERLAND. – During his visit to Cumberland, His Royal Highness, the DUKE OF CONNAUGHT, drove to Wastdale Hall, the seat of MR. JOHN MUSGRAVE, who, with his good lady, entertained their distinguished guests in true Cumberland style. Boats, with experienced boatmen, provided by MR. MUSGRAVE, being in readiness, His Royal Highness, together with LORD MUNCASTER and the party from Muncaster Castle, MR. MUSGRAVE and sons and MISS MUSGRAVE, enjoyed a pleasant sail on Wastwater. The party afterwards returned to the Hall and partook of luncheon, when His Royal Highness was graciously pleased to express to MR. and MRS. MUSGRAVE his appreciation of their kindness, and assured them how much he had enjoyed his visit to their beautiful home. MR. MUSGRAVE, in reply, assured the Prince that if His Royal Highness and party had enjoyed their visit to Wastdale Hall, he (MR. MUSGRAVE) was only too proud to have been their entertainer, and should they ever again come that way, he should be most happy to see them. After staying about three hours, the Prince and party, in the most cordial and hearty manner, took leave of MR. and MRS. MUSGRAVE and family, and returned to Muncaster Castle. THE YEOMANRY CAVALRY. – The Westmorland and Cumberland Regiment of Yeomanry Cavalry assembled at Penrith on Tuesday for eight days’ permanent duty. The following officers are attached to the different troops: - Dalemain: CAPTAIN SIR H. R. VANCE, LIEUT E. CURWEN, CORNET J. E. HASELL. Lowther: CAPTAIN W. H. PARKIN, jun., LIEUT. SENHOUSE, CORNET VISCOUNT LOWTHER. Edenhall: CAPT. G. R. REES, LIEUT. FETHERSONHAUGH, CORNET J. LINDOW. Appleby: CAPT. J. J. SPEDDING, LIEUT. J. P, CORNET (CAPTAIN) MARKHAM. Carlisle: CAPT. T. H.

BURN, CAPTAIN and ADJUTANT B. EDMONDS, and SURGEON WICKHAM. Owing to the inconvenient period of the year, many of the troops lack their usual complement of men, the drawback being particularly conspicuous in the Carlisle, the Kendal, and the Appleby troops. On Tuesday evening the usual foot parade took place in the Cavalry Field at the Townend, in presence of a number of spectators. The band of the regiment, under the excellent leadership of bandmaster HARVEY, is this year in a form that reflects the highest credit upon their conductor. On Wednesday morning the regiment proceeded to the Race Course for mounted drill. The route through the town was crowded with spectators. Generally the men are well mounted, and present a soldierly appearance. The regiment will be reviewed on Monday next upon Penrith Race Course. =============================================================== barb, ontario, canada.

PUBLISHER’S STATEMENT. Printed and Published by THOMAS HODGSON, at 53, King-st., Penrith. Saturday, Sept. 19, 1874. ==================================================================== this completes my transcription of the above issue of the PENRITH HERALD. barb, ontario, canada.
NEWS ITEMS. ADVICE TO PUBLICANS. – It may perhaps be well for the information of publicans, in prospect of Brough Hill fair, and other public gatherings, to call their attention to the change respecting the sale of liquor off the premises under the new Act of last Session, which requires that publicans shall now obtain an “occasional” or special licence for these times. Forms of application may be had from the local Excise Officer, and must be signed by a magistrate ; the Licenses will be granted by MR. SWINDELLS, Supervisor of Inland Revenue, Penrith. ______________________________ BROUGH SCHOOL BOARD. – The following persons have been nominated for election as members of the School Board, for the Brough united district: - MATTHEW ATKINSON, Lowgill, farmer; GEORGE HENRY BAILEY, Brough, postmaster; GEORGE BAINBRIDGE, Brough Sowerby, farmer; JOHN CHARTER, Brough, Baptist Minister; J. A. DICKINSON, Brough, farmer; WM. KILVINGTON, Brough, farmer; THOMAS LAMB, Hillbeck, farmer; ROBERT LONGSTAFF, Brough, yeoman; REV. W. LYDE, vicar of Brough; JOHN MORLAND, Brough Sowerby, gentleman; and GEORGE WHITEHEAD, Brough, Primitive Methodist. - five of the number to be elected. The election takes place next Thursday. we understand that several of them have withdrawn. -------------------------------- THE JUMPING ABOMINATION. – Agricultural public opinion tends at present towards the abolition of jumping altogether. The agricultural press is unanimous in condemning it; exhibitors of machinery complain loudly of the injury which their interests sustain from the practice of jumping at agricultural shows, and recently these have abstained from exhibiting their implements in Ireland, though they have been well represented at the English Society’s show at Bedford. Practical farmers do not care for it, for they know well that such exhibitions furnish no true test of the jumping powers of a horse at all, as many an animal will acquit himself creditably in the hunting field which will positively refuse to jump in a crowded yard surrounded by a crowd of excited spectators. It is to be hoped that the recent lesson of the Wexford show will not be lost on Society. – ‘ Irish Correspondent of Agricultural Gazette ‘ ================================================================= barb, ontario, canada.
Saturday 15 May 1819 (p. 3, col. 3-4) Thomas HODGSON, alias Thomas GRISDALE, was committed to Carlisle gaol, on Saturday, on two separate charges. He was first apprehended for falsely obtaining and secreting a letter addressed to Col. YOUNGSON, supposed to have been written by J. D. B. DYKES, Esq. of Dovenby Hall. It appears that HODGSON went to Mr. DYKES and offered his services as a Coachman, and on a character being demanded, he referred to Col. YOUNGSON, stating that he had lived in that gentleman's service,-which was a falsehood. Mr. DYKES wrote to the Colonel, and HODGSON, naturally dreading a discovery, went to the New Crown Inn, at Penrith, and asked if there were any letters for Col. YOUNGSON:-there were two, and they were given to HODGSON by Mr. SHEARMAN, under the impression that he was authorized to receive them. These letters were not taken to their destination; and the next day the offender was apprehended, when one was found upon him, but that supposed to have been written by Mr. DYKES could not be met with.-HODGSON afterwards voluntarily confessed that he had stolen two pair of spurs and a bridle from the shop of Mr. John DODD, saddler, of Penrith. A considerable quantity of human bones, intermixed with the bones of brute animals, was found, this week, in cutting down the Castle-bank, in order to lower the path.-Some think they are the remains of men who fell in the border-wars, and others consider them as the relics of persons who died of the plague in Carlisle, at the same time that the metropolis was nearly depopulated by that dreadful scourge. On Sunday last, the Nimble, KENNEDY, arrived at Whitehaven, from Liverpool, having on board a fine new organ for St. James' Church, in that town; also an organ for Gosforth Church, and another for Wastdale Church. Last Saturday, as John ROUTLEDGE, of Parton, was working in one of the coal-pits at Lowca, near Whitehaven, part of the roof fell and crushed him so severely that his hip was put out, and his recovery is doubtful. A valuable bed-quilt was stolen, on Saturday, from off a hedge, near the Black-cock. A woman of Whitehaven is suspected. Since the establishment of the House of Recovery at Whitehaven, the typhus fever has greatly abated in that town. A most commendable promptitude is exercised in conveying the indigent sick to the institution, and thus the propagation of disease is checked. The following mode of solemnising a marriage will cause some surprise in that part of our readers who are not acquainted with the old customs of Cumberland: it is now nearly extinct:- "A Public Marriage.-Henry HEWER, son of John HEWER, of Castlesowerby, and Elizabeth STALKER, daughter of William STALKER, of Hesket, in the parish of Caldbeck, purpose being joined together in holy matrimony, on Wednesday the 5th Day of May, 1819, at the parish church of Caldbeck; on which occasion, the favour of the company of all the friends, neighbours, and acquaintances of the respective parties who can make it convenient to attend, will be highly esteemed and considered an obligation for which they will be truly thankful.-N. B. An entertainment will be given at the house of Joseph STALKER, innkeeper. On the same day, a napkin will be given to be run for by horses, a belt to be wrestled for by young men, and a pair of gloves to be leapt for.-A ball in the afternoon, with a FANCY to be danced for by the Ladies." Mr. I. BOWNESS, formerly of Raisbeck, in Westmorland, has been appointed second classical master in the now-flourishing school of St. Bees. The sloop Jenny & Peggy, of Peel, John QUIRK, master, was seized on the 9th inst. at Maryport, a quantity of rum having been found on board. Rape.-John WHITE, a ruffian, six feet high and upwards, who has lately been levying contributions upon the different Vagrant Offices in this part of the country, committed a rape last week, near Brough, upon the body of Mary COOK, a poor but honest girl. The villain has been committed to Appleby gaol to answer for the horrid offence at the next assizes. John KILLAN, who was convicted at Dumfries Circuit Court, of highway robbery, and condemned to death, has been respited during the Prince Regent's pleasure. The Dumfries-shire Gentlemen Yeomanry Cavalry, commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Bryce M'MURDO, will assemble at Dumfries, for training and exercise, on or about the 9th of June.

Of their particular proficiency those who have them in their employ can testify. The liberality of the EARL OF CARLISLE in building a large and commodious School Room solely at his own expence, together with the munificence of Lord Viscount Morpeth, William Ponsonby JOHNSON, Esq. and the Gentlemen whose names are here subjoined, under the fostering hand of Providence, may be construed as the means whereby so laudable a design has been so far favourably conducted.

Saturday 08 May 1819 (p. 3, col. 1 and 4-5) Dr. HUGH JAMES.The Monument to the memory of this lamented and estimable physician (a token of public regard), is now erected in Carlisle Cathedral, in a situation which shews it to advantage. It consists of a tablet of white marble, of the sarcophagus form, resting upon two corbals, on each of which the serpent, emblematical of immortality, is sculptured: on a space between, are the family arms, surrounded by rich foliage and flowers, in high relief; and on each side of the tablet, figures of Æsculapius and Hygeia, in alto-relievo, are beautifully sculptured, in reclining positions. The whole is surmounted by a pediment of black marble, before which stands an urn, enfolded with drapery, on a pedestal hung wish laurel. It is executed by REGNARD of London, and is highly creditable to the talents of the artist, who has displayed a happy taste and great ingenuity in the design and completion of this well-earned memorial of departed worth. THE INSCRIPTION. This grateful Memorial is erected by Public Subscription to HUGH JAMES, Esq. M. D. who practised Physic with eminent skill for many years in this City. Providence largely recompensed the loss of sight in early life with talents which raised him to distinguished reputation in his profession and more abundantly blest him with a disposition ever prompt to succour poverty and pain. The study of his art, which shewed him the weakness and uncertainty of life, taught him to meditate deeply on the works of God and animated his faith in a merciful Redeemer. He died the 20th of September, 1817, in the 45th year of his age. His remains were interred in the Parish Church of Arthuret in this County. We are happy to learn that Messrs. SLATER & Co., of Manchester, have taken the New Mill in this City, which has been so long shut up, and that they intend to commence spinning immediately. This will be of considerable benefit to Carlisle and its neighbourhood, as it will afford employment to many much in want of it, and will probably considerably lessen the poor-rate. A Sheriff's Court was held at the Town-Hall, on Thursday, at which Mr. DOBINSON presided. Considerable business was transacted, but nothing which requires publication. The beautiful bullock and heifer, twins, bred and fed by Mr. Edmund WALLAS, of Blennerhasset, near Brayton Hall, and which attracted so much attention at our late Cattle Show, were killed on Thursday last in this City, by Mr. John MATTHEWS, and excited the admiration of all who saw them. Their joint produce of tallow was 20 stone of 16 lbs. The bullock weighed 19 stone per quarter, and the heifer 17 stone. On Sunday forenoon, as a boy named BELL was coming on shore, at Whitehaven, from the William, Capt. HAYTON, to which ship he belonged, in crossing the Ann's deck, a dog made an attempt to bite him, when the boy, in his haste to get clear of the dog, had the misfortune to fall between two vessels, and the tide being out, he was very much hurt. Last week, Mr. S. MORTON, of Longburgh, was drowned in one the creeks on Burgh Marsh, into which he accidentally fell as he was on his way home from Sandsfield. A quantity of lead was last week torn off from the roof of Arthuret church and carried away by some depredators who remain undiscovered, though a reward of ten guineas has been offered for such information as shall bring them to punishment. In April, last year, we mentioned the very extraordinary circumstance of a green parrot, belonging to a gentleman at Corkickle, in this county, having deposited two eggs. The same bird, which has been nine years in the cage, has produced three more eggs! Last week, a woman went into the shop of a draper in Workington, to buy goods, when she became suddenly ill, and in a state of insensibility forced a pound note into her mouth and swallowed it. Since our last, another Irishman has been apprehended near Dumfries for attempting to commit a rape, on the body of a woman whom he met travelling about half-way on the road to Lochmaben. The female in question having made a most determined resistance, and another person having luckily come to her assistance, the villain was forced to desist, though not until he had literally torn the clothes from the back of the unfortunate person whom he thus sought to make the victim of his ****llowed desires.
Hi Paul, I have read through the marriage notices from the following newspapers between 06 Jan 1819 and end of January/beginning of February 1819: Carlisle Patriot; Carlisle Journal; Westmorland Gazette; Cumberland Pacquet and Ware's Whitehaven Advertiser; Lancaster Gazette.

A search of the free FamilySearch.org site shows a Marriage between a Robert WINTERS and a Mary SEWELL on the 6th of January, 1819 in Morland. There is no further information than that.

Saturday 01 May 1819 (p. 4, col. 2) KENDAL BURGH SESSIONS. William FISHER was indicted for a breach of the peace, and disturbing the family of Mr. Isaac WILSON, solicitor, on Sunday morning the 21st March last, to which he pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to three months' imprisonment in a solitary cell, and to find sureties for his good behaviour for 12 months afterwards. It appeared that FISHER had been indicted for an assault upon the constables at the Midsummer Sessions last year, was found guilty, and sentenced to three months' imprisonmentMr. WILSON having been employed in the prosecution was the sole cause of FISHER's antipathy; and out of malice he sought to revenge himself at midnight when the family were at rest. A true bill of indictment was found against Wm. ELLERAY, Robert ELLERAY, and Samuel AIREY, for an affray, and assaulting Edward BURTON, one of the constables of Kendal, whilst in the execution of his office.R. ELLERAY pleaded guilty, and paid £5 towards the costs of the prosecution, £5 5s. to be given to some public charity in the town; and having, through his solicitor, expressed his sincere contrition for the offence he had committed, the Court sentenced him merely to pay a fine of 5s. and be discharged. AIREY pleaded not guilty, but was convicted, and sentenced to two months' imprisonment; but on his way to the House of Correction he contrived to make his escape and and [sic] ran away. Wm. ELLERAY not appearing according to his recognizance, the same was estreated by the bench, and a bench warrant was ordered to take the defendant into custody. Mary FORD, wife of Geo. FORD, was indicted for stealing a piece of bombazette, the property of Mr. HEWETSON, from his shop in Strickland-gate, to which indictment she pleaded guilty, and the Court sentenced her to three months' confinement in the House of Correction. Hannah TUER, wife of TUER, also pleaded guilty to an indictment, charging her with stealing a copper can from the Rose and Crown Inn, in Kendal. She was sentenced to two months' imprisonment.
