Dublin Gazette 1741 Intelligence Abroad and Military Movements
The Dublin Gazette reports from August 8 to 11 1741 with arrivals from Paris and Fribourg. It notes a gang of eight highwaymen near Meaux captured after fifty years in crime, and hunts for Kowli Kan’s forces in Persia with speculation on possible war. It covers Russian and Swedish troop movements, French ports at Leghorne and Toulon, and pestilent sickness aboard a French vessel quarantined near Leghorne.
