Sickness in Bokestin and court appointments in 1741
Reports from Pretden and Whitehall recount a feverlike sickness in Bokestin especially Prague, while noting major British court changes: William Earl of Harrington resigns as Secretary of State, John Lord Carteret appointed, and various noble titles conferred or filled. The long dispatch describes European diplomatic movements and military preparations around February 1741 and from Milan to Vienna, including Prince William Hyacinth of Nassau Siegen and shifts in Bavarian and Hungarian affairs.
