Naval Action Near Cape St Vincent Aboard Dover
The Dover engaged three Spanish warships off Cape St Vincent with heavy weather hindering gunnery. After three hours the Dover, outgunned, withdrew to port with nine killed or wounded, while Cadiz later reported the Spaniards reaching Cadiz damaged and short of masts. Concurrent notes mention deaths and court matters, stock prices, and an array of advertisements and publications.
