[Edmund]

Mr Hawcroft died on Friday 18th December 1868, two days after the unfortunate incident with the bullocks.

Thanks Edmund.

A lesson to be learnt don't have your umbrella up when you encounter cattle!

In theory isn't it one of the privileges when someone receives freedom of the City they can drive their animals through the town? The bullocks wouldn't stand a chance on Ecclesall Road now!!
