Literary Chronicle: Tae Stace Coach in 3 Volumes
John Mills presents three volume fiction on coaches and coachmen once celebrated on stage. The reviewer praises the inimitable raciness and conventional truth, noting some slang but praising the season’s most interesting work. An extracted chapter details melancholy results connected to the era.

A Visit to a Madhouse Witnessed Despair and Nimble Fate
A narrator explores a grim asylum with locked doors and watchful keepers. A commended soldier wards, a duke visits a demented veteran, a mother endures a grim choice as a child is deprived of her curls and life, and other torments unfold among the ruined minds within. The tale shifts to a gamester’s ruin as nurses and doctors stage a stark scene of loss and surrender.
