Trial delayed for High Treason at Old Bailey
Yesterday Morning Mr. Matthews was brought to the Old Bailey for high treason, with a trial postponed to Friday seven nights. The vestry of Westminster New Chapel chose Herbert of Queen Street as preacher in place of the Bishop Bristol, and the Earl of Islay arrived from France. Admiralty reports describe actions against Spanish ships near Ribadeaus, the Dursley Galley, and the Greyhound, with captures of merchant vessels and a coastal battery. Nearby stock prices show South Sea stock at 117 and Bank at 143 amid ongoing disclosures and advertisements.
