Nocturnal Frolics End in Street Attack in Suffolk Street
A report from Haverford-West describes Italians in a house plot to trick a stranger with false deliveries to boozed up chairs at two inns, mistaken targets leading to a street brawl where a Gentleman of the Army defends himself, several Italians knocked down, and others flee. The piece also covers shipbuilding and naval affairs, including Buffs launch, a New York vessel project, and a Paris rencounter involving Mr. Hamilton.
