Royal pageantry and East India votes mark London week
Royal entertainments in Whitehall and St James's highlight a busy week with Duke of York gifts, Duke of Richmond levees, and a grand route at Harringtons. East India Company balloting yields Directors majority, with Scrutineers correcting ballots. Notables attend theaters, hospital governors’ meeting, and advances in trade and public works accompany civic notices.
