Ship registered by Charleston owner faces inquiry in court
Proceedings detail a Liverpool grounded American liner later registered in Robertson’s name to dodge Navigation Laws. Sharp and Taylor secured a bottomry bond, then battles over ownership, sale cancellations, and an inquiry yet to be directed on the vessel’s fate after its New York attachment and subsequent auction.

Central Criminal Court case at Mowpat trial day
In a crowded Central Criminal Court session the Lord Mayor, recorder, sheriffs and under sheriffs presided with about 220 prisoners awaiting trial. A case against Mary Ann Brooks, 22, for stealing a knife and linen failed for lack of evidence and she was found Not Guilty. A second indictment accusing her of stealing a cap and linen also arose with dramatic testimony from Henry Player, a flamboyant witness and former prisoner, whose credulity and mockery overshadowed the proceedings.
