Burglary, ship news, and local incidents across London
Reports detail a customs seizure at Phin Kent, where 250 lb of tea remained after goods were looted, plus a Salisbury to London mail rider found hanged. Observed deaths include Elizabeth Hudson in St James's Park and a well-dressed woman near Shoreditch Church. Robberies ooze through Clare Market and Wapping, with two Gentlemen robbed in Poultry by night, and copper signs stolen near Hermitage.
