Grim 18th century notices mix crime and church news
Ipswich reports murder and suicide tales, a chimney rescuer finds a lost suitor, a maid dies by her own hand after marriage tensions, a Norfolk vice chancellor vacancy, and local drownings. Port news from Deal and Gravesend lists ships and arrivals. Royal travels and Cumberland funeral observe mourning across London.

Postscript to the London Evening-Post on fire water plans
A letter urges Insurance Offices to unite for a city water reservoir in Upper Moorfields funded by a two acre site and water mains from the New River. It proposes a network with plugs in streets from Cornhill to Aldgate and Newgate to flood all lanes, especially on the South side, to curb future fires.
