Rainbow Racer and the Bedlam Escape Tale
A lively anecdote tells of a tall man in a flannel waistcoat escaping from his keeper in Bedlam and being guided by milk-men to his Clifford's Inn chambers. The men were rewarded as he agreed to run the race again. The article also notes a stalled Anglo Dutch treaty, Russian expansion, and various London happenings from court ballots to a fire at St. George's church during an engine trial.
