Riot and murder trial reports from a late 18th century session
The record recounts a Cow-cross riot and murder case with Colman and Ofland on trial. It covers jury deliberations, law on aiding and abetting, and Baron's remarks on mercy for one defendant while denying it for the other. It also includes naval dispatches from the Batavian fleet actions with Duncan and De Winzee, detailing ships, casualties, and official reactions.
