Inquest Mary Keetch, (Essex Chronicle 7th May 1852). Essex Record Office, Chelmsford.
"On Friday, an adjourned inquest was held at the Blue
Boar inn, Stratford, before C.C.Lewis,Esq. on the body of Mary
Keech, (better known as Mary Catch), aged 33. The inquest was
adjourned from the previous day in order to allow a post mortem
examination of the body. It was supposed deceased had met her
death under circumstances of an aggravated character - It appeared
that a person named Nebborn, who lived near deceased,
was called in by her children, and he found her in bed, and quite
dead; he raised an alarm, and a medical gentleman attended, and
found death had taken place several hours previous. - Evidence
was also adduced to show deceased was jealous of her husband,
whom she supposed was on terms of improper intimacy with
another female in the neighbourhood, and it also appeared that
she and her husband frequently quarrelled, - and even so late as
on the Monday previous, when he left home and did not return
till after his wife's death. - Mr Kennedy, surgeon, of Stratford
deposed to making a post mortem examination, when he found
the lungs in a diseased state, and no doubt death ensued from
that cause, although excitement might have hastened the event.
Keech had been seen to slap his wife's face, but no evidence was
adduced to show that death ensued from the treatment she re?
ceived from his hands. The coroner summed up the evidence,
and the jury found that "Death ensued from natural causes".
The coroner, at the request of the jury, had James Keech called
in, and gave him a severe reprimand, which he appeared to treat
with perfect indifference."

Colchester Town Hall, 5 March [1855]
James Webster Keetch, a stoker on the Norfolk branch of the Eastern Counties’ Railway, was brought up for leaving his children chargeable to the Colchester Union. - Mr ABELL supported the complaint. – It appeared that defendant had been absent from Colchester since October, during which time his three children had been under the keeping of a woman named Scaborn, at the Mariners’ Arms; but she becoming tired of her trust forwarded them to their father at London, who, however, immediately returned them, and they have since the 19thof February been in the union. – Defendant said he had sent £6. 10 for their maintenance since October, and if Seaborn, instead of putting them in the union, had given him notice that she was tired of keeping them he would have made other provision for them. – THE BENCH thought the children being sent to him at London was a sufficient proof that she wished to give up her charge. – Defendant was ultimately released upon the understanding that he would take his children away with him and not allow them to become chargeable again.

My Dear Sister Sarah,
I now sit down to write these few lines to you hoping
you are in good health as I am very proud to be able to tell you
that myself, wife and little son Harry are in perfect good health at
present. I was quite surprised when I received your letter as it
was some years past since I heard from you before. I wrote letters
to my father and to Polly when I first came into this country and
neither of them has answered my letters - I know they received them
because you spoke of the Sodawater machine in your letter. When
you see any of them, you can tell them that they might just find
one hour over a sheet of note to us, so that we may know if they
are living or not. I must tell you that Liz has been very ill,
she was in hospital for a very long time, and I never expected
that she would come out alive - but praise be to God she did get
out all right - she gave birth of a daughter on the 14th of last
January - it was such a sweet pretty little thing - but I am sorry
to say that she only lived 7 weeks - her name was "Mabel
Lucretia" - I’ve only just arrived at Ranikhet from Ferozipore -
We are sent up here for the good of our health - its a funny
looking place - on the top of mountains - its nearly like England
as regards the weather - we can sit at our door and see the snow
mountains about 30 miles away - plenty of wild bears prowling
about our doors at night looking for food - the other night I
was sitting smoking my pipe at the door, when a Jackall
came and put his nose into my door. Some nights I cant get
to sleep for the howling of them through the night.
Dear sister the first time you see John Gurr you
can tell him I will send him a few lines, as you have sent
me his address and I know where to write to him. I suppose
he has got a large family by this time -let me think - he
had two alive when I last saw him in 1872 - and I think
I heard from some one that they had got another before I left
Ireland to come out to India - I have buried two since I was
at home among you - my first (Little Alfred) in the Curragh
Camp in 1873 -and the little girl in Ferozepore this year -
and I have my second little boy (Henry James Webster) still
alive, he was 3 years old on the 21st of January last - please
give our kind love to father and mother when you see them, and
dont forget to send me their address so that I may send them
a few lines. Also give our love to my sister Polly and John
and we hope that all their little ones are well, and hope that
John is doing well - and remember us to all who inquire
after us - and above all I want for you to try and find out
(if you can) where Lizes sister Sarah is, for she would very
much like to hear from her - so some day you get out just
see what you can do finding out her address. If all
goes well, and we are spared to live so long - we shall
be home in England again in 5 years time - you will see
me then with a Good Conduct medal on my breast and 4 good
conduct stripes on my arm - I must now come to a close
Old Maid for this time hoping you are still in good health.
Oh! before I forget - give my kind love to Mrs Woodhouse
and if you dont mind you can send me her address.
So now I will conclude by asking of you to write as
soon as you can about everybody.
Once more good bye for the present
From your ever affectionate brother and sister
