Law and Debtor Execution in Small Debts Case
The case before Mr Justice Patteson held that a servant of the Crown may be subject to execution under the Small Debts Act for debts under £20, not a contempt of court. The judge discharged the defendant, viewing the process as execution rather than contempt. The Leeds and Tower Hamlets dockets follow with libel action and bankruptcy motions, detailing the Northern Star libel case and the Mexborough fiat proceedings.

Wills Relates Dying Mother's Visit and Clerical Confrontation
Captain Wills of Lambeth and his daughter appeared before Mr. Elliott to explain an application for a warrant and a complaint by Rev. Tennison Cull. Wills recounts that Mr. Cuff entered his dying mother’s bedroom uninvited and, while four Roman Catholic daughters prayed with their mother, read from the Bible. The clergyman then questioned if Doctor Doyle was their grandfather, prompting the captain to decline further comment and leave the inference to the reverend, as the matter unfolds.
