Wells Journal: Saturday 23rd June 1860

Langport: On Monday, Mr. Thomas Pitty, of Oath, was hauling timber from Burton Pinsent, and finding the shafts tipped, he sat on them to keep them down, but had not proceeded far before the horse began to kick. In jumping off to take the horse’s head, Mr. Pitty fell before a piece of timber which was slung under the carriage, and as the horse went fast clown a slight incline, the poor man was forced on over the road, and was crushed in a frightful manner, almost every rib being broken. He was taken to a cottage close by, and Mr. Larcombe, surgeon, was sent for, but there is only very slight hope of his recovery.
