Oxfordshire Assizes. Thomas Gumm, charged with having on the 19th day of October last, at
Fawler, maliciously stabbed Edward Pratley, with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. - Mr.
Keating was counsel for the prosecution, and Mr. Pigott appeared for the prisoner. Edward Pratley,
examined, I am a labourer residing at Finstock; on the 19th of October, was at the beer shop, at
Fawler Mill; many other people were there, and amongst them the prisoner; I was there altogether
about three hours and a half, and was perfectly sober; saw the prisoner with something in his hand;
heard him say he would cut bloody light into somebody that night; I was in the passage; the prisoner
came and struck me a blow with his left hand, and knocked my cap off; this was followed up by a
blow with his right hand, and I found myself stabbed a little above the thigh; I said I was stabbed,
and the prisoner ran away; I fainted, was carried home to Finstock, and was confined to bed twelve
days. Cross-examined - Had had only two pints of beer; it was Fawler Feast; there was dancing
going on; danced myself; saw no fighting; there were upwards of 100 people in and near the house;
know a person named Eltham; never said to him, I didn't know who stabbed me; told him it was
Thomas Gumm ;never had any doubt about the person who stabbed me; saw no quarrelling at the
mill. P. Akers examined - am brother-in-law to last witness; was the Mill, at Fawler Feast, about
half-past eight o'clock; saw the prisoner close to the settle; he had something in his hand like the

8
blade of a knife. I said here's Thomas Gumm standing with a knife open in hand; he immediately ran
to the passage, and I followed; when I got to the door heard some one say they had been stabbed;
found it was the prosecutor; prisoner ran away; I followed him; he was overtaken and searched.
Cross-examined - heard no row at he Mill; saw no fighting; that I will swear; did not hear the
prisoner make use of any expressions about stabbing. Sidnal Smith examined - on the evening in
question was at the Mill; heard Prattley say he was stabbed by Thomas Gumm; saw him stooping
and putting his hand to his side; I followed the prisoner and caught him, he ran towards Charlbury.
Jonathan Paine examined - I am proprietor of Fawler Mill and Beer House; the prisoner was at my
house on the evening of the Feast; served him with a cigar ; he appeared to have had a little beer, but
nothing to do him any injury; when I heard of Pratley's being stabbed, I sent for a surgeon. John
Godfrey examined - I am a surgeon, residing at Charlbury; attended the prosecutor, found a wound
in the left hip three quarters of an inch in diameter; he was very faint from loss of blood. A knife
would inflict such a wound; it was within two inches of a very dangerous part, and had it touched
that part, it would be almost sure to cause death. Mr. Pigott made an able defence. Verdict Guilty of
stabbing, with intent to do some grievous bodily harm.- 15 years' transportation.

CHIPPING NORTON. BOROUGH MAISTRATES' COURT. July 30th Before the Mayor, (T.
Mace, Esq.) Theft of Jewellery from the "Chequers" Minnie Pratley, aged 18, of Ramsden hawker,
was brought up in custody, charged with having stolen from the Chequers Inn, Chipping Norton, on
the 28th July, the property of Annie Freeman, 3 gold rings, 1 gold locket, 1 silver ring, 1 metal
locket, 1 chain, 1 brooch, and 2 yards of lace, value £3. Annie Freeman deposed: I live at the
Chequers' Inn with my uncle, William Tyler. On the 27th July, I slept in the house, and Minnie
Pratley, the defendant slept with me, and had done so since the previous Tuesday. On Saturday
morning I got up first, and went downstairs, leaving Pratley in the bedroom. The articles produced I
saw safe in a small box, in a drawer in my bedroom, on Friday afternoon. Pratley came down stairs
in about a quarter of an hour after I got up, and after breakfast she left the house. About half past
nine I went to the drawer for a handkerchief, when I missed the articles produced. About a quarter to
ten o'clock, I started from Chipping Norton with my mother to go to Chadlington and on the road we
passed the defendant and her mother. We went to the Sandy's Arms, at Chadlington, and shortly after
the defendant and Mrs. Pratley came in. My mother spoke to the defendant in the tap room, and the
defendant gave up the articles produced, saying they were all she had, and hoped we would forgive
her. Superintendent Cope applied for a remand in this case also. Defendant was then formally
remanded until Thursday, her father being bound in the sum of £50 for her appearance on that day
CHIPPING NORTON. BOROUGH MAGISTRATES' COURT. August 2nd Before the Ex-Mayor
(H.C. Wilkins, Esq.) and J.F. Penyston, Esq. Robbery at the "Chequers." Minnie Pratley, of Ramsden
Heath, hawker, was also brought upon remand, charged with stealing 3 gold rings, 1 gold locket, 1
silver ring, 1 metal locket, 1 chain, 1 brooch, and 2 yards of lace, value £3, the property of Annie
Freeman, on July 28th. Annie Freeman deposed: I reside at the Chequers' Inn with my uncle William
Tyler. The prisoner, Minnie Pratley had stayed in the house from Tuesday night till Saturday
morning. She slept in my bedroom with me. I last saw the articles produced about half past three on
Friday afternoon, the 27th. They were in a box, in a drawer in my bedroom. Neither the drawer nor
the box were locked. I missed the articles, about half-past nine on Saturday morning. I had occasion
to go to the drawer, and found the things were upset. Pratley had then left the house about an hour. In
company with my mother, about a quarter to ten, I started for Chadlington. On the road I went
overtook Pratley, but went on to the "Sandy's Arms". In about ten minutes after, prisoner came into
the house with her mother, and went into the tap-room. My mother afterwards came, and also went
into the tap-room. In about ten minutes I was called in, and there saw the prisoner and her mother,
and my mother. The things I had lost were lying on the table. Prisoner said she hoped we would
forgive her. My mother took possession of the things, I consider they are worth £3. Information
had not been given to the police before we started to Chadlington. The articles produced are those I
lost. Cross-examined: I told you I would forgive you, but said that I did not know whether my uncle
would.. Mrs. Smith, Chipping Norton, deposed: I am mother of the last witness, and accompanied
my daughter to Chadlington last Saturday. I went into the taproom at the "Sandy's Arms", and there
saw the prisoner. Mrs. Pratley asked me if anything was the matter. I said Annie had lost some things

from the drawer in her room. She said "I should think not." I then said "Yes, and no one has been
there but Minnie." Mrs. Pratley then said to prisoner "Minnie if you have got anything, do give it up;
how could you do such a thing." Prisoner hesitated for a minute or two, when her mother repeated
the question. Minnie then said she would give it up if I would promise that nothing should be said. I
told her I would, so far as I was concerned. She then asked me to go into another room, and prisoner,
her mother, and myself went into the parlour, and my daughter was called in. Prisoner pulled the
articles out of her pocket, and placed them on the table. The articles produced are the same. Prisoner
again asked me that no proceedings should be taken; but I told her I could not promise, as it was not
my house from which the things were taken. Superintendent Cope said: Shortly before 4o'clock on
Saturday afternoon last, the previous witness handed me the things produced, with the statement that
they had been stolen from a bedroom at the "Chequers", by Minnie Pratley. I then had my trap got
ready and went in search of prisoner, and found her at Ramsden Heath her home. I apprehended her,
when she said she was tempted to do it, that she had given the things up, and that it could not be
helped. I took her to the police station at Chipping Norton. A previous conviction was handed in,
prisoner having been convicted for a similar offence in conjunction with a man named Thornett. The
Bench committed the prisoner for trial at the October Quarter Sessions, but consented to admit her to
bail on the recognisances of her father, for £50, and a man named Scarrot, marine store dealer, of
Stow-on-the-Wold, in a like amount.
