Retirement of Viscount Enfield as Secretary of the Board of Control
The Viscount Enfield retires from the Secretaryship of the Board of Control. George Cornewall Lewis, MP for Herefordshire, succeeds him. Mr. Merivale becomes Assistant Under Secretary of State for the Colonies, replacing Mr. Stephen. Dr. Riddell, Bishop of the northern district, dies of typhus fever in Newcastle upon Tyne. A lunacy commission order allows Mr. Dyce Sombre full use of his income, with £4,000 yearly to Mrs. Dyce Sombre. An insolvent case before Commissioner Law reveals a romantic tale of debt and failed support, with adjournment to produce key witnesses.
