Résumé
George Hay, juge de la la Haute Cour de l'Amirauté, consigne des éléments formels sur la capture du Dauphin, la guerre de sept ans et le droit maritime anglais. Dans le point numéro 4, il mentionne Sir Thomas Salusbury qui serait le juge chargé de statuer sur la prise du navire français. Le représentant du roi George II allègue que le navire Le Dauphin, capturé par les navires de guerre Somerset, Devonshire et Rochester, appartenait au roi de France et à ses sujets, et donc devrait être confisqué comme prise de guerre. Il demande que le navire et ses marchandises soient jugés comme appartenant aux ennemis de la couronne britannique et confisqués en conséquence par le tribunal de l'Amirauté.
