The French Shadow Panic and British Invasion Fears

Trials and riots in 19th century crime and court actions
Reports from Droitwich show a needle maker Thome Harris committed for trial at Worcestershire assizes for alleged arson on Mr White’s Astwood Bank barn. Other items describe a Leeds to Rugby train fire involving Countess Zetland, militia augmentation rumors, and multiple court judgments on property, copyright, and assault cases across London and Surrey, including a murder verdict against a mother and a Bailey colliery explosion aftermath.
