Unsettled Atlantic News and London Notices
A fragmented 18th century digest reports ships arriving and departing from Bristol Liverpool and Virginia, with mentions of Dover, Plymouth, and Newfoundland. It records maritime movements, court sessions at Guildhall Hicks's Hall and Old Bailey, a Sturgeon caught in the Thames, marriages and legal recognizances, and various stock and commodity prices including South Sea stock and Bank exchanges. It also notes a concert on the water and nominations for sheriff, plus a London widow’s inquest verdict and a Kent robbery case.
