Plague in Constantinople and Far Reach of News
Constantinople continues to suffer a plague sweep with grave losses and a revived printing office under the Grand Viser's order. Reports from Persia note the dethroned Sophy’s death, Efreff’s weaken’d party, and Thomas’s adherents gaining ground. Georgian skirmishes yield casualties and captures as Ottomans consider war plans. Across Europe, diplomacy and fleet news, company shares, and royal ceremonies fill dispatches from Stockholm, Copenhagen, Leghorn, Bologna, Vienna, and London.
