Newcastle-On-Tyre -- A picturesque corner of Newcastle has its face washed -- windows get dirty quickly in the grimy city air. The plaque reads: "From the above window, November 18th, 1772, Bessy Switees descended and eloped with John Scott, later created first Earl of Eldon and Lord Chancellor of England". January 01, 1948.
