On Tuesday June 18 the Lords passed Sir Thomas Rumbold’s fifth Repeal bill and the East India bill. In a committee on a gallery building bill Lord Radnor moved to commit it. The Lord Chancellor and Lord Sandwich objected. The division ended 22 for, 27 against commitment.
The debate centers on a proposed policy with Mr Rigby defending the conduit as founded on precedent and seeking public security. He promises to repay public funds swiftly while noting that auditing and settling accounts will take time. Lord Cavendish then moves additional resolutions based on Commissioners' reports, all of which are carried. The meeting adjourned.
Extracts report Sir John Lockhart Ross returning from the North Sea with a squadron including Ocean and Buffalo due to sickness aboard, along with Baltic convoy movements and Admiralty actions. Mention is made of Lord Rodney’s prize money, a thunderstorm incident in Gravel Lane, and a long list of bankrupts across several trades.
