Saturday March 2nd 11.30 am Mr
William Hedges, farmer, of Linford was in his fields adjoining swing bridge No
80 Gt Linford Parish on Saturday morning Mar 2nd when Messrs Fellows
Morton and Clayton’s Steamer VICTORIA Captain Wilkinson and butty boat HETTIE
Captain Henry Smith working north or towards Braunston passed through the above
Swing Bridge and left the same off or open and Henry Smith whose duty it was to
put the bridge over again refused to do so, although requested by Mr Hedges
. Smith also refused to give his name to
Mr Hedges.
Friday
March 8th about 9.30 pm
Messrs Fellows Morton & Clayton Ltd Steamer QUEEN
Captain Edward Griffiths and butty boat MARPLE Captain John Wenlock – These men
also left the swing bridge open or off.
Mr Hedges caught them and spoke to them about putting the bridge over
and they said they knew nothing about it.
Summons 1st Henry Smith
captain of boat HETTIE but now working for E Smith Canal Carrier of Brentford.
Summons
2nd John Wenlock captain of FMC boat MARPLE at Braunston
There is a notice on the bridge cautioning
boatmen re closing bridge:
GJC Notice:
Any person in charge of a boat, barge or other vessel neglecting to
close or fasten this swing bridge after passing through the same is liable to a
penalty of 10/- By order Oct 1904
Occupier has to go round to next
bridge half a mile away when swing bridge is open. Millner/?
19.6.1914 On the 13th inst when your steamer QUEEN was passing through lock 11 at Buckby, Beresford
the mate of the butty boat Kineton drew the lower paddles before closing the
top gates and by so doing wasted a considerable quantity of water as we are too
well off for water at present I must put a stop to the reckless way of working
the locks. I shall feel greatly obliged
if you will inform Beresford that unless he comes to the office when next
passing and pays the sum of 5/-, I shall take a summons under the Company’s
byelaw No 8 for the full penalty of 40/-.
Millner/FMC
30.6.1914 QUEEN
working through Blisworth Tunnel on 21st inst……Millner/FMC
not dated Dear Mr Millner, On arriving at
Cosgrove I found that steamers QUEEN &
VANGUARD had followed the iceboat and were prepared to go on tomorrow, so gave
instructions for your Cosgrave boat to make an early start for Fenny and wait
there for orders. Steamer VICEROY and
butty had left for Blisworth so get them through to Braunsrton if possible and
then stop. We arrived home at 4.25
having had a good run though on the cold side.
