Snippets
January 4, 1865
Hatherleigh, petty sessions held on Wednesday before, J. H. VEALS, J. L. OLDHAM, and L. P. MADDEN Esq.‘s John DADDS, was formerly in the Devon Constabulary, but is now a member of the Gloucestershire Constabulary. He was stationed at Iddesleigh when in this county, and the graceful form of Miss Ann ALLEN attracted his attention. Like Enoch ARDEN he spoke his love, but it was in a letter, which was conveyed to the irresistible Ann. She was then living at Hill Farm Monk-okehampton, and acting upon the contents of John's missive she went out and met him. Into her acceptive ear he poured the "lecherous distilment" and she eventually became a mother. The interesting event probably induced DADDS to leave Devonshire, and he was now summoned to show cause why he should not contribute towards the maintenance of the child. An order was made for the payment of 1s a week, with the usual costs.

Fisher TURNER was the Rector, at present there are 198 scholars and 20 teachers, under the superintendence of Miss DADDS. [previous snippets on this school mention the Misses DADDS] The school is held at Back St, nearly opposite St Mary Magdalen Church [Boys school]. This school was originated by the Exeter Episcopal Sunday School Society. For years it was carried on in a house in Smythen St. The number of boys on the books is 160, there are 16 teachers, Mr Henry H. WIPPELL is the superintendent.
