Paris Gazette detail on Barbary piracy and royal court notes
From Paris and Cadiz reports, Barbary corsairs raid ships while Dulcignotes prizes shipwrecks. A master fisher bark betrays pirates, the King suffers a stomach issue, and a council plans troop reductions. Cadiz reports chests of gold saved, and Marseilles notes ships from the Levant. Provincial finagling aims to reform maritime costs.
