Saturday 28 Jun 1845 (p. 2, col. 7-8) There is now living at Keswick a venerable British seaman named MARTIN, who is in the 84th year of his age, and who one day last week undertook to accompany one of the tourists to the top of the far-famed Skiddaw. This aged son of the ocean accomplished his task with so much ease as to excite the astonishment of the gentleman to whom he acted as guide, who candidly confessed that the old tar outstripped him by his activity in ascending the hills. On climbing the mountain the tourist, who felt the effect of weariness, sat down to rest; but the old sailor, who was far a-head of his companion, called upon him to proceed or he should be obliged to leave him! AFFECTING INCIDENT.-We are sorry to hear that one of the passengers who visited Tynemouth from Leeds, on Saturday week, in the full prospect of a pleasing excursion, has been carried back to his native place a lifeless corpse. He had died, it is supposed, a victim to the imprudence of bathing whilst in a weakly condition. He was afflicted with Hernia, and the cold water had produced strangulation of the rupture, causing inflammation, and ultimately, mortification, of which he died on Friday, and his remains were sent home by the train on Saturday. FATAL ACCIDENT.-On Monday afternoon a shipwright of the name of Thomas MONROE, who had just returned from sea, slipped his foot from a stage in FORSYTH's dock, fell into the dock bottom, and was picked up lifeless.-Tyne Mercury. ACCIDENT.-On Saturday last, a young man named Joseph DODD, was killed by a train of the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway passing over him accidently, near Fourstones station. He had, the day before, been appointed to the situation of repairer, and was probably not aware of the exact time of the train's passing. The engineer observed him at a little distance, and blew the engine whistle. He was also called to by some workmen near, but his attention being engaged, he was not roused in time to save his life. INQUEST ON MRS. GOULEE.-We stated in our last, that Mrs. GOULEE had died in consequence of the wound inflicted by the pistol shot, fired at her by her husband. On Tuesday an inquest was held on the body, by J. M. FAVELL, Esq., coroner for Durham. The facts proved before the coroner were generally those of which we gave a brief statement, with the exception of the evidence of Mrs. GILES, sister-in-law of Mrs. G. which went to prove that an altercation was going on with respect to the supposed intimacy of Mrs. GOULEE with Mr. SCRUTON, at the very time of that gentleman's appearance in the street, and that it was the wife's proposal to call him in, with a view that he himself might assert her innocence, which led to the unfortunate catastrophe. It was clear from the evidence of Mrs. GILES, that GOULEE was on that evening in state hardly consistent with perfect sanity, which the luckless woman's proposal seemed to bring to a climax, and the perpetration of the deed followed. The wound itself was not a mortal one; the testimony of Mr. GREEN, the surgeon, being direct to the point, that the deceased was doing well, and the wound healing, when Tetanus, and ultimately lock jaw came on. One circumstance deserves remark, and that is the fact of a pocket book having been given by GOULEE after he was taken to gaol to SEWELL, which he asserted to contain some document that bore upon his position. The book was put under seal by the magistrates, and examined by the Coroner, who said, after a minute examination, that it contained nothing that in the slightest degree had reference to the case! This seems to prove either that the miserable man laboured under a decided delusion, or that some document connected with the case was abstracted before the book was sealed up. The Jury, after a lengthened investigation, returned a verdict of manslaughter, finding that "Emma GOULEE came to her death by a pistol shot fired by Louis Henry GOULEE, whilst in a state of great excitement." The Magistrates, after the investigation of the coroner, set on foot some further enquiries, but nothing was elicited in the slightest degree to alter the complexion of the case.
