Newcastle Courant 2/1/1813 A calf has been taken out of the side of a cow belonging to Mr Wright, of Cleasby, near Darlington, having two heads; one of the heads resembles that of a greyhound, and the other that of a cod fish; one head is at the end of the animal, and the other at the other end. It has a exact calf's tail coming out from the middle of the cod's head, and the four legs resemble a calf's. The cow was some months over her time; but after getting quit of this animal, is doing well. The circumstance is supposed to have been caused by her taking a fright at a greyhound going suddenly into the byre with a cod's head in its mouth!

Illustrated London News 27/1/1844 WHITE SLAVERY.- A circumstance which strikingly illustrates the effect of protracted factory labour on the health occured a day or two ago in Darlington. A female, named Mary Thompson, aged twenty-three years, died suddenly, on her way from the factory of Messrs. Pease and Co., where she had been employed for several years, and latterly from six in the morning till nine at night. It appeared that she was leaving her work, with three other females, when she was heard to give an hysterical laugh, and shortly after she fell to the ground, and, on being lifted up, gave a heavy groan, and immediately expired.
