Trouble in Tuscany and royal progress across Europe
A lengthy dispatch notes the Duke of Tuscany in frail health with hopes of recovery fading. It covers the king’s Warsaw return, a planned palace building, and land reversion. Reports from Rome discuss a church dispute over papal authority, a rare monstrous birth, fortifications at Gravelines, Versailles ceremonies, and a notable public case in London. Also dated notices from Barbados, Newfoundland, and Barcelona mention weather, waterways, and royal appointments.
