Vesuvius erupts as court returns to St James's in 1771
Naples May 14 reports Mount Vesuvius belching black smoke and lava near Refinar while the Sicilian court may not evacuate Portici. The lava, five miles long, destroys vineyards and forms a 60-foot fire cascade. The London court records royal addresses, court appointments, and bankruptcy notices amid ongoing European intelligence and ship arrivals.
