Scope and content
He has interviewed Armishaw, the police officer from Welsh Pool, who has now returned from Llanidloes sadly bruised. Special constables, the officer says, will be of no service against such a mob. A gun was fired in the room of the hotel. The number of the rioters was supplemented by about 300 miners from the country. A strong body of regular soldiers will be needed to capture the offenders. Newtown is also in a state of unrest; and there are upwards of 100 Chartists in Welsh Pool. Charles Jones, junior, has left Welsh Pool for Birmingham, presumably to communicate with the party there.
