Indictment Over Riding Violence in Hyde Park
The case against Thomas Buck Esq centers on riding with violence that injured John Stubbs a poor journeyman barber. The incident occurred in Hyde Park as Buck rode from Kensington toward London on a Sunday in April last. Stubbs spent a month in Middlesex Hospital and pursued compensation from Buck, who offered to pay only if the money went to his pocket, not the lawyer’s. The proceedings hinge on whether the injury was wilful or accidental and whether malice aforethought can be shown.
