Friday fo'nnight John Friday, the younger, of Creeting St. Mary, labourer, was committed to Ipswich gaol, by Samuel Uvedale, Esq, charged with stealing five geese, the property of Susan Harrold, of Earl Soham; and Samuel Bugg, of Needham-Market, was also committed, for receiving the said geese, knowing them to be stolen. Ipswich Journal, 21 Feb 1789. -------------------------------------------------- Monday Sam. Bugg, who, at the General Quarter Sessions, held yesterday in this town, was sentenced to 14 years for receiving geese knowing them to have been stolen from Mrs. Harrold of Stonham, hanged himself in the privy in our goal with his handkerchief; but afterwards repented, and in endeavouring to save himself, kicked against the door, which was heard by a prisoner, who on seeing him thus suspended gave the alarm, and he was cut down, but not till every sign of life had left him. Medical assistance being immediately had, in about 15 minutes he was brought to his senses; he is at this time very ill of a fever, and so choaked, as not to be able to swallow anything but liquids. Ipswich Journal, 2 May 1789
