1873 Parish Church Restoration (accident) On Monday last, November the 3rd 1873, as the man employed at the restoration of the parish church in the village when letting down a piece of timber weighing about half a hundredweight, it by some means fell a distance of between 20 and 40 feet striking a young man named George HILLSON on the side of the head and by the shoulder. Stimulants were administered and he was assisted home and medical assistance procured and he is progressing better than it was at first thought he would. If the timber had struck him on the top instead of on the side of the head in all probability he would have been killed on the spot. From ‘Mercury’ dated November 8th 1873. 1873 Rushden Parish Church ‘Church Building Association’ Annual meeting, Peterborough Diocesan Church Building Association 35th Annual Meeting, 8th December 1873 £50 promised to RUSHDEN PARISH CHURCH. From ‘Mercury’ dated December 13th 1873
