Petty Sessions: Yesterday: Before Dr.  Atkinson and J. Vicary, Esq. … Reuben Blatchford was charged with wilfully breaking glass, value 6s 6d, belonging to Albert Prowse of Highweek, on the 19th June. This case arose out of the following: On the night in question, the complainant’s brother-in-law had been found by his wife in a certain house, and when he left was followed by two or three hundred persons until he sought shelter in the house of his sister. The crowd demanded to have him turned out. Failing that, several panes of glass were broken. It was alleged by the defendant who threw the stones: Jane Prowse, wife of the complainant, said she saw the defendant taking the most active part in the affray. She told him he had broken the glass. He replied, “If you don’t mention my name, I will put the glass in all right”. He was the ringleader of the mob, and if P.C. Salter hadn’t taken him away, she believed matters would have been much worse. Witness saw the defendant a few days afterwards and asked when he was going to put in the glass. He then denied having broken it, and said he should not put it in. Defendants now said he was standing by Mr. Pinsent’s door when the mob came up and someone threw some water out on their heads. Stones were then thrown at the window, and Mr. Prowse, knowing him, accused him of throwing them. He denied having done so. P. C.s’ Evens and Salter and Geo. Groves gave evidence in the case: Defendant was fined 13s 6d in addition to the 6s 6d, the value of the glass, or 14 days in default. …

Western Times: Saturday 16th March 1872:

Crown Court: Yesterday: Before Mr. Baron Bramwell: … Mary Ann Parkyn: a not very pleasant looking middle-aged woman (on bail) was charged with the manslaughter of Wm. Hy. Clampitt, aged fifteen weeks, at Bovey Tracey, on the 21st Dec. Mr. Clark and Mrs. St. Aubyn appeared for the prosecution, prisoner was undefended … … (description of events) … A few days before the death, a neighbour of the prisoner’s named Cross, heard the child crying a long time, and at last she went into the house and expressed herself surprised that they didn’t do something to stop the crying. After seeing the child, she told the prisoner that she believed she had kept it short of food and ought to be ashamed of herself, after which prisoner said she had had no money from the mother for a fortnight; she (prisoner) shouldn’t keep it much longer, and she didn’t care what became of it or where it went. A Mrs. Pinsent said she went in and saw the child, and she had never seen one in such a dreadful state before. Dr. Haydon said he saw the child just before it died, and after death made a post-mortem examination. He found no trace of disease, but the body was dreadfully emaciated, the face and bowels shrunk and there was an entire absence of fat…  The jury found her guilt. … Sentenced to eighteen months hard labour.
