Raid at Melita Describes Bold Garrison Action
In Melita a night expedition of fifty garrison men, led by an officer and two serjeants, attacked the Infidels at 3 am with three feluccas and six Moors in the town. The assault routed the enemy, left two Spaniards slightly wounded, and brought back two entire bodies, whose distinction is noted. The report also mentions naval movements and coronation preparations in Moscow, plus Lisbon ship news and Dublin parliament updates.
