Rebels and Fleet Movements Reported in Scotland and Channel
From Sterling and other ports comes word of Rebel forces moving toward Loch Tay and Ruthven of Badenoch while a second party advances toward the Tay. Reports also note arms and powder abandoned near Cambuskenneth and Perth, French privateering activity, and British naval preparations off Scotland and the Channel. News includes troop movements, sieges, and parliamentary actions in London, with emphasis on Hunter’s and Blakeney’s actions, supply affairs, and ongoing efforts to raise funds for the year.
