From London comes word that Lord North was summoned after reports that Prussia seeks to revoke Count Golowkin from Dantzick to press six regiments into that city. An edict in Portugal clamps marriages for widows over thirty to curb fortunes harming heirs. Banishments follow for three Jesuits over Palafox, translations, and letters. News from Jamaica and St John’s notes profitable Spanish doubloons schemes. Local crime reports include multiple robberies, hangings, and a spate of burglaries with suspects confronted by watch and courts. Several weddings and deaths are recorded, alongside bankruptcies and auctions.
