Naval dispatches from 1782 report fleet movements and health
The lettered dispatches describe Sir George Rodney and Kempenfelt coordinating against the Dutch at the Texel, with English ships blockading and several vessels arriving at Portsmouth and Charlestown. Influenza-afflicted sailors on the Bellona and Goliah prompt naval reinforcements. Prisoner exchanges and a grand jury report on convicts complete the update.
