Ambitious Boston War Dispatches From 1780 Harbor Skirmishes
A long, dense Atlantic column reports British and American movements along Penobscot, Rhode Island, and surrounding shores. It notes Gen Wadsworth’s raid up the river, the capture of two privateer cannon-laden sloops, and British losses. Embargo actions in Massachusetts urge troop retention and shipping restrictions, while numerous naval dispatches recount fleet movements, admiralty resignations, prize captures, and overseas correspondence with France and Spain. The item blends military actions, ship news, and legal notices in a period tone.
