State of child mining education in Yorkshire and Wales

It cites witnesses describing religious and secular neglect, poor teacher qualifications, and the pernicious influence of pit life, while praising reform efforts by Dissenters and revival through Wesley and Whitfield.

Destructive Fire at Liverpool Foundry Described

A severe blaze at Messrs Fawcett and Preston foundry in Liveretoon, starting in the paint room shortly after midnight, destroyed one third of the premises by morning. Fire-police and water carts battled the flames until water mains could be tapped, as warehouses along Lydia Ann and Gilbert streets burned and roofs collapsed. No lives were lost though workers face long layoffs, and Mayor Rushton and officers aided, with a humorous episode as the mayor helped move goods while a resident mistook him for a bystander.
