  At midnight, on Wednesday 15th October 1873, Joseph Simpson absconded, taking "£600 in notes and a considerable sum in gold". His numerous creditors were "left in the lurch".
Simpson travelled to Manchester. On Sunday 19th October the police discovered Mrs. Simpson in Salford. Without any resort to indecency, she was ordered to remove her stays, where £60 in notes were artfully concealed. Mr. Simpson was found hiding in a cottage in an extreme suburb of Manchester, but only had £10 in his possession. It was discovered that he had deposited £570 in a bank and left the bank-book, wrapped up in a parcel, at a Salford beer-shop.
Mr. Simpson was returned to Terrington on 18th October, along with the money; he settled his debts. In consequence, proceedings for fraud and bankruptcy were dropped and he was allowed to return to Manchester that evening.
 

Ceased trading 2nd May 1967.

Officially reported closed 4th May 1967.
