Yesterday came into this port the Thomas and Michael of London, Edward Collet master, bound to the Streights; the Expedition of Topsham, Joseph Parsons master, bound home from Lisbon; and the Southampton Galley of Southampton, William Bucklock master, bound home from Viana. This day came in here the Hope of London, Aaron Everdon master, and the Two Brothers, Francis Coy master, both bound to New England; and the Barnet of London, Edward Drake master, sailed from hence, being bound home from Barbadoes.

Editorial note: Internal issue heading: From Thursday Junes. to Wonday June ro. 1700.. Normalized conservatively from a datelined maritime report. Mapped to Plymouth harbour area. Retained because it ties Plymouth into Atlantic and Iberian shipping circuits.
