DEATHS - if anyone finds a death listed here, it would be a good idea to
check with me for any other details that might come to hand. Deaths through
accidents, or those resulting in an inquest, may have additional material in
the paper. In addition, auctioneers' advertisements for sales relating to
deceased estates can sometimes yield quite detailed lists of the late
person's possessions.

EPITOME OF SUFFOLK NEWS
Housebreaking And Courageous Conduct Of A Female.---On Sunday morning, about
two o'clock, the wife of Mr Charles SARGENT, furniture dealer, etc, of
Melford, was in bed and awake, when she heard a noise in the pantry, like
the rattling of glass bottles. Having awakened her husband and obtained a
light, they both went down stairs, and saw two men run out into the yard.
Although only attired in their night clothes, they quickly followed the
thieves, but soon lost sight of them, but Mrs SARGENT, on looking round, saw
a man secreted behind a post, in a crouching attitude. She rushed at him,
and having thrown her arms around him, a struggle ensued, in which her face
was forced against the wall, and she received a blow on the nose, from which
the blood flowed freely. Her husband, being close at hand, took charge of
the man, while Mrs SARGENT went to the Police-station, next door. Inspector
KEEBLE, who had just arrived home, immediately returned with her, and took
the man into custody on the charge of housebreaking. Upon searching him at
the station, a hare and a table knife were found in his coat pocket. On
returning to Mr SARGENT's house, the latter told the Inspector that he had
also lost a goose, and upon looking about, a goose was found in a meadow
adjoining the yard. Upon further examination, foot marks of two persons were
visible, leading towards the premises. The knife no doubt was used in
opening the back door. The prisoner's name is Charles OST, bricklayer,
brother to two men were tried at the last Assizes for housebreaking.
