A curious circumstance occurred in 1728 connected with this place. It appeared that on Friday ni^ht, July 19, 1728, Mr. Nathaniel Bostock, formerly a goldsmith, and afterwards a broker in Exchange Alley, was barbarously murdered upon the causeway between the Thames and the Archbishop's palace, Digitized by LjOOQ IC 999 ST. AI4 Kir's OfUTBlCT. It was about 1 1 o* dock wheir he was murda^ ; for abput that hour two bpy« io a boat near the place heard a man bee most ▼ehemejnftly tp.haye bis life sp...ared, upon which they calfed out murder, but.no help was near. In the morning his hat and wig were foi^fid upon the pkce all bloody, and cat in several pieces, and the wall was besprinkled with gore. This account, it sub-^ sequently appears, turned out to be false; for about the middle of August,. 1729, he was discovered to have resided, ever since the time of the sunposed murder, near Truro, in Cornwall, un- 4er the n%m^ of Tooiiias Humtfon, Esq. He was discovered through sending up four East India bonds, which were to be paid off; but wetfe' stopped by the Company in consequence of the report .of, the murder and robbery.
