Port News and Trade Debates on Woollen Manufactures
In Port News letters from April 28 condemn export of wool and urge action to restore the woollen trade. A citizen defends wool manufacturing against linen advocates, cites Sir Josiah Child, and hints at Ireland trade issues. Amid dispatches, various arrivals and official notices, pardons, and ceremonial orders follow, with maritime prizes listed and stock and theatre notices included.
