Lines From An Act Concerning Appeals and Public Order
A fragmentary legal and political notice discusses suspension of judgment on appeal upon recognizance with sureties, costs, and double damages. It references existing acts, peace officers, and tendered amends, urging impartial enforcement and caution in restraining workers and public gaming. It then shifts to commentary on governance, liberty, and Parliament, urging vigilance by Londoners amid suspected colonial and military concerns. Newark racing results follow, listing horses and winnings from recent heats and sweeps with owner names and horse names.
