A Double Fatality
A Double Fatality is reported from Wymington, a village on the borders of Northamptonshire and Bedfordshire. A labourer with only one arm was assisting in unloading barley, when he fell and broke his neck. The deceased's employer, Thomas Foskett, visited the scene of the accident mounted on a young horse, and the animal, becoming unmanageable, threw its rider. Foskett died yesterday.

Coincident Fatalities
An Inquest held at Wymington, near Rushden, on Tuesday, showed a curious coincidence. Charles Headland, a one-armed man, working for Thomas Foskett, publican, was unloading barley when he accidentally fell from the cart and sustained such injuries that he died within a few minutes. His employer, hearing of this occurrence, immediately mounted a horse to ride to the scene of the accident. The animal shied at something on the road and Mr Foskett was thrown to the ground with considerable violence, and died soon afterwards from the injuries he sustained. A verdict of accidental death was returned in each case.
