France's Poverty Claim Put to Pacification Plot
A London-printed broadside argues France feigns poverty to push a peace settlement favorable to the Queen of Hungary. It predicts Britain might be lured into concessions, warns of plans to patch rules for years, and cautions Britons to guard liberties amid continental shifts. It cites French subsidies, naval power, and trade shifts to explain the supposed strategy.

Recruits Remanded to Town as Guards Assist War Effort
London reports the three regiments of foot guards in the country raising recruits are remanded to town. A supply of butter cheese and beer was sent to transports carrying forces for Flanders, the ships lacking victuals initially due to expected contrary winds. Viscount Bolingbroke landed at Dover from France. Mr. Fowler, a differing minister, wed Miss Smith of the Sea at Somerset Chapel, a young lady with a fortune of 900 pounds.
