HASTINGS AND St. LEONARDS. FATAL ACCIDENT.-An accident occurred to a man named Henry CHATFIELD, stonemason, on Saturday last about 12 o'clock, from the effects of which he died about seven o'clock on Sunday morning. An inquest was held at the Town Hall on Monday, before John Goldsbury Shorter, Esq., coroner, on view of the body of the unfortunate man, when it appeared from the evidence, that Mrs Tanner heard a noise in the yard and awoke her husband, who went down into the sitting room, and on looking out of the window he saw a man in the yard, and supposing it was some one trying to effect an entrance into the house to commit a robbery, he immediately went into the front room and opened the window, and called "police." Duly, who was on duty in George-street, immediately went round to the back of the house, and found deceased in a stooping posture. and having obtained a light he discovered that he was bleeding dreadfully from a wound on the head. With the assistance of policeman Mortimer, he led home deceased, who was quite sensible at the time - Mr. Robert Ranking, surgeon, deposed to being called he attend deceased, on whom he found an extensive wound at the back of the head, from which the blood flowed profusely. He died about seven o'clock on Sunday morning, the cause of his death being extravantion of blood on the brain, produced by a fall.-- From the evidence of George Stanford, landlord of the Albion Shades, and James Golding, it appeared that the deceased went to the Albion Shades about half-past nine in the evening, but did not have much to drink. Witness had never seen him tipsy. Between eleven and twelve, two men went into the shades drunk, and one, named Isted, was very abusive and quarrelsome. The deceased assisted in putting this party out of the house, when they swore they would smash the windows if they were not admitted, saying they had lost a hat. The deceased was in the house at the time the party was re-admitted; but witness did not know which way he left; the general supposition being, that the deceased, fearing something would occur, had made his way out at the back of the premises, and in attempting to get over the wall into an adjoining garden, accidentally fell into the yard below, which would be a distance of twenty feet. He has left a widow and three children; he bore the character of a quiet, sober man.- Verdict, "Accidental Death." - Mr. Cagger, the foreman, proposed that the 17/- allowed the jury, should be given to the widow, which was unanimously agreed to. The funeral of poor Chatfield who, no doubt lost his life through his wish to avoid a quarrel, took place on Thursday afternoon, in All Saints’ burial ground, when about fifty members of the Friendly Society in which he belonged, attended him to his resting place. A very strong feeling of regret at his untimely end prevails among the inhabitants of this neighboured. Henry Chatfield Sussex Advertiser 3 Feb 1846 ----- Find A Grave Memorial# 101352461 |

Thank you. ----- Elegaic Lines on the loss of the Steam Ship "Cawarra" at Newcastle, 12th July 1866. Ah, mourn, Newcastle! A most dismal sight Afflicts thy coast - most unexampled woe - Here widows’ cries with orphans’ sobs unite, And tears of sympathy all eyes o’er flow - Wailing, with a deep-felt sorrow, Thy sad fate, proud ship, CAWARRA! Vain was they conflict with the furious storm; Vain every effort maid by steam of sail; A little further - danger had been gone, And though hadst weathered the terrific gale; Still we gazed, and chill’d with horror Saw the founder - proud CAWARRA! Brave Captain CHATFIELD, officers, and all Thy cre - sae one have perished in the wave, And deeper still our feelings to appal, We watched thee sinking and no hand to sae. Prayer alone ascended for her - "God have mercy - lost CAWARRA!" Hark! on the ear, the doleful minute gun Proclaims the movement of the funeral train, Hearses and drays in long procession come Laden with relics from the ruthless main. Thousand weeping mourners follow, Sigh and say "alas! CAWARRA." In crescent form and piteous to behold, There on the earth, in awful silence view, The young, the strong, the delicate, the bold One common grave receives THE TWENTY-TWO! Precious hope from faith we borrow, To assuage our grief, CAWARRA! Oh! Lay them gently where no angry blast Their rest shall ruffle, or their fears restore, Their voyage is ended, and their anchor cast Where winds and waves can never hurt them more. Who shall boast of life tomorrow, Let him think of thee, CAWARRA! G. Wood, Sydney ----- The Perilous Gate Verses written by the author of "Craddock Head" descriptive of the heroic conduct of CAPTAIN CHATFIELD, in connection with the wrecks of the "Helen Lancaster" and the "Cawarra", the latter of which he was Commander, and with that ill-fated vessel lost his life. A gray and weather-beaten man Sat by me on the shore, Ruddy and strong, although his span Of life had reached three score; And sitting there upon the sand, He pointed with a rugged hand To where, upon the other strand, We heard the mimic roar Of dancing wavelets in their play And thus this grizzled man did say: Yes, Sir, a pretty entrance - Though, were I homebound sail, I’d rather far stand out to sea, Than chance that bank upon my lee When blows a stiffish gale. A perilous and narrow gate That e’en the stoutest seamen hate To enter when the wind Blows hard from either south or east, And each huge surge, with crest of yeast, Comes roaring like a wounded beast. And mountains roll behind. 'Twas toward the close of winter, It had blown hard all the night, And the great sea-horses tearing by, Tossing their glimmering manes on high, Raced madly past the bight; A wild southeaster lashed them From their wide ocean home A moment on the bank they’d glower, Then curling up aloft they’d tower And leap ashore in the deaf’ning shower Of blinding spray and foam. The sun seen through the driving haze, Swam in a mist of blood, As o’er the lurid heavens Was whirled the lowering scud; And some with dull forebodings, From their snug homes did haste, For many a man came here to see If inbound craft there chanced to be, And sailors’ wives looked anxiously Out on the surging waste. Past noon, a steamer making in Out yonder you could see, Now rolling calmed in yawning troughs, 'Gulphed to her main crosstree; Then climbing from the chasm, On the white tops she’d ride, When catching the full tempest’s force She’d stagger in her onward course, And plunging like a wearied horse, Yaw over on her side. Said I: "That’s the Cawarra". I knew her by her bow; And as she neared mutely aghast We stood there straining through the blast, Hoping that once the Nobbys past The harbour she might make at last Though many there, I trow, With knowledge of this narrow gate, Had sick forewarnings of her fate, For close to leeward now, Two cables’ length, the Oyster Bank Lay beaconed by a ship that sank A good ten years ago. Yes; ten good years the Oyster Bank Was beaconed by a spar That stood where once in like storm sank The Helen Lancaster. Five fathoms deep the rotting shell Up-reared this slender spar to tell Of a brave deed done nobly well Upon this very bar. Many, sir, in the Abbey sleep Who gained their laurels on the deep In doughty deeds of war, Who yet have less deserved their fame Than one of whom few know the name - A brave and simple tar. For when the Helen Lancaster, In another such a gale, Went stern-first down nigh from the town Some thought they heard the wail Of those sixteen poor wretches Who climbed aloft for life, And sat there huddled in the top With nothing but this slender prop, Which at each blow you’d think must drop In the unequal strife. There thronged then on the Nobbys A horror-stricken crowd; And I was there, and some there were In pity sobbed aloud; And some would point and some would rave, And beg us sailor-men to save These castaways, and baulk the grave Of those who’d donned their shroud. An awful sea was running, And not in all the crew Was one who thought boat could be brought Those boiling breakers through; For on the bank each roller Broke as it onward swept, And far and wide the seething tide In maddest tumult leapt. "It cannot be - no boat could live!" A chum of mine began; "Impossible!" - when through the crowd A little fair-haired man Pushed, panting as from running fast, And peered out through the raging blast As though the wreck to scan: Then quickly turned and looked about, Searching some face to find, Stranger or friend, whom Heaven might send Of like courageous mind. The first mate of the Thistle - A quiet man enough - Though none had guessed that this stout breast, In its blue serge, brass buttoned vest, Held such heroic stuff. "Now lads" he shouted shrill and clear, "Who’ll venture it with me? Each minute lost a life may cost In such a tumbling sea. With four good mates I’ll wager We’ll bring all safe to shore - Come, who will try?" "Three answered "I", And I, Sir, made the four. |
