Caesar Parr

Biography

A Peel man who publicly called Charles Lutwidge 'an Egregious Smuggler.' Lutwidge sued for slander. The case collapsed when Parr 'prepared his defence & bid him defiance.' Lutwidge's shipping survey of September 1766 noted that of the entire smuggling fleet, one boat survived — 'belonging to one Cesar Parr a Smuggler in Peel.' The last man standing.
