Appointment of Rochford as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland
The Earl of Rochford is named Lord Lieutenant of Ireland but will not assume command for over six weeks due to private affairs in Brussels. Egerton is appointed Lieutenant Colonel in the second regiment of foot guards. Reports from Quebec and Halifax describe Continental movements and engagements, including Howe’s divided forces and a naval action near Potapsco, with the Defence and Captain Nicholson conducting a gallant defense and prize retaking against the Otter and its tenders.
