DRUNKEN BURGLARS. - Four men, who gave the names of James Penton, William Ward, JOhn Booth, and Henry Smith, were, on the 18th inst. charged before the Rev. H. J. Passand and W. Evetts, Esq. at Woodstock, with having, on the previous Monday night, broken into the house of Mark Chaundy, of the Gardener's Arms, at Tackley, and stolen therefrom some cheeses, about 2lbs. of tobacco, some soap, &c. It appeared that Chaundy was alarmed by a noise early on Tuesday morning, and that on his getting up he found that his cellar han been broken into at the window, and that the above articles were gone. The pri- soners were found near at hand with the articles in possession, and in such a drunken state as to be unable to get away with their booty. It appeared that they had very freely indulged in the landlord's strong ale till they became intoxicated, and were thus detected. They were committed for trial at the Assizes. |

... BURGLARY AT TACKLEY - Henry Smith, John Booth, William Ward, and James Penton, were charged with breaking into the house of Mark Chaundy, at Tackley, and stealing three cheeses, 2 lbs. of soap, 2 lbs. of tobacco, and other articles. It appeared that in the night of the 16th of October last the prosecutor and his family were disturbed by a noise in the lower part of the house, and on going down the prosecutor found that his cellar door had been broken open, and that two men were in the street in front of his house. He returned to bed, and about half an hour after was again disturbed by a noise, when he called up his son and a lodger, and on going down stairs and examining the premises they found the bars of the cellar window removed and the cellar window broken, and three cheeses missing. He went out with two others, in search of the parties, and met with the prisoners not far from his house; they had gone to a haulm stack in Chilton's rick-yard, where he found the two cheeses which had been stolen from his cellar. They brought the pri- soners back to his house, when they were searched, and upon Smith was found some tobacco, on Booth some soap, cheese, and tobacco, on Penton the strap, and on Ward the two-quart wood bottle, all of which were identified by the prosecutor as his pro- perty. The Jury found all the prisoners guilty. The Judge, in passing sentence, commented on the enormity of the offence committed by the prisoners, and sentenced them to transporta- tion for ten years. |

On Monday, at Tackley, on the body of John Chaundy, aged 47, who had died suddenly on the previous day. - Mrs. Faulkner, the wife of a labourer, deposed to knowing that the deceased was ill in bed on Sunday morning, and that he complained of a "fluttering" in his inside, for which she got him some brandy and water. She then left, and just at the time that people were going to evening service at the Church she went to his room again, and found that he was lying dead in bed. He appeared to have gone off quietly, as the bed clothes were not in disorder. - Mr. F. Taylor, surgeon, Woodstock, who had attended deceased professionally, said that he made an external exami- nation of the body, and from his knowledge of the deceased, and from what he had heard, he had no doubt he died from no other than natural causes. - The Jury returned a verdict to that effect. |

NEW STRING BINDER. - During the past week a new labour-saving machine was to be seen at work in the harvest field upon the farms of Mr. Chaundy, at Wootton Down and Tackley. This new product of mechanical ingenuity is a reaper and binder in one, and we under- stand that Mr. Chaundy obtained it through Messrs. Barford, of Banbury. At the time we saw it the machine had four horses attached to it, and was cutting wheat up the side of a hill. We believe, however, that two horses on level ground are amply sufficient for the work, and a moderate calculation gives from 11 to 13 acres cutting and binding as the result of a day's labour. The sheaves are collected together by the action of the machine, securely the sheaves in stooks. The price of the machine is about sixty guineas, and we understand that Mr. Chaundy expects to recover the original outlay in the first season's use. The ordinary cost of labour for tying alone is about 5s. per acre; for cutting and tying from 11s. to 12s. per acre. Few large farmers - even those most wedded to old customs and given to walking in the old paths - would venture to attack the harvest without the aid of the modern reaper; and if this latest innovation of the string-binder proves to be as servicable as it promises, not liable to get out of order, and inexpensive to repair as well as cheaper another season in its original cost, the machine in question will no doubt come into general use. We shall be glad to hear from any other districts in this and the neighbouring counties if other farmers have given it a trial. We under- stand that several landowners and farmers have seen it at work on Mr. Chaundy's farm, and have been favourably impressed with the work done by it. |

The Woodstock Rural District Council having de- clined to accede to the request of the Tackley Parish Council to repair a road leading from Nethercote to Kirtlington, the latter body, under Section 16 of the Local Government Act, 1894, made complaint to the County Council, who appointed a sub-committee to inquire into the matter and report to the Council. ... Richard Chaundy said he accompanied the Award Commissioner from Nethercote to Flight's Mill in 1848. He did not recollect the gate, but remembered the allotments. The Commissioner's men measured from the clump of trees down to the Ford. Mill-lane was then enclosed between two fences, but he saw it mea- sured. They measured it, and then took a bit of mould out with a spade. |
