Singular Discovery at Westminster Bridewell
A female prisoner dressed as a man was held in Westminster Bridewell after being discovered among male inmates. Governor Tracy and officers unmasked her, revealing she is about eighteen with delicate features, who had lived in Sussex with relatives and endured prior disguises and confinement. She admitted using the name George White and described an extensive pretrial journey from Chichester to London, with workhouse and Mendicity Society labor while passing as male. The case prompts inquiries into her Sussex connections.
