Trade Affairs Council at Whitehall presides over Mills and fleets
Yesterday the Council on Affairs of Trade met at the Plantation Office Whitehall with Earl of Livervoon presiding. The Middlesex Deputy Lieutenancy committee held interviews with Mr. Pir on supplementary militia business. News included East India fleet homeward bound from St Helena under Commodore Branxett and Admiral Papainstone convoying most ships home. Reports also noted the loss of the Cormorant sloop under Captain Cottingham blown up near Port-au-Prince with few survivors, and a melancholy tale from Philadelphia of the Morant troopship explosion killing all aboard after an entertainment aboard. The French in Italy pressed clergy prayers for the invincible Republic, and notices announced letters to Spain via Lisbon. A survey near Bow aims to supply Elpur mills, a forgery valued at a large sum was found on the Norwich Bank, and an arbitration over funds between Sir W Ye, Bart and Mr. Haverinpoint proceeds.
