Swords and jewels gifted by the King and naval action near Wexholm
The King presents a French admiral with a sword and jewel set while a 64 gun man of war in the French squadron fires on a rock near Wexholm. Reports mention Bristol merchants arming privateers, cargo imports from Dunkirk and Spain, and a naval engagement near Greenland with whale catches. An ongoing campaign near Belgrade and the Danube describes troop movements, bridges, and Turkish forces, with Prince Lobkowitz and Count Wallis noted for strategic actions.
