Spanish Warship and Powder Mills Shine in Portugal
Liston reports the Royal Squadron of Spain under Capt Christian Meller anchored off the West Indies coast last month. The ship paused seven to eight days for water then continued to Cadiz. In Barquerena four new powder mills, overseen by Don Anthony Cromer, began operation with high success. Mass was held in a new chapel near the manufactory on the Conception feast day. Hermit Father Thomas Peixoto, noted theologian and ex provincial, died in Lisbon at age seventy on the 12th.
