Police Reports From Mansion House And Guildhall Courts
A crowded crime round up features John Sullivan before the lord mayor as a beggar in rumors of a woman in men's clothes, 14 days' imprisonment. At Guildhall, Mrs Dina Beakfield and John Glover face smuggling charges over cigars valued at £30, with Glover claiming misrouted hampers and Mrs Beakfield released on bail. Additional cases include a paint-throwing incident, a baby death linked to alleged violence, a park attack by a cavalryman, a domestic stabbing in Graham's buildings, a drunkenness and harassment charge, and a shoplifting ring involving two women, plus an excise dispute over medicinal spirits. The proceedings show multiple remands, fines, and commitments as magistrates handle a wide array of offenses.

Desperate poison attempt by a deserted ward at Walworth
A woman, aided by a jailor, was brought to the bar on a charge of attempting suicide by laudanum poisoning in Walworth. She had purchased a large quantity of laudanum, had previously tried to poison herself, and was sent to Guy's Hospital after an emetic and surgeon's intervention. Her master, a tradesman and guardian to the orphan, stated he had protected her for twelve years. A young man she trusted had deserted her, leading to the rash act. She claimed life would be worth living if supported, and Cottingham promised to answer for her care if released.
