The Story of: The Naval Surgeon Sentenced for Sodomy
Sodomy, and the persecution thereof, was a prevalent theme in the newspapers thorughout the 19th century.  Stories related to the charge are everywhere.

This case in particular was noted in that the officer is shushed from mentioning high profile names of known personages engaging in sodomy (there was a club in London specifically for like-minded men to meet).

News of the Times Short #42 | 1738
The 10 Year Old Who Tried to Kill His Family
A highly shocking story involving a 10 year old boy. Consider that this takes place in 1738.  Fear of getting caught for slitting his parents throats pushes him to go a different way.  There was no law at the time to deal with this type of crime from a boy so young.

News of the Times Short #84 | 1779
The Story of: A Caution to Wearers of East India Handkerchiefs
This story  is a reminder that some things never change.  In essence, in time for holiday shopping, British goods are being seen to be undercut by goods through The East India Company.  The governement response is to ban anyone from buying or selling products not made in England.

To our American friends - this is not much different to the restrictions of what goods could be bought from whom in The American Colonies during this general time period causing understandable resentment.
