on a young woman named Alice Mumford, who resided
with her mother, and induced her to accompany him to 16,
Montague-court, Bishopsgate, a house of ill-fame, kept by
a woman named Gunn. He lived there with Mumford
until Monday morning, when he died in a very sudden
manner. He had previously been in perfect health.
