Research Notes
- In December 1892, Albert appeared as a witness at the inquest into the suicide of ironmonger Hugh Priddy (aged 29), who had hung himself in the cellar of his house. Upon finding his body, his wife Clara ran to the house of Albert and Ada Kipping, telling them that "My Hugh has hung himself in the cellar." Albert told the inquest, "I hadn't the nerve [to go into the cellar]. The house was empty and it was a dark cellar." The coroner admonished Albert, telling him that he might have been able to save Hugh if he was still alive. Albert instead fetched a policeman, P.C. Charles Clark, who cut the body down and unsuccessfully attempted artificial respiration. The jury returned a verdict of "temporary insanity" and commended P.C. Clark for his actions. For details, see Chelmsford Chronicle (16/Dec/1892) and Essex Newsman (17/Dec/1892).
