Dramatic Citizen Letter Urges UK Vengeance on Spain
An impassioned letter to the Daily Post denounces Spanish cruelty toward British subjects, condemns Moorish blood mixing claims, and urges hard retaliation. It argues for free trade, restitution for seized ships and crews, and public Spanish apology, warning of infamy otherwise. It cites Royal resolve under King George II and contrasts Britain’s valor with Spain’s alleged barbarity. Ship news from Deal, Dover, Gravesend, and Portsmouth accompanies the critique.
