Rumor of French flour trade sparks market upheaval and unrest

The piece notes exports of corn and malt liquors under William and Mary and later. It describes a price spike at Wrexham market for wheaties and related grains due to rumors of supplying France, heavy rains, and speculator activity. Disturbances followed, with colliers and miners seizing grain shipments, burning boats bound for Chester, and moving barley to storage. An express summoned the 34th regiment to Wrexham under Major the Earl of Burford. The narrative then shifts to various court and public notices, including trials for murder, theft, rape, and a coach accident case in Gloucester, plus several marriages and obituaries.
