Venice Proscription of Seignior Veni for Treachery from Council of Ten
From the Paris Gazette and other reports, the Venice Council of Ten decrees Seignior John Baptista Venicoezer banishment from the Republic with perpetual exile, his name erased from the Golden Book, and a death penalty if found, plus confiscation of his property and a life inscription condemning him. The notice details harsh punishments and bans on correspondence, with public bells to summon authorities if seen. Also reports on Madrid, Leghorn, and The Hague about Dutch and allied actions, Turkish envoy, and English ships or prizes in the Levant, plus a London speech excerpt praising William III.
