Trial of Hoddesdon farmer for insult to a Reverend Clergyman
The Hertford jury found the Hoddesdon farmer guilty for grossly abusing a Reverend Clergyman during his office as a Justice of the Peace. The case, before Lord Chief Justice Pratt, warned others to treat magistrates with respect. It also reports local notices of deaths, marriages, horse races at Huntingdon, robberies at the Angel Inn Alnwick, and various shipping movements and prices.
