Court clears accuser in old bribery case and assigns new clerks
The court dismissed the bribery accusation after finding key affidavit parts false and could not mark the accuser. It then appointed Nath Collyer keeper of Guild Hall, with clerks Giddings Sawtell Harris succeeding posts along the Bristol Chester and Kent Roads. Also noted were obituaries, trials at Old Bailey, and naval and foreign affairs updates from Paris and Stockholm.
