Late Suicides at Sea and Circassian War Echoes
Reports state a gentleman's body washed ashore near Walton on the Naze after a suicide from the Hull steamer William Darley, with a watch and money found. Inquests adjourned for relatives. A separate long inquiry at Billingsgate found a man found drowned near the Thames, with valuables listed. The same issue carries a lengthy Concordance-like dispatch from the Caucasus, detailing Russian operations under Woronzow, defense by mountaineers, and the storming of Dargo amid heavy losses and loot taken by rebels. The account ends with commentary on Russian strategy and a raised title for Count Woronzow.
