Trial et bar over Baron de Bode claims in government dispute
In the Queen's Bench a novel trial et bar examined the Baron de Bode's property dispute against the government. A special verdict from two years ago valued the property at over £300,000 with interest. The crown traversed the return and witnesses were heard before the adjournment. Also, a fire at Mayence destroyed the Hotel du Rhin, endangering 160 guests who fled naked, with many valuables lost. An English traveler lost banknotes and was left in a state of idiocy.
