Fragmented coastal action and varied book notices in a 17th-century page
The report details a feisty coastal encounter with ships judged by a witness as around seventy galleys, with French forces driving along the Sands to Morgat road while English ships remain in harbor. Alongside are several book notices, a Greek New Testament, adages collection, and mathematics and antiquities works. A gray trotting mare is advertised for sale by Thomas Collins, with specific markings and a reward for information leading to a purchaser.
