From the Maidstone Journal, 5 February 1805.
Saturday an inquisition was taken at the "Hope" public house, Deptford, on the
body of Mr. Isaac Woodby, who was found dead on the Lewisham Road, on Thursday
night.
The deceased, who was captain of the brig Endeavour, left Deptford on horseback
at dusk on Thursday evening, and at 8 o'clock he was found dead, in the middle
of the road, in a mangled state, by a person named Lucas.
The horse, with his offside dirty, and the bridal reigns broken, was discovered
in a paddock at Lewisham the next morning.
From these and other circumstances, it was evident that the horse had fallen on
the deceased, and that he had received several kicks by the plunging of the
animal.
Verdict, Accidental Death.
