Dublin Riot and Naval Suspects Near the Harbour
Captain Mercer captures about ninety men aboard a vessel in Dublin harbour suspected of foreign service. The same night a riot on Comb and Francis street leaves Reily dead and several wounded. Bishop Meath preaches charity at St Andrews with a 118 pound collection. Proclamations, auctions, and notices follow, including creditor meetings, land lease sales, and advertisements for books and public notices.
