Convict Notes
The Maitland Mercury and Hunter River General Advertiser (NSW : 1843 - 1893) Sat 1 Jan 1848 Page 2 DROWNING. -On Tuesday morning last an old man named Thomas Taylor, who was a small settler, residing near the river on the Lorn estate, above Pitnacree, called 0n a neighbour, named William Curry, for the loan of a towel and soap, and a shirt, saying that he was going to wash his own shirt, and have a good wash himself. Curry lent him these articles, and accompanied him to the river-side, at a place where the water, at a short distance from the bank, suddenly deepens to nine-feet. Having seen Taylor take off his shirt, Curry went home to remove his bullocks to a paddock. In about a quarter of an hour Curry returned to the river, and was horror-struck to find no trace of Taylor, although the two shirts and towel remained on the bank, where he had last seen Taylor. After vainly searching for him he concluded the poor man must have slipped into the river, and accordingly alarmed the neighbours, by whom the river was first raked and then dragged for some hours, without success. At the time of the accident the tide was rising. No tidings were heard of the unfortunate man till Thursday morning, when a man in the employ of Mr. Putts discovered the body floating in the river, about a mile and a half (by water) from where the accident occurred. An enquiry was held on the body the same afternoon by E D. Day, Esq., P. M., when Dr. Wilton made a post mortem examination, as well as the highly decomposed slate of the body would allow; no mark of violence was found about the body or skull, which Dr. Wilton particularly examined; he thought death had been caused by suffocation arising from drowning. A verdict was recorded of accidental death by drowning
