Debate on American affairs in the House of Lords
The House met after three. The Duke of Gordon moved to lay before the King returns of officers and effective men in April to Boston prior to hostilities in Massachusetts Bay. A long debate followed with peers arguing for and against conciliation and the independence question. The motion failed after eight. Subsequent motions on reinforcements and winter quarters also failed. The session adjourned shortly after nine.
