Highway Robberies and Attacks Across Town and Road
Reports detail robberies by multiple men under cover of night injuring and stealing from coach passengers near Hempstead and Grab Tree Orchard. Authorities note several arrests in Covent Garden while broader schemes target travelers on the Oxford Road and at Hyde Park. In foreign news, Paris and Brussels dispatches discuss Dutch Austrian border limits, potential shifts after Utrecht treaty, and tensions with France as global powers weigh responses.

Carved Alabaster Representation Found at Long Sutton Parish Church
A late January report notes a finely carved alabaster representation of seven Roman Sacraments and multiple figures, four feet tall, mounted in Long Sutton Parish Church. The piece, owned by Mr Thomas Hanbury, is attracting daily curiosity as many visit to view it, and it may be sold as the owner tires of the effort.
