Bruising Town Notices and Royal Appointments

It reports a dispensation allowing Gregory Syndersome to hold the Rectory of Symondsbury and the Restory of Askerwell worth 400l per year. Other items include a found naked infant named Noah, a stabbing near Well-Close-Square, a man found dead in Windsor Forest, and royal promotions in various regiments plus stock prices from the London Gazette.
