Gossip and Dispatches From Europe and London
The report mixes saloon rumors with naval appointments, scandalous intrigues in Naples, Italian succession worries, and a spate of local notes. It mentions Drams sold in High Holborn, Townshend's naval appointment, an attempted assassination in Naples, shifts in Tuscany succession, Spanish English disputes over deserters, official mourning for the Princess of Conti, and the Ba cropped alms houses in Mile End funded by Barcroft. It also notes Watkin Williams Wynne as the new mayor facing city expenses and a large turnout at a church ceremony.
