Newington Butts, the remains of Mr. William Allen, jun.  the
unhappy young man who fell by the hands of violence on
Tuesday last [in the riot at St. George's Fields], in the
20th year of his age.  The corpse was preceded by the
charity children of the parish, who sung a hymn properly
adapted to the melancholy occasion. . .
