Colonial ambitions near Sierra Leone described as favorable and fertile
The report details a proposed land purchase 40 miles square leeward of Sierra Leone for a settlement after the rainy season. Colonists are healthy and hopeful, though Mr. Bacon and his wife fall ill. Recaptured prizes from the Alligator reflect naval strain against the slave trade, prompting calls for more capable ships. Naples is reported dead from cancer.
