Opposition to Lord Macartney's Madrass governorship
Fragment from a debate among directors and proprietors over appointing Lord Macartney to govern Madrass. General Smith and others oppose the appointment citing exclusions of long-serving officers like Mr. Cotsford and concerns over Nabob loans and governance. The discussion touches on Mr Benfield and an enquiry into his conduct, with a ballot ordered to confirm the appointment.
