Ruling on Thames Street Loss of Public Highway Title
Opinion by Rathbone Gardner concludes Thames street ceased to be a public roadway after 1862 due to encroaching sea and town vote declaring it useless. Abutting owners have maintained possession for decades, with the land now held as private property despite initial 1400 deed dedication to public use. The Bristol town council’s 1862 action is upheld as sufficient to vest title in the landowners, preventing reversion to public highway status. Also notes Baptist Young People’s Union excursion to Bristol aboard the Bay Queen with events in Bristol.

The Face Of Forty And Inner Nobleness
A quotation from Rev W C Gannet argues that true beauty grows from lifelong nobleness and inner grace rather than fleeting charm. It claims forty years of ripe character reveal themselves in a pleasant smile calm eyes and rested lips and that outward appearance often masks or reveals inner truth in quick facial expressions.
