Gibraltar relief reported by two Continental dispatches
London reports from October describe two Continental accounts of Lord Howe's arrival at Gibraltar and a stormy voyage. A French and Spanish fleet clash left several ships wrecked or driven ashore while Howe anchored near Mount Ape and repelled later. Authorities claim Gibraltar is relieved with stores for 18 months and four new regiments.

Stormy Night and Court Changes in London Observed
A grim night ushers in reports of ships wrecked near Gibraltar and fleet actions. A Guildhall Court of Common Council votes to discharge Lord Mayor Peckham, while Lord Rodney is debated for a city entertainment. Updates from the Atlantic privateers, naval orders, and a spate of 18th century bankruptcies fill the day’s notices.
