Ships fitted for Fireships and Admiral orders amid Irish notices
Reports from Woolwich and Deptford describe five ships bought for the King's service being converted into fireships, crews assigned to the Tryal Fly and Swift sloops, and numerous Admiralty reshuffles after Captain Solguard's death. Dublin and Waterford notices warn of pardons and bounties for deer killings and insolvent debtors, with varied proclamations across several counties.
