Court of Dittors orders ships for Indian service in 1800
A London court sat at the Waits House and ordered multiple ships to be assigned to India, China, and nearby stations for the 1800 season. Specific allocations include five to China direct, eight to Coast and China, four to Bombay and China, and several to St Helena, Bencoolen, and Bengal plus mixed duties. The Arethusa frigate with the Duke of Kent aboard arrived at Halifax. The Greenwich hospital will be augmented to accommodate wounded sailors. A balloon descent by Labroffe was described amid festival crowds. A fire destroyed mills at Seedhill, Paisley, with only the great wheel surviving. Accidents and highway robberies occurred near Salisbury and Uxbridge, with injuries but no fatalities. A ferocious storm at Hamburg caused lightning and structural damage but no major reported casualties.
