Gibraltar May 24 Eight Regiments Fortifications Complete
Reports from Gibraltar describe eight regiments totaling around eight hundred men, with fortifications and new works completed. Workmen are no longer employed there. The British fleet awaits in Tangier y, while Moorish and Barbary actions loom. Adversaries prepare for possible landings, and Moorish support appears to grow as Spain plans potential seizures. A British packet brings hopes of arrears, and tensions rise with reports from Holland and Madrid of strategic moves and embarkations.
