Roguery law and rogue keepers at Southwark prison
A report records the Master-Keeper of a Southwark prison summoned by Excise over retailing spirituous liquors inside the gaol. An under turnkey allegedly profited but was deemed a servant, convicting the master under the roof statute. It also notes a dogged accident befalling Mr. Hands, a coachman to the Duke of Bedford, plus the recovery of two stolen horses at Norwood tied to a clergy robbery and highwaymen. High water at London Bridge follows.
