Distracted wartime notices and prize reports from 1740

Reports detail multiple British ships dispatching men of war for convoy protection. Spanish captors have taken prize ships near Majorca and Cadiz, with crews stripped and forced to surrender. News recounts royal mourning, deaths of European monarchs, dockside fires, and local crimes, with privateers roaming the channel and Plymouth receiving orders to hunt Spaniards off Land's End.
