Grand Duchess Converts to Greek Faith and Betrothal
A report from Copenhagen describes the Grand Duchess embracing Greek Orthodoxy in the Winter Palace chapel, taking the name Natalia Alexiowna, and being betrothed to the Grand Duke at the Summer Palace chapel. The ceremony featured an Archbishop blessing and a grand imperial audience with a lavish reception and ball. The piece notes chimerical city illuminations and high court feasting, with foreign ministers paying homage. A separate item lists military promotions in various guards and regiments. A separate disaster note mentions a gale endangering a brig with two hands missing, and Portsmouth reports Alderman William Carter elected Mayor for the next year.
