    Notes:

    By the time he was 18, David Nunn had four convictions for poaching, according to the Bury Prison Register dated 23 Sep 1846.
    The fourth conviction earned him a fine of 20 shillings, costs 13 shillings. It's not clear if the 20 shillings included the costs but either way it was a substantial fine for "an offence against the Game Laws at Chevington".
    We can surmise that he may have been poaching to feed himself and other family members but whatever the truth, it was against the law and he was caught. The record describes David as 5ft 5ins, pale complexion, brown hair, grey eyes, long visage, of good health with clean clothes. He could not read or write.
    Four years later, it was reported in the Bury and Norwich Post on 16 April 1851, p2, in a list of convictions at Chevington that ... David Nunn and Wm. Death, offence against game laws at Chevington; 2 months.
    So, he spent time in jail for his misdeamours as well.

    Notes:

    My take on Napoleon's life: https://oznunns.com.au/napoleon-nunn/

    The following letters were written in response to the accidental death of BK1257 Alfred Nunn, son of Abraham Nunn.
    The Napoleon Nunn mentioned was the base child of a Naomi Nunn, daughter of John Nunn and Sarah (Sally) Silverstone. There is no relationship yet established between the two Nunn boys although a family connection seems highly likely.

    This letter published in the Bury and Norwich Post, and East Anglian, November 29, 1843, was in response to one published earlier regarding Alfred Nunn's accidental death.

    Alleged ignorance at Chevington and Whepstead.
    To the editor.
    Sir, - Will you oblige me by inserting in your next paper the following statement, which I trust will be found a sufficient answer to the letter of "One of the Jury," on the inquest upon the body of Alfred Nunn, appearing in your last.
    Napoleon Nunn, who occasioned the death of Alfred, is not a son of poor parents; he has been brought up by his grandfather, until lately an occupier of a farm of above hundred acres in Chevington, and never was an object for admission into a Charity School.
    Abraham, the father of Alfred, has had seven children, of whom six have been taught to read, and received religious instruction in my schools; the remaining one is afflicted and incapable of learning.
    All poor parents in the parish have the opportunity offered them of placing their children, at the age of seven, in the day-school, where they may remain at least three years, and be thence transferred to the Sunday School, where they are allowed to continue till the age of fifteen, or more: the object of the Sunday School being chiefly religious instruction; and, although the parents are often compelled to put their boys to work at a very early age, and, I grieve more to say, that there are some that neglect or refuse to send their children to school, who consequently grow up ignorant and vicious; yet, I believe that the number taught, about sixty, is quite equal in proportion to that prevailing in other places; the schools are supported by me and members of my family, without assistance from any endowment or Society.
    The other two boys, Henry and Arthur Wittam, who were examined on the inquest, aged thirteen and ten, live in Whepstead, and belong to the Sunday School there; but being at a great distance from the church, and often necessarily employed on the Sunday in the care of stock, &c., their attendance has been very irregular, and they have but little knowledge of their catechisms; the eldest, however, can read the Testament decently, and has a distinct knowledge of retribution hereafter; and stated that his parents always instructed him so.
    It cannot, therefore, be said, that these boys "have not the remote idea of a future state."
    Your obedient servant, John White, Chevington Rectory, Nov.24, 1843.


    The offending letter follows: Bury and Norwich Post 22 November 1843
    Ignorance of the peasantry. To the Editor.
    Sir, - You will no doubt report in your columns of this week the result of an inquest held at the Suffolk Hospital on Wednesday last. The facts are simply these: that one boy carelessly caused the death of another boy by a gun-shot wound.
    But the grave and important question is the worse than gothic ignorance in which the rustic population of Whepstead and Chevington appear to exist.
    The coroner in his charge was justifiably severe in describing the absence of all moral instruction, were removed but by a slight degree from the position of a savage state.
    One lad, the principal in the accident, acknowledged that he did not know the Lord's Prayer; that he had no knowledge of the name of the clergyman of the parish, and, in fact, that he knew nothing of responsibility with respect to good or evil.
    The two other lads stated they belonged to the Sunday School; they knew the Lord's Prayer, but had not the most remote idea of a future state.
    And is this the education of the people, for which so much money is paid?
    If it is, look at the result; one harmless lad is hurried into eternity, and the innocent cause of it. untutored and uninstructed, knows nothing of the responsibility of hastening his companion to another world.
    But are the clergy, the paid educators of the people, wholly blameless? Was the rector or curate of these villages wholly ignorant of the existence of these boys, or were they negligent in endeavouring to lead their minds and cultivate them to the pursuit of virtue, or leaving them in reckless idleness to tread the path of infamy and crime?
    Sir, we frequently marvel at the spread of crime in the rural districts, at incendiarism, and acts of violence; but when we see the germ of human intellect thus untutored, neglected, and even crushed, - can we wonder that the mind, thus brutalized, its energies cramped and contracted, should in the moment of supposed or real injuries rush to the perpetration of wild and savage revenge?
    Yet when any plan of educating the people is proposed, it is generally met with all the fury of orthodox resentment?
    Take this instance of proof of the careful teaching of the rustic population, and it there is a feeling of moral reflection amongst your readers, they will in unison with me blush to think, that within a range of six miles from a town like Bury, with a church in the village, and, I dare say, a tolerable benefice, that human beings should be found, whose ignorance, as far as Christianity and morality are concerned, would disgrace the savages of the wild, or the Hindoo worshippers in India.
    Yours respectfully, One of the Jury.
    [We insert this letter for the lamentable facts which it relates, but not admitting the justice of all its inferences. Unless a minister had the power of compelling the people to come, and send their children to be instructed, there may be instances of such ignorance as is here described, in spite of all the efforts of the most faithful pastor. - ED.]

    Notes:

    Based on following report, Azariah did not want defendants to be harshly treated:
    Bury Free Press 14 August 1869, p5
    STEALING STRAW AT HAWSTEAD.- Lucy Bumpstead and Sarah Holden, married women, Hawstead, were charged with stealing a quantity of straw.
    Azariah Prewer, farmer, Whepstead, deposed that last Monday night he had some straw on his father's farm, at Hawstead, and having had some suspicion he secreted himself about nine o'clock near the stack, and saw the two defendants take some straw off the strack; Mrs Bumpstead tied some up in a mantle, and Mrs Holden was about to do the same; there was one pound a half or two points of straw in the mantle; the stack was in a field adjoining the road at Melling Green; the defendants both asked him to forgive them, but as he had several times had straw stolen he thought he must summon them as an example; he did not however wish to be severe upoon them, as they had families.
    The defendants said they had only taken a little straw to light their fires.
    The Bench retired to consider the case, and after a long absence, they returned into court, and the Clerk asked the prisoners if they consented to have the case tried at once or preferred to have it sent to the Quarter Sessions.
    They chose to have it settled at once, and pleaded guilty.
    The Chairman said Mr Prewer was quite justified in bringing the case forward, but as he had said he wished them to be treated leniently, the Bench would pass what might seems to be, but what was really not, a light sentence.
    They could be called up to receive the judgment of the Court at some future time if they offended again in any way.
    This conviction would be recorded against them, and if ever they come up again they would be liable to penal servitude.
    He hoped this would be a caution to others not to commit such offences as this, of which there were unfortunately too many complaints.
