Escape of a Condemned Prisoner and War News from Edinburgh
Reports from Carliffe state Mr. Hay one of the condemned prisoners escaped late Saturday night after withdrawing a demurr to the Union jurisdiction. Military orders show Britain’s armies sized at over 66 thousand infantry and 22 thousand foot, with various independent, invalid, and Irish contingents. News notes the burial of Lady Colchester’s corps, a marriage treaty, a new Provost appointment, and other official moves alongside stock quotations and commercial adverts.
