Remarkable Fire and Executions in 18th Century London
A countermanded cannon draw through Cherbourg is noted with ribbons. Obituaries mark marriages and deaths including Thomas Territt and Matthew Sargent Esquire. A massive Montgomeryshire fire destroys Edward Jones’s house and surrounding properties in Llanvair. London fires in Wapping and Addle Hill cause widespread damage. Guildhall sessions report a pickpocket conviction and upcoming Old Bailey proceedings. Marine Society subscriptions and public gratitude items fill much of the text, alongside debates on wartime expeditions and their strategic value.
