Omnibuses and wine clash at St Pauls churchyard row
A petition to limit omnibus traffic near St Pauls churchyard during divine service was debated by the city court of aldermen. Officials rejected a blanket closure, noting public thoroughfares must serve all, while a coffee-house owner warned his wine cellars would suffer from the rattle of carriages. The matter was laid on the table. Emigration to New South Wales discussed at George and Vulture tavern with Mr. Marshall arguing bounty system advantages. A London meeting opposed new colonial emigration regulations, seeking suspension and parliamentary action. Also covered were the protection of young females, Greenwich fair rules, city improvements including Blackwall railway, and multiple shipwrecks with crew losses and rescues amid a recent hurricane.
