Empire founded by a spider and a last dying confession
A curious column blends legend of Mahomet and his empire begun by a spider with a discussion of Eugene Aram’s execution in 1759. The piece notes a printed pamphlet hawked in the streets and mocks the authenticity of the dying words while detailing a woodcut of Tyburn’s crowd and gallows. The text also shifts to social curiosities, from gluttony tales in Kentucky to a Punch column on lottery and art, with notes on water power, women’s charity, and early design theory.

Abolition of Montem at Eton Foreseen by Officials in 1847
The Provo st Dr Hawtrey and Lower Master Okes with assistants foresee the probable end of the Montem festival at Eton in May 1847 due to railway crowds and disrupted study. Officials deem the ancient ceremony an impediment to education and favor its abolition though lamenting the loss of a picturesque spectacle. Meanwhile Christopher Walker, Waterloo Bridge collector, was captured in Chelmsford after absconding with £25, admitting he spent most of it and leaving London with £15. He was sent to London for further examination.
