Rome Conclave Inquiries Cloud Papal Election Progress
Rome March 18 reports a near fatal condition for Cardinal Pamfili as the Conclave activity continues. Cardinals Bentivoglio Imperiali and Colonitz maneuver amid factions to influence the papal election with Ultra montane arrivals awaited. Corcia, Albani, and Ottobani figures push for access and papers while Albani’s faction resists confinement. The scene notes Naples gossip of Don Nicholas Pignarsll’s death and Corsican troop movements as ships arrive and depart.
