The Flying Pot Reports British War Preparations and French Skirmishes
A broad, early modern notice describes British plans for ammunition transport and cannon readiness aimed at pressing into France, with Milan merchants supplying mules and Piedmont undertakings to buy supplies. It notes French incursions near the city, a market riot over corn prices, and officials enforcing price controls, while envoys and generals move between Savoy, Milan, and Alsace.
