Letter on British intentions and Dutch response 1726
The Marques de la Paz writes to Mr. Stanhope from St. Ildefonso on August 19 1726 regarding the need to declare the true intentions of the British Crown and the designs of the English squadron led by Admiral Jennings. He notes the King’s order to dispatch an express and to seek firm clarity without equivocation while awaiting orders from his Court.
