KENT ASSIZES
Of the 79 prisoners on the calendar, 18 were capitally convicted, and five following left for execution, viz:- Henry LANGRIDGE , 35, for the murder of Mr. SAXE , of Penshurst, about six years ago; Abraham ABRAHAMS , 24, Judah SOLOMON , 36, and Joseph SOLOMON , for being accessories in planning a burglary and felony, at Minster, Isle of Sheppy, of which three men were convicted at the last Maidstone Assizes; and John CRUTTENDEN , aged 33 ( indicted on the Black Act ) for feloniously and maliciously cutting a number of hop binds, growing on poles, in a plantation belonging to Mr. Samuel SANTER , of Benenden.
