On Saturday a great body of sailors met in St. George's Fields in the East, and went to St. James's, with colours flying, drums beating, and fifes playing, and presented a petition to his Majesty, setting for the hardships they at present labour under, on account of the smallness of their wages, &c. and praying relief.
