On Monday 24th September 1827, an
inquest was held here into the death of James Bailey, a
Sheriff's officer. On Monday 10th September the deceased had
left home to attend the BELL
where the election Committee for Mr. Angell was sitting. On
his way he was met by a number of persons from the opposite
party who carried him by force to the
IMPERIAL ARMS and then to Wroxham
CASTLE. The
next morning they removed to Horning
SWAN and then on to Smallborough.
That night they went on to Ridlington
PLOUGH.
They returned to Norwich at about one o'clock on Friday
morning,14th Sept. Although it was said nothing was wanted
in eating and drinking, and nothing
done to injure a healthy man, poor Bailey was very ill and
suffered from being so moved about. After his return Bailey
had said he was as well as usual and the fresh air had done
him good. He worked at the Festival from Monday to Friday,
21st Sept. On the Saturday morning he had a fit of coughing,
burst a blood vessel and died.
The Jury considered that however cruel and unjustifiable was
his abduction, the onus of being instrumental in his death
was removed since he had subsequently worked at the
Festival.
"Died from the visitation of God."
