150 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK (10th - 16th June 1869)
This week's many stories include a miner's savage assault upon his father in Parr, the Liverpool Road woman with twelve lodgers in her house, a protest meeting in Salisbury Street, more on the Eccleston environmental disaster, a fight between two families involving "hard words, pokers, stones, and various household articles" and the notorious Dennis Fay returns to court charged with riotous conduct in Bridge Street.
