Swedish Armaments Rise as Finland Troops Grow Strong
Amid political shifts and secret negotiations in Sweden, armaments both at sea and on land surge. A 35,600 strong Finnish army with 18,000 reinforcements is reported, along with a large convoy of money and new clothing for soldiers. Reports hint at negotiations for accommodation, while Finch’s arrival and ships from America raise questions. A robbery in Track Itregt is noted, and Lord Sackville arrives to oversee absent officers as markets show good cattle and harvest prospects.
