This dog run loose in the grounds of the house but barked and is reported to have bitten some postmen. John carried a stick in his role and this according to Mr Hoole made him want to attack him. John had apparently attempted to strike the dog but missed when fearful of being bitten. Many people were brought forward on both sides saying the dog was ferocious and quiet, but the court fined Mr Hoole the full penalty of 5s and costs. John declared he would not go to his house again.11,4 John a shoemaker from Hawksworth Yard High Street opened a bank account with the Sheffield and Hallam Bank in Sheffield also in the High Street for little John his son, aged 2 on Monday 9 May 1859.12 John was listed as the head of the family of on the census of 7 April 1861 in 14 Hanksworth Road, High Street, Sheffield, Yorkshire, England, John was a cordwainer and letter carrier.13 John was listed as head of household in the census of 2 April 1871 at 15 Hawsworth Yard, Sheffield, Yorkshire, England, John was a cordwainer.14 It was reported in the Sheffield and Rotherham Independant newspaper of 4 June 1880 that William was apprehended by PC Meggitt (94) and PC Horne (187) and charged with stabbing his father John at eleven o'clock the previous evening whilst under the influence of liquor, he quarrelled with his father, and, during the dispute stabbed him in the forehead and neck with a three pronged fork, inflictingtwo deep wounds. The weapon was taken by the police. John had his wounds dressed at the Hospital, after which he went to the Town Hall to prefer the charge against his son.
