Serious Charge of Malicious Injury to Horse: At the Town Hall, on Monday, before Sir W. …  Henry Partridge 7 years, James Moyse 8, John Sanders were charged with wilfully driving two horses belonging to Mr. John Pinsent, farmer of Kingsteignton over an embankment, thereby occasioning their death and committing injury to the amount of £10. Mr. Francis appeared for the defendants. On the evening …  inst., Elizabeth Thorne, residing at Hackney, saw the boys driving four horses towards the place where all of them were killed. She called to the boys not to … them so, but they took no notice of her. She … stated that they were the defendants. William Carnall (?) saw the boys going across the marshes towards Hackney about an hour afterwards, they returned, when Moyse told him that two horses had fallen into a pit. Moyse told (?) him the place, but the other defendants ran away. He afterwards found two horses in a pit; one was dead and the other seriously injured by a stake having entered its side. The complainant’s brother (Henry Pinsent) stated that Moyse had told him that it was Partridge or Sanders who had driven the horses into the pit. Francis objected to this being taken as evidence: The defendants not having been present at the time. The magistrate dismissed the case, remarking that the complainant ought (not?) to have had so dangerous a place round.
