The Times, Wednesday, Mar 28, 1894; pg. 8; Issue 34223; col B The Double Murder Near Margate.- At the Cinque Ports Petty sessions at Margate yesterday morning, Sarah TUCKER, a widow, was charged with the willful murder of her two children, aged three years and a half and three months respectively, at Garlinge near Margate on March 20th. Evidence given to the effect that the prisoner was left in the house at 6 o'clock in the morning with the children. She has previously been strange in her manner and at times greatly depressed. Nothing being seen by her of the neighbours up to the noon the house was entered and the two children were found in bed dead. Both their skulls were fractured and there was a large number of other wounds about their heads and faces. A large Billhook was laying on the floor. The prisoner, who also had a large number of wounds about the head and face, was lying on the bed. A cord was tied around her neck and fastened to the bedstead. The woman was removed to the Cottage Hospital at Margate and it was found that she was suffering from delusions, the medical opinion being that she was not responsible for her actions. The prisoner was formally remanded to Canterbury Gaol for a week in order that the Home Office might be communicated with. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

The Times, Friday, Feb 25, 1921; pg. 7; Issue 42654; col C Margate Baby's Death. £200 Paid For Adoption. The inquest was concluded at Margate yesterday on the body of a baby registered as Elinor Mary COOPER. The Childs's mother, Mrs Jessie HOLDEN of Broadstairs and Elinor Mary COOPER of Margate, by whom it was adopted, are under remand on a charge of supplying false information to the Deputy Registrar of Birth. Mrs HOLDEN, in evidence, said she got into communication with Mrs COOPER through a newspaper advertisement, and £200 was paid for the adoption of the child. The intended journey of the witness and her husband to Africa was the reason for entrusting the child to Mrs COOPER and they thought it would be properly looked after. The Deputy Coroner pointed out that Dr Webster, the Home Office expert, had reported that there was no trace of mineral poison in the internal organs of the child. The jury returned a verdict to the effect that death was due to blood poisoning, but that there was no evidence as to how it was caused. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

The Times, Monday, Mar 22, 1926; pg. 19; Issue 44226; col D Missing Margate Boatmen. It is feared that two Margate boatman Denis MCDONAUGH, engineer and Percy Alfred MUNDAY, mate have lost their lives with the motor boat Sunbeam on Saturday night. The boat left Margate Harbour about 9.45 to take off two Gravesend pilots from outward-bound vessels, and was expected to return about Midnight. Heavy seas were running at the time and there was a strong wind. As the Sunbeam did not return till Sunday morning the Margate lifeboat was launched to search the sea. About seven or eight miles out the lifeboat found a quantity of wreckage consisting of a lamp box, part of an engine case, and tins of petrol and paraffin which were identified as belonging to the Sunbeam. There was no trace of the two men and it is feared that they have been drowned. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

The Times, Tuesday, Jul 16, 1935; pg. 5; Issue 47117; col C Margate Gas-Poisoning Case Sentence Reduced The Court of Criminal appeal, the Lord Chief Justice Mackinnon and Mr Justice Finlay, yesterday reduced to two months imprisonment in the second division the sentence of three years' penal servitude passed at Maidstone Assizes by Mr Justice Charles, on Amy Gertrude Ethel BOURNE, who pleaded guilty to the attempted murder of her two children by gas poisoning. In a fit of depression after a quarrel with her husband, the appellant, who had been a good wife and mother, and had always borne a good character, decided to take her own life and that of her two children. A Lodger burst open the door and the attempt was frustrated. The Director of Public Prosecutions having notified the court that he did not desire to be represented, the application for leave to appeal was treated as a final appeal. The Lord Christ Justice said that the Judge at the trial took a quite proper and grave view, but the members of the Court were all of the opinion that the sentence of three year penal servitude called for revision, and it would be reduced to one of two months imprisonment in the second division. The case might be treated as a case in which leave to appeal had been granted, and the sentience would run from the first day of Maidstone Assizes. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

In the Sheriff's Court held at Margate yesterday by Mr W H WHITEHEAD, Under Sheriff for Kent, the jury awarded damages amounting to £1,831 12s to Thomas Sidney BULLOCK, decorator of Hengist Avenue, Margate, against John Patrick Brown of Rotherhithe, for injuries received in an accident at Northdown Road, Margate last August. Fifteen hundred pounds of the damages was placed under the heading of "future loss of wages". The defendant did not appears and was not represented. Interlocutory judgment had been obtained in High Court. It was stated that the plaintiff was riding home on a bicycle at night when the defendants car, alleged to be travelling at 40 miles an hour, struck a gate post and then ran into the plaintiff from behind. He became unconscious, and among other injuries, he received a fracture to the base of his skull which caused permanent loss of sense of smell, partial loss of taste and occasional giddiness, and a permanent internal injury which would necessitate an operation every two of three months for the rest of his life.

The Times, Monday, Feb 21, 1825; pg. 3; Issue 12582; col E February 18th.-A most distressing accident occurred at Newgate station, near Margate, on Wednesday evening last. John BURKE, a seaman of the blockade service, had taken the two infant children of Lieutenant NIGHTINGALE, to play in the garden which is situated near the edge of the cliff; one of them, a very fine little boy, names Alfred, 16 months old, was in his arms, and whether the child made a spring, and the man tried to save it, or whether the cliff gave way, or the man slipped from the grass, being wet, is unknown, but both man and child were precipitated over the cliff, and fell a height of 40 feet. The other child, a little girl, was the only person who saw the accident, and, by her shrieks, alarmed its parents and others, who immediately ran to their assistance, and medical aid was called in, but to no purpose, as the man, John BURKE, was found with his neck dislocated, and the infant died almost instantly after being picked up. The agonised feelings of its parents are more easily imagined than described. The unfortunate mother has been in fits ever since. This miring and inquest was held on the tow bodies, before Sir T MANTELL, Mayor of Dover and Coroner, when the jury returned a verdict of "accidental death". -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
