Monstrous Ape like Creature Appears on Roadside Rock
An odd animal, larva sized like a frog and biting ape like, watched as it sat on its rear and bent its left knee. It stretched its left arm and right hand to stroke its ears and thigh, then leaped from its enclosure and trotted across the road. The find prompts debate on its nature and the history of animals in marble or timber. A Kent hive warmed at a tradesman’s home, unknown before this month. A row at the Rose and Crown ends in rioting, injuries, and arrests, with a man reportedly losing a hand. Elsewhere, robbers stole five sheets and linens from Mr Fullips’s Gerrard Street home during supper.
