<br />
* Ned Hunter was a stable boy on night duty at King's Pyland on the night of the murder of [[John Straker]] and the disappearance of [[Silver Blaze]] ([[SILV]] {{refcanon|SILV|62}}).<br />
<br />
* [[Edith Baxter]] brought him his supper around 9 p.m. ([[SILV]] {{refcanon|SILV|63}}).<br />
<br />
* [[Fitzroy Simpson]] appeared, tried to bribe him for information, and is believed to have slipped powdered opium into the food (curried mutton) ([[SILV]] {{refcanon|SILV|120}}).<br />
<br />
* Hunter ate the meal, became drugged into a "state of absolute stupor," and slept through the events of the night ([[SILV]] {{refcanon|SILV|110}}).<br />
