Discharge of Rev W Davies amid Newport chartist fallout
The Morning Post reports the Marquis of Nicanachy ordered the release from custody of the dissenting minister Rev W Davies of Canterbury. Davies faced charges of harbouring his nephew implicated in treason, but he appeared to enter into recognizances to answer any treason charges. The case drew criticism of the magistrates and praise for Davies, described as a mild, peaceful clergyman unjustly entangled by family ties and political unrest.
