Devastation from Thames flood disrupts London docks and riverside

Last Sunday at five, strong winds and the Thames overflow caused ships to break from moorings near Rotherhithe. The Notting ham bound for Boston suffered damage after colliding with a Bremen ship. A waterman crushed, a cellar resident saved, and two children perished amid flooded streets from Greenland-dock to Putney. Reports of robberies and several deaths followed, with extensive stock and shipping losses estimated.
