Care or Goop Hops Extract of a letter from Capetown
An excerpt describes distress in Capetown due to the loss of slave property valued at over 3,000,000 pounds and threats from hostile enemies, with uncertainty about Britain’s restitution. The Hague reports debate over interest payments on the national debt and Belgium’s share, amid calls to protect public credit and explore relief. A murder trial in Beister prompts arrangements for Recorder Sir Charles Wetherell to preside, as crowds gather in Totterdown and Hol Guildhall for the proceeding.
