Consternation as Troops In Port Passage Besiege Fortifications
Reports chronicle fear and flight of inhabitants due to large French troop presence at Port Passage. Fortifications are being repaired and new works added as letters from Holland and Paris arrive. The Duke of Berwick reaches Port Passage with a strong army, while Cadix and Biscay communications shift amid shifting loyalties and ongoing naval movements across Cadix, Bayonne, and Amsterdam circles.
