London Print Publishes Naval Dispatches From Revel
A long excerpt from a London print details British squadron movements off Revel, news of the Ruffian fleet at Cronflor and Petersburgh, and provisions on board. It reports on Admiral Wager and the squadron’s intentions, the transport of manufactures to Moscow via Ladoga, and Persian reports of Turkish forces near Iipahas. It also notes diplomatic chatter about Holstein Gottorp and Sweden amid Vienna treaties.
