1839: Oxford Chronicle, 30 Nov
Before the same Coroner [J.W. Cowley], at Winslow, on the 13th inst., on view of the body of Mr. John Brise, aged 40, a highly respectable farmer, who came by his death under the following distressing circumstances:- about 12 o’clock on the previous Monday he mounted a spirited horse, for the purpose of breaking him in; after rearing and plunging for some time, he started off, and proceeded about 50 yards, when one of the stirrup-leathers gave way, and deceased was thrown against a post, which produced a violent concussion of the brain. Surgical assistance was immediately procured, but every effort proved unavailing, as he died in a state of insensibility a few hours afterwards. – Verdict, “Accidental Death, with a deodand of 1s. on the horse.” We regret to add the unfortunate deceased has left a widow and five children to deplore their loss; he was brother to the wife of Mr. Joseph Ivatt, of Aylesbury.

Emma Holt, a girl of about 11, was charged with stealing a toy horse, value 2s. 6d., the property of Mr. W. Fitt. Prosecutor, a farmer living at Red Hall, Winslow, stated the toy belonged to his child and had been given to her as a present. He last saw it in a shed close to her house; that was on Wednesday a week ago. He had not missed it until the police brought it on Saturday.
Louisa Walker, a girl of 11, said defendant was a companion of hers, and she went with her to Mr. Fitt’s fields to play. They saw Mr. and Mrs. Fitt drive out in the cart. Defendant then said, “Lou, shall I take this horse?” Witness said, “No, Emma; you’ll get summoned if you do.” They were coming away, and then defendant went and fetched the horse. It was under a shed. They met Mr. and Mrs. Fitt coming back, and Holt laid the horse down on the ground and sat on it. Defendant afterwards took the horse home; witness saw her do it. ... [Emma was let off by the magistrates because of her age but came before them again a few months later]
