A London Evening Post reader notes a Babylonian tale about Korah and Aaron tied to a Rheims tythe case. It recounts Aaron seizing a widow’s wool and later a lamb and right shoulder, provoking Korah’s anger and a call to resist oppressive tythe laws. The fragment ends with Aaron taking the lamb’s right shoulder.
The General Post Office notes that the Portshoy mail from Huntingdon to Chatteris was attacked and robbed between St Ives and Sumnerfoam Heath, around ten o'clock Friday night, with letters from Chatteris, Lyra Wilbirn, and more. A description is given of the robber, height six to seven inches, a large patched coat, and rough face. A reward of fifty pounds is offered for apprehension and conviction, plus a pardon upon conviction for the recognisable robber, as per January 1770 advertisement.
