Description (What the record is about)

Folio 149. Extract of a letter from Niels Falck 'a considerable merchant at Falmouth' [Cornwall] addressed to Messieurs Lindgrea, Son and Grill in London, dated Falmouth 16 August 1779. 'We have been under arms ever since the French and Spanish fleets appeared off here, and this morning about 3,000 tinners came in and offered their service and to acquaint the town that 10,000 more were ready to take up arms. I am pretty certain we could in two days raise 50,000 tinners - never were people more strenuous than they are in this neighbourhood, The combined Fleet is gone to the eastward. They took some vessels off the Lizard'.
