Yesterday morning, :as a young man, named
Lloyd, 18 years of age, was driving a cart along
Blackfriars-road, the horse took fright and run away
with him ; he was thrown out near Nelson-square,
and the wheel passing over his head, killed him on
the spot. His body was taken to his friends in
George-street.
Yesterday, as a man was propping one of the late
burnt houses in Duke-street, Aldgate, some of the
ruins fell upon him, by which he was so much hurt
as to be taken to the Hospital, without the least hope
of recovery.
L. Gasquet, Esq. was yesterday charged, at Bow-
street, with sending a challenge to A. Richardson,
Esq. The parties formerly belonged to the '2oth
Dragoons, and the challenge was sent in consequence
of some expressions used by Mr. R. relative to Mr.
G.'s leaving the regiment. He was held to bail to
keep the peace for twelve months.
Yesterday an attorney was charged, at the Man-
sion-house, with aiding and assisting in robbing and
carrying away property from a warehouse in Vine-
street, Minories, belonging to the late Mr. Steel,
map-seller, formerly of Tower-hill, while in care of
a Messenger of Bankruptcy, part of which was
found in the possession of one Briton, who refused to
give it up, having purchased it. Mr. ALLEY, Coun-
sel for the defendant, confessed that his client had
acted under a mistake, but not with a felonious in-
tent ; for, having married the widow of the late Mr.
!.Steel, he supposed himself entitled to the
.property
his wife was in possession of. This was answered by
a Gentleman for the concern, who said, that the de-
fendant's wife had been separated from him above a
twelvemonth, and had charge of the property for the
creditors, and what business she did was for herself,
independent of her husband, as a female citizen, ac-
cording to the pr;vilege of the City.—The Lotto
MAYOR said, the defendant had no right to take the
property, and ordered it immediately to be restored,
and admitted The defendant to bail for a further.
