Unruly Letter Attacks Hodgson and Keppel Over Belleisle

A densely worded 18th century rebuttal letter blames General Hodgson and Admiral Keppel for failing the British cause in the Belleisle affair. The writer accuses them of ingratitude to Captain Brett of the Torbay and critiques decisions about the Bay of Zarash, breach breaches, and mine explosions. He urges publication of Allen’s case to expose perceived neglect and seeks accountability from the two commanders. The piece also notes political intrigue and various court rumors tied to Southampton society and the D of CL.
