James Tomkinson
MP for Crewe 1900‑1910
Tomkinson died following a fall during a horse race in which fellow MPs participated. The following account appeared in The Times of India on 30 April 1910:-
Mr. Tomkinson, although in his 70th year, was a regular follower of the hounds, and had taken great interest in the revival, after a few years' discontinuance, of the House of Commons race as one of the events of the Bar and Parliamentary Point-to-Point Races which were held at Epping under the auspices of the Pegasus Club. He was one of 14 starters in the race, and was leading on a fine chestnut mare, May Day, which he had bred himself, when, approaching a fence about half a mile from the finish, the mare took off badly and brought her rider down. He fell on his head, and was unconscious when several spectators arrived to render assistance. He was at once taken to a neighbouring farmhouse, and medical assistance was obtained from Epping and London. It was found that the spine had been fractured high up in the neck, and total paralysis followed. Mr. Tomkinson's son and daughter, who had been present, remained with him till the end, which occurred in the forenoon of the following day.
At the inquest the principal witness was Sir W. Grantham, who said he was one of the judges of the race, and as the House of Commons race was run in conjunction with the Bar point-to-point races he thought it his duty, on behalf of the Judges and the Bar, to attend the inquest and show their sympathy and regret. He watched the whole race as far as he could, in conjunction with the Speaker. Mr. Tomkinson on starting was cheered by the people for his luck in riding at his age. He appeared to be very much gratified at his reception, and looked very well. When the accident occurred his horse apparently pecked or breasted the fence. It seemed to the witness that just before taking the fence Mr. Tomkinson turned from the line he had been taking, and swerved, so that his horse did not go straight over the fence, but partly askew. The horse's hind legs got caught, and it fell on landing, throwing Mr. Tomkinson forward on to his head. From the appearance of the body he should say that the hunting-cap, which was a dangerous thing to wear, had something to do with the death. He thought Mr. Tomkinson fell on the hard brim of the cap, which was driven against his head. He considered the course was a fair one and the fence quite a usual one. One could hardly hunt anywhere without finding such a course as that. The ditch on the taking-off side appeared hardly wide enough. It was very narrow and the danger sometimes was that horses did not take enough trouble.
