Foreign Ministers and public notices amid British unrest
Several foreign ministers were present at a bail night scene while the Lord Mayor plans to publish names and residences of bakers and butchers found selling bread or meat short of weight during his mayoralty. Reports from Newfoundland and Petersburgh describe ships The Hope Fisher and The Triton Dewit and cautious hope of escape near Copenhagen. The New-York Gazetteer notes Provincials seizing Asia man of war boats and threats against provisioning. Local court actions include fraud complaints, dinners for soldiers, and various deaths and occupations. Medical ads tout Dr James's Fever Powder and Daffy’s Liniment with pricey lotteries advertised by Nicholson Co. in Cornhill.
