Notices from St James's Palace and Whitehall announce that the Band of Gentlemen Pensioners becomes His Majesty's Honourable Corps of Gentlemen at Arms. Appointments include Sir John Mark Frederic Smith as Gentleman Usher and Chevalier de Cussy named Consul at Dublin. A royal licence allows James Shaw to adopt the surname Kennedy. Insolvency declarations list several individuals and trades across Britain.
