Elizabeth Groatley, a middle aged visitor in Quaker style, faced a bar trial for taking money by falsely claiming to be an authorised collector for the Sailors' Female Orphan Asylum in Great Prescott Street.

Fires in Latter parish blamed on incendiary acts

Two fires last week in Rev. Richard Arkwright's property in Latter parish are attributed to an incendiary. One barn and a disused workhouse burned on Tuesday night, attracting a large crowd and prompting complaints about disorder. A second blaze damaged a thatched farm roof near Baker’s holdings, with firefighters thwarting wider spread. No clues identified to the culprit. A third fire incident near Mr Rickards’s workshop at Gun-street Spitalfields saw constables and Inspector Harris extinguish flames from a second floor workshop after following smoke.
