Monarch promises economy and royal concessions amid turmoil
From Paris to London reports describe King Louis XVI seeking peace, reducing bread prices, and planning a general economy. He pledges to govern with ministers and curb royal income while reforming taxes as funds recover. Letters to the Duke of Orleans reveal personal warmth and loyalty. In Britain, debate over the Quebec bill continues, with hearings on Canadian law and colonial governance, and Parliament hears accounts on Newfoundland and Irish affairs.
