We regret to state that some daring outrages have been the consequences of the want of employment in the parishes of Tibenham and Winfarthing. In the night of Saturday week a number of unemployed, and almost all single men, wreaked their vengeance on the overseers, by sawing through every other spoke of the new wheels of a waggon, belonging to Mr. Edmund Bale, of the former place ; breaking open the chaise-house, destroying a pipe of cider, and breaking and sawing into pieces two gigs, one of them quite new, on the premises of Mr. Hart, and cutting into pieces gates and ploughs on the premises of Messrs. Doggett, Woods, Humphries, and Pretty, &c. The parishes have offered a reward of 50l. for the apprehension of the offenders, and to that the Earl of Albemarle has added 20l. Seven men have been apprehended. |
