Disguised Ambassador Foiled and Caribbean Sugar Plague
London reports a Turk in disguise claiming to be Ambassador from Persia to calm unrest, with the Sultan's forty day grace near its end. Sugar crops fail across the Caribbean due to pests, notably Nevis where a plantation yield drops from 178 hogsheads to 40. News also notes George Berkeley and his Lady arriving from spa, and Edinburgh magistrates pursuing the murderers of Captain Paretevus as six suspects are connected.
