Admiralty Rejects Inquiry into Gambier and Rumble Papers
The Lords deflect calls for a House of Commons inquiry, stating that papers on Gambier and Rumble show the service was largely free of dishonesty though corruption existed in parts of the department. They warn such an inquiry would hinder justice and affirm the department’s general integrity. The Norwich Election Commission sat to begin evidence gathering on bribery claims and voter corruption with various testimonies and ongoing inquiries in Bridgwater and Beverley. A Hindoo student in Edinburgh and London gains public support after failing the April exam, with a Mumbai-like aid from Britons, while a Scotsman notes the fate of art and books in commerce and storage.
