A trial last week charged Harry James Shaw with writing letters that provoked a duel against Edward Divert of Systock near Exmouth. The jury found him guilty, fining him 20 and committing him to prison for six months. Upon release he must provide securities of 200 and two sureties of 100 each to keep the peace for ten years toward Mr Divett and Majesty's subjects. The will of late Mr Marryate leaves 4,000 per annum and property to his seven sons and three daughters. A separate medical note warns about oxalic acid and epsom salts, and a letter from India discusses Russian advances toward India and Persia. At Dolivstire Sessions, Molly Redfernes and Molly Tombnucan faced an escanite case with a lenient outcome.
