On Monday 11th January 1875, the body of Riley Aspinall, deceased, was on view at the house of John Wilson of the New Delight Inn, Warley.

Sarah Ann, the wife of William Aspinall of Lumb, Warley, stone quarrier, says deceased was 4 years old and my son.

Last Friday afternoon, at about 5 o'clock, he was playing in Lumb Lane, a highway at the end of our house with his brother Job. Hearing Job cry, I went to the door and saw the deceased holding on by his hands at a new hole in the middle of the highway. Before I got to him, he was taken away by the force of the water and out of sight.

Henry Cockroft, a quarrier, came and went down the hole but returned on account of the water. He afterwards went in at the end of the watercourse next Lumb Mill Dam and brought the deceased's body out about an hour after he fell in.

The watercourse is in a goit which runs under the road and under a field to Lumb Mill. The hole was about 3 feet long and 20 inches wide. It had been covered by a flagstone about 9 inches thick which had broken in the middle. The said William Aspinall says I have known the highway for at least 20 years and had regularly gone over the goit but I have never noticed anything unsafe. Last Friday, I got home at about a quarter past 5 o'clock and saw the hole.

The cloughs had then been put down and the water nearly stopped from going down the goit.

Verdict – Accidentally Drowned
