Bristol Gossip and London Market Notices 1723
A Bristol report notes a Devon noblewoman, residing there, who fled her house while the family was away, leapt into the river in a fit of lunacy, and was saved by a waterman. The same item mentions a highway robbery conviction at Newgate, South Sea stock figures, and a dense sequence of auction notices, sales, and advertisements for books, medicines, and goods with numerous names and locales.
