Detail  In Bury-street, of an apoplexy, aged 64, Capt. Jos. Salmon. He was the oldest lieutenant in the navy, and was at the siege of Quebec in 1759, and in that war commanded a frigate, which by his gallant defence saved the East India ships under his convoy, for which he was complimented by the East India Company with a very handsome piece of plate. He was youngest brother of John S. esq. and has left a widow and only daughter to lament his loss.
