Fortifications Expanded as Negotiations with Spain Continue
Lisbon July 5 reports that while negotiations seek reconciliation with Spain, the King funds fortification work along frontier towns and at Setubal. Foreign engineers depart to inspect and strengthen St Abes fortifications as rains ease and famine fears fade. The Camp at Velay notes royal reviews of squadrons and regiments, with Prince William commanding youth units and relief from the death of Ambassador Bieberstein. Weather remains extreme with serene mornings and violent hailstorms. A Quack advertisement section follows.
