Plague Ravages Cities Across Europe and Levant Trade
Letters from Constantinople and the Levant report a severe plague outbreak sweeping cities including Adrianople and Alexandria with daily deaths around a hundred in the early month. Disturbing spread hits the Grand Vizier’s household. foreign ministers and janitors retreat to the countryside as French quarters vacant. News notes measures at sea and port towns, with plagues breaking again in Constantinople and Levant ports, and authorities ordering vessel searches and quarantine at the Tower of London’s health office. Reports from Barcelona, Madrid, and other ports describe fortifications, naval movements, and diplomatic maneuvering as Congress and peace talks unfold. The gathering also lists ship arrivals, subscriptions to a bridge project, and cultural notices from London theaters.
