Sobre la expedición del Almirante Hughes. El Almirante Hughes salió de Inglaterra (mar 1779) para la India Oriental con 10 navíos de línea y 3,000 hombres, con orden de dejar parte en el Golfo de Bengala y marchar con el resto a la Mar del Sur para destruir el comercio y saquear las costas meridionales de los dominios españoles; se cree (gacetas de Londres) llegue con 3 navíos + fragatas. Croix ordena a Neve alistar la defensa de la Península para evitar cualquier insulto en sus costas (y a Acapulco); lo mismo al Comandante de Loreto — pieza clave de la defensa costera de California en la guerra
