London
Last week special Committee of the Thames Navigation arrived in their Shallop from Bristol on a survey of the Waters connected with the River Thames. The party comprised six members of the Corporation of London, including Mr Kirby, the Sheriff Elect. Demanded tonnage on the shallop but the chairman, Mr Hulcombe said they had passed toll free on every other canal but, if required, Mr Leach would pay. Shallop a complete masterpiece having every convenience imaginable.
