So who was kicked to death by a horse then?

Well, Alfred Trafford was kicked to death by a horse, aged 19, on the family farm. He was the brother of Harry Lewis's sister in law!

Alf / Harry

Not a lot of difference.

Not a great age for a horse, all things considered.

[Olde Crone]

No Uncle John, if the horse had been 19 I would have written

kicked to death by a horse aged 19

If you're being that picky, "Well, Alfred Trafford aged 19 was kicked ......" says what I think you thought you meant to say.

And I thought I was pedantic!

You'd know the true meaning of pedantry if you met my late f-i-l. He was also a professional eccentric. He could go into a shop a year after his first visit and say "You do remember me, don't you?". And nine times out of ten they did.

Aaaah! Eccentricity...
