The Assembly praised Paris steps to honor Benjamin Franklin with a funeral oration. It nominated twelve members for the ceremony including Mirabeau and Rochefoucault. An address urged abolition of perpetual clerical celibacy at the altar, and decrees set a unified National Guard uniform and display of standards in July.

Honour to Mr Heyntére Shaw and Lifinaah collectors

The work’s natural history is celebrated for the scientific assistance of Mr Heyntére Shaw and Dr Smith the professor of the Lifinaah collection. Plates and art production cited as best. A translator by Lore Mourti morres has rendered The Danger of the Political Balance of Europe. The noble Lord Lots is credited for ideas of the royal author in English dress. His file is not flawless but rises above ordinary translation.

Corrections on Walpole Pennant Antiquities note

Mr Walpole’s long study on London Antiquities is acknowledged with respect, and a small error from Page 134 is corrected. The Duchess of Tyrconnell did not act as a milliner in Exeter Change, but sat as a widow in white with a white mask, known as the White Widow rather than the White Milliner.
