Description (What the record is about)
-
Folio 71. [Robert Yard] reporting to Sir Joseph Williamson. Last night the 'Sally Rose', Capt [Captain] Pound Commander, came in here from cruising; her captain says that the French fleet, of about 40 sail, were divided, making the best of their way homeward. That between Portland and the Start he left four French ships, two of them three deckers, the others about 70 guns each, much battered, and tiding it out the Channel. He met with a Genoese, who told him that he spoke with the French Tholoun [Toulon] Squadron off of Lisbon, consisting of 20 sail, making the best of their way for Brest. This morning a tender came in on their Majesties' ship 'The Duke', saying that Admiral [Richard] Carter had lost his leg but is not dead as was said; the burning and blowing up of four of the French three deckers is confirmed.
