Prisoner under arrest for theft and property crimes in Southwark
Last Friday William Summer was committed to the New Gaol, Southwark, by Wot Cor, for stealing a ligature and other items from Mr D oiley Stephens. A large seizure of tea and brandy was brought to the Custom House, three Thames dock officials detained at Clapham, and at Lovicon Bridge a barge sank with the ferryman drowning. Admiralty reports detail a Royal Navy cruise near the Canary Islands and Santa Cruz with heavy action and limited damage. London weather notes, market prices, and security figures follow.
