Sporting Intelligence shows betting moves on Attila and Chatham
In a brisk betting slate this afternoon the list of favourites shifted with Attila dropping from 7 to 9 to 1 and Chatham moving to 22 to 1. Other notable changes included Wiseacre and Auckland drifting, while Derux and the Dirce colt drew strong action. Oaks action centered on Lord Exeter's filly out of Zmina at 24 and 20 to 1, with updated prices across many horses and numerous bets recorded as the odds moved. A foot race at Kuutsford drew £25 aside, with Robinson prevailing over Fowler by a narrow margin amid questions of legitimacy.

Curious duel quarrel summary in old papers
The article abridges a chaotic correspondence among Peter Borthwick James Peardley John Robertson and others over a clash with Sir William Wraxall and Mr Symons. It traces miscommunications at Bow Street Parthenon club and Chester Terrace with rival claims to fight and seconding, ending with multiple parties wanting duels but none agreeing to one. The piece mocks the melee and proposes a hexagonal duel as a solution.

Assizes at St Albans Open with Manslaughter Case Attracting Interest
The Hertfordshire assizes opened with about twenty prisoners for trial. A main case involves a co defendant pig jobber charged with manslaughter after allegedly treating a tradesman’s wife for cancer, leading to her death under dubious circumstances. The Queen v Webster case connected to the St Albans election and Earl Listowel’s return is expected to take time. Baron Alcockson and Baron Gurney preside. A witness in the grand jury process refused to swear, prompting committal. Jabez Rambone alias Kirk, 18, a soldier, was indicted for cutting and wounding Jane Pearse with intent to murder after a night at a St Albans pub. Evidence shows Rambone and Pearse, a woman of loose character, cohabited. Rambone admitted the act upon questioning.
