Canonization festivities and royal notices across Copenhagen and London
In this city the bare foot Carmhéliye Nuns celebrated St. John de la Croix with a crimson damask church, grand altars and three days of music and illumination. Copenhagen reports the court staying through summer with frontier talks and a Greenland colonization marriage. London items note arrests, auctions, theater programs, lost items, and notices from May 1728, including a royal marriage contract, prison releases, naval orders, and commercial advertisements.
