Plymouth orders two ships to join Keppel’s fleet to patrol the French coast. Keppel’s 21 ships, three frigates, two armed cutters and the Vulcan fireship were sighted near Scilly. Reports from Aberdeen, Newry, and Brett describe privateers, landings, and regiments shaping coastal defense. The Queen and King toured Windsor, with plans for a summer residence at Windsor and royal encampment reviews. Markets note pepper prices. militia and troops move to garrisons. various naval and merchant vessels are captured or chased. A string of promotions, marriages, and obituaries conclude the summary.
