Quarrel Leads to Fatal Street Violence in St Honore
A night in Paris ends with five young men dead or wounded after a tavern quarrel near St Honore, and two well-dressed strangers slain in Boulogne woods. A servant who killed his master at an inn is seized at Metz along with a 1000 to 1200 livre bill of exchange. In London, clergy, racing results, and court actions fill pages, including a Prorogation and a murder verdict.
