Dreadful explosion on the South Eastern Railway at Roundowno Cliff

A disastrous blast at Roundowno Cliff on the South Eastern line near Dover killed eleven men and seriously injured several others. Workers opened a cave used to store gunpowder after a heavy rain, triggering a violent explosion that hurled bodies across the cliff and sea. An inquest held in Dover heard harrowing testimony from boatmen and laborers, with further proceedings planned.

Law case at Queen's Bench and Common Pleas in 1840s Kent

The trial in nisi prius before the Lord Chief Justice and jury centers on Wepxxspar Mogter v Lade. Evors’s executor sues for 7000 pounds claiming notes given by the dying Mr. Evors to Lade as a gift, later asserted as a deposit converted to a gift to bypass a will. Eyewitness Angelina Wildash testifies to the transfer and secrecy, while authorities outline the theory that the notes were deposited to secure Lade’s inheritance. The jury returns for the defendant. The Common Pleas then considers registration appeal cases about rent values for voters and lease payments under deeds dated 1845, upholding revising barristers’ decisions on clear yearly value and six-month possession rules.
