    1. [ENG-WESTMORLAND] Carlisle Journal, 13 Jul 1844 - Accident / Insolvent Debtor
    2. Petra Mitchinson
    3. Saturday 13 Jul 1844 (p. 2, col. 8 - p. 3, col. 1) On Thursday afternoon, a melancholy accident occurred to a man of the name of Thomas HODGSON, farmer, of Penrith, who was working a quarry at Maidenhill, and had gone to the nearest public-house to get some refreshment for himself and the other men employed in the quarry. He appears to have indulged too freely, and fell from the top to the bottom of the quarry, a distance of 12 yards. He was conveyed home, and medical attendants were quickly on the spot, but the back part of the skull is so much fractured that very faint hopes are entertained of his recovery. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.-At a court for the relief of insolvent debtors, held at the Shire Hall, Appleby, on Ftiday [sic], the 5th inst., before David POLLOCK, Esq., Jonathan TITTERINGTON, late of Armside, Westmoreland, the only insolvent brought up, was ordered to be discharged forthwith.
