Licensee Red lion Hotel 1893 -W Paxton
R&H 27 jan 1893
"Thursday evening as Mr W. Paxton, landlord of the Red Lion Hotel Heanor, was returning from Smalley in a trap, the horse shied and plunged into the kerbstone, overturning the trap. Mr Paxton, who is a heavy man, fell onto the road and the horse dashed up Thorpe's Road at a high speed, but was quickly stopped by Mr John Holmes Junior. Mr Paxton was picked up insensible and carried into an adjoining house. He was suffering from cuts on the head and face. Mr Holmes, who is a member of the Heanor Ambulance Class bathed and dresses the wounds and the sufferer was removed to his home in Derby road, where he is progressing favourably. The horse was not injured, but the trap was smashed."
