It read: 'Samuel Worthington, canal boatman of Burscough, was charged with stealing 2lb of beef ans 2lb of fat, of the value of 2s 6d, from the shop of William Battersby, a butcher of Litherland. The prosecutor had occasion to leave his shop about nine o'clock the previous night and go to the rear of the premises. While he was absent, a person standing on the opposite side of the street saw the prisoner go into the shop, take the beef and fat, and then make off. This person then gave information to the prosecutor, who gave chase, and on coming up with the prisoner found the meat in his possession. The bench sent him to jail for one month.'

7147	Northwich Guardian - Inquest on John Leach, 21 Mar 1877 SUDDEN DEATH ON THE CANAL On Saturday last Mr Dunstan held an inquest at the Navigation Inn, Altrincham, touching the death of John Leech, of Runcorn, captain of a steam tug on the canal. The evidence was given as below. Mr Beddows, agent at Runcorn, watched the case on behalf of the Bridgewater Navigation Company. Ralph Ryder of Runcorn, engine driver, said: "I am Engineer on board the steam tug Runcorn, plying between Runcorn and Manchester upon the Duke of Bridgewater's canal, and deceased John Leech of Runcorn was the master or captain of the same tug. "Yesterday morning, the 16th inst, about three o'clock, he had got off the tug and walked about half a mile on the towing path. It was very dark. He got on the tug at Seamon's Moss Bridge, in Dunham Massey township. We were proceedong towards Broadheath for Manchester, when he got on the boat he put his coat on and went to the wheel to steer. About two minutes afterwards he suddenly fell down at my feet, he was that near. I raised him, but he never spoke. I gave him a drop of water, which he gurgled in his mouth. "I stopped the engine, and one of the boats which were towing ran alongside, and with the assitance of the boy with me and one of the boatmen I got deceased into the cabin. I started the engine and came on to Broadheath Bridge and called in poice constable Parrott. "We went into Altrincham to three surgeons, all of whom refused to attend. On returning to the boat, in half an hour, we found that deceased was dead. He might have been dead when we left to go to the surgeons. He was all but dead, but his eyes were not closed, and on our return they were closed, so I concluded that he was not quite dead when we left. He had been a great deal exposed to the weather, being up and down the canal night and day. "He was 39 years old. He never complained of pains. When deceased fell he breathed heavily. He lived a quarter of an hour." John Ryder, the youth above mentioned, was in attendance to corroborate, but was not examined. Verdict, "Died from naural causes, suddenly".	Leach, John (I30808)

7149	Not certain to be Ann's son, but mother's maiden name Wakefield on Cheshire BMDs,so illegitimate. in 1871 census as nephew of Peter and Elizabeth. Father's name given as Peter Wakefield in marriage record.	Wakefield, Alfred (I26267)
7150	Not confirmed by censuses but identified in son's marriage record, abode Canal Yard, Burscough Bridge, and probably same as husband of Alice Deakin (qv) m 21.9.1875, St Nicholas, Liverpool.	Tyrer, Peter (I16881)
