Cruel recruitment and ship voyage to Halifax amid Highland emigration
A vivid account recalls Highland emigrants who fled for Florida but were intercepted near Boston. They refused to enlist in M Lean’s corps and were kept without food until Capt. Campbell threatened execution unless they complied. Wives and children were starved to pressure enlistment, after which families were shipped to Halifax. The report parallels the Glencoe incident in severity. Admiral Graves arrived at Plymouth aboard the Pretton. The Minerva from Liverpool limped into Boston, wrecked, after gales broke her rigging. Transport ships St Best and Laurel also reached Boston from Liverpool and Whitehaven respectively. An extra Chatham letter notes Amazon’s commissioning and Carysfort’s departure for America, with Pay Office dates for 1774-75. A violent Grange Road wind damaged hayricks. burglars robbed Dyot Street home. Old Bailey trials yielded several convictions and sentences. Notables appointed and marriages listed. deaths reported in Ireland, Jersey, Amsterdam, Oswestry, and London area.
