It wouldn't stand up in court...

Theres a story which I read about....... Its the 19th century, and this rather drunk farmer and his cart were wending their way up the hill to Northstoke and as he travelled along the lane he hit the rather large stone at the crossroads. Who do you think was charged? the farmer being drunk in charge of a cart, no it was the stone, which was found guilty and was summarily executed... true story, I read it in Bath library..
