Teignmouth Post and Gazette: Friday 15th November 1901

Football: Played at Totnes on Saturday. The visitors kicked off and play settled in the home territory for some time: Teignmouth having rather the best of the matter. … Nott restarted for the homesters, and the visitors rushed into the Totnes twenty-five, Searle kicking to touch. Totnes continually pressed the visitors and did some pretty passing but the Teignmouth defences were sound. From a mark Pinsent just missed a goal and shortly after the same player nearly dropped a goal from the twenty-five-yard flag. From a good following-up Searle was all but over. Play became somewhat uninteresting owing to the darkness and time was called leaving the game a pointless draw.

Cricket: On Saturday last, White, Chatton and Co. met Bovey for the first time at Bovey, and the visitors emerged from the contest with great credit and a win with 15 runs to boot …  Winning the toss, the visitors went in first, Harding and French facing the bowling of W. Pinsent and Staddon. … Davey, the captain, played steadily, assisting Cribbett to put on a few more runs. His contribution totalled five. Tucker and Kernick came out very cheaply, and neither Wotten nor Ward troubled the scorer at all. A special word of praise is due to A. Pinsent who captured 4 wickets for 7 runs and brought off the hat trick. … The home team on going in looked like winning the match with very little difficulty, Staddon, and Carpenter scoring at a great pace. … The only other batsman on the home side, with the exception of the two already named, to make any stand against Davey’s bowling was W. Pinsent who played very carefully for 10.

Gloucester Journal: Saturday 1st June 1901

Gloucester Police Court: City Petty Sessions, Wednesday: Before Messrs. A. Woodward (in the chair), W. Long and J. Ward: … (continues) …

Edward Sidney Pinsent, a respectably dressed young fellow, living with his widowed mother at Coney Hill, was charged with indecent behaviour on May 23rd. Mr. Langley-Smith appeared for the prisoner, who pleaded not guilty.

From the evidence of Amy Foulkes (23) of 3, Chequer’s Lane, it appeared that about 11 o’clock on the night of the date named she was returning from the Albert Hall and when near her house, the prisoner came and stood before her and behaved in an indecent manner. Defendant ran away home.

Mr. Langley Smith, in addressing the Court on behalf of the accused, said his client was a sea-faring youth and was now resident with his mother. During his last voyage he had had an attack of malarial fever which left him with a physical weakness. He was not always responsible for his actions and was very erratic in his conduct. It was a question whether it would not be desirable to adjourn the case in order that a medical man might examine the prisoner.

Accused, on going into the witness box denied seeing Miss Foulkes on the date in question and said he was in-doors with his mother all that evening. He never remembered seeing the prosecutrix or behaving indecently towards her.

Prisoner’s mother was called and bore out Mr. Langley-Smith’s remarks. To the best of her belief her son stayed in the house all evening on Thursday and went to bed early. Prisoner, who had been fined £2 and costs at Bristol in 1898, for a similar offence in the public park, was now sent to prison for one month, with hard labour.

Mr. D. C. C. Philpott, said there were many chargers of a similar nature against prisoner, but he did not propose to go into them…
