Last Sunday morning the body of William SKINNER, a Soldier in the Essex Militia, was taken up on Breydon, near Yarmouth; he was employed about two months since to watch some British Spirits on board a ship in the harbour; it is supposed he was intoxicated, a hole having been bored in the cask, and upwards of 30 gallons of Spirits lost. -- The Coroner's inquest brought in their verdict, accidental death.
Wednesday morning early was found suffocated in a ditch at Hempnal, Mr Thomas BOWLES, a considerable Farmer, the Jury brought in their Verdict, 'Non Compos Mentis.'
On Saturday, the 11th instant, as John LOCK, a butcher of Caston, near Hingham, was returning from our market, and being asleep, as is supposed, he fell down between the horses of his breast cart, who kicked him on the head, and he soon afterwards expired.
On Friday the 17th instant, died in the 90th year of his age, after a long and painful illness, which he supported with pious resignation, Mr John NEVE, senior, of Coltishall, carpenter. -- A man whose virtues, in every part of his life, deserve the highest encomiums.
