Prize ship seized and Spanish goods found at coast
The Veffel St Coleman, captured by Capt Weller last week, is condemned as a prize. Spaniards aboard were seized in Cole's Lane and sent to the captain’s ship. Four more men said to be aboard. A Dutch vessel loaded with lead was ordered to Malaga. A separate wreck near Wicklow split a Maryland bound ship with 149 hogsheads of tobacco onboard and all but one crew saved.
