Mediation offered for general peace and naval exploits
Letters from Ratisbon report Empress Catherine and King George III offering mediation to end hostilities. A British privateer action near Plymouth involved the Savage and Peggy against a 16-gun enemy vessel, with pursuit aided by oars in light wind. Reports from Toulon mention dispersion of fleets and prisoners returned to England, plus appointments at Plymouth Naval Hospital. Obituaries, executions, and legal notices fill the rest of the page with details on public figures and local appointments.
