Dark Robbery and Fatality Near Newington Inn
An elderly man aged about 40 years died after drinking at the Weavers Arms in Newington where he ordered two pints of beer and collapsed. Earlier that night two highwaymen attacked Mr Jackson and his wife near Rosemary Branch, robbing them of a silver watch and three pounds in money before escaping. The corpse wore a silver watch fob and had ten shillings and some halfpence in his pocket.
