Diplomats in Paris discuss ball ceremony clash with nuns
Paris reports ministers at the Portuguese ambassador’s house addressed a letter to M Amelot about a ceremonial incident at a recent royal ball where the Counts Clermont and Dombs stood before the embassies. The bishop of Auxerre laments the Calvaire du Marais nun protests, others follow, and he urges charity and prayer while defending church rights amid political pressure. London brief notes include deaths, appointments, a court case over smuggling tea and brandy, and stock market quotes.
