Leighton Buzzard Observer and Linslade Gazette: Tuesday 2nd April 1889

evening last, when there was rather poor attendance of members. Mr. J. Thornhill was elected to the chair, and the accounts, which unfortunately showed deficit £3 16s. 7d., were passed. A vote of thanks was passed to the officers, but some consternation was caused the resignation of the hon. sec. and the assistant sec. Messrs. T. Wilson and A. Morrison. Various names were proposed for those offices, but at last these gentlemen were persuaded to remain in office. A. Lucas, Esq., and Pynsent Smith, Esq., were added the list vice-presidents, and Mr. Henry Strong accepted the post of treasurer, vice Mr. J. Whitlock. A proposition was passed which ruled that members playing in out-town matches should pay their share of expenses, and the meeting was brought a close.

Western Times: Saturday 27th April 1889

The funeral of the late Mr. Tom Pinsent, the eldest of the three sons of the firm of Pinsent and Sons, brewers, and spirit merchants, of Newton Abbot, took place yesterday morning at Highweek in the presence of a large circle of relatives and sympathising friends, by whom the deceased was held in the highest esteem. His death, occurring at the early age of 47, caused quite a sadness among the parishioners generally, who showed their respect for him by partially closing their shops and drawing their blinds during the hour of sepulture. Mr. L. Bearne was the undertaker; Mr. Colwill, of the Commercial Hotel, supplied the open hearse and coaches, and the men employed by the firm acted as bearers. The Rector (Rev. S. G. Harris) officiated. Deceased leaves a widow, but no family.
