Choleric outbreak and daring thefts in English towns
A Cologne Gazette note reports a cholera outbreak near Slopes, a village about 15 leagues away, while Baron de Graetz, Archbishop of Graetz, was condemned by an Austrian commission to fifteen days in prison and a 500 florin fine. Separately, two mail theft attempts near Worcester and Bedstock were foiled, with descriptions issued. A coroner in Ludgate Hill heard evidence of a mother, Jane Bayliss, murdering her newborn by placing it up a chimney, after which a verdict of wilful murder was returned. A massive fire at Barntash Farm near Lee Kent destroyed multiple structures, with incendiary suspicion and ongoing flames across several villages.
