Malta Galleys Set Sail Over Dispute At Sea
From Rome and Genoa dispatches describe a clash between the Pope's galley captain and Malta's commander over precedence, prompting Malta to sail toward Neptune. Other notes record envoy Vander Nienburg's journey to Naples, a French ship reporting plague in Constantinople, and plans to move the Duchess of Modena to Italy. In Stockholm, Cronstedt is named commander in chief in Finland with de Lewenhaupt and de Buddenbroek in key posts. The king’s guards train daily and Tennison is named Dean of Bath and Wells. Serious legal actions unfold in London with execution validity cases and multiple sentences, plus trade reports from Kinsale and port arrivals.
