London Evening Post adds on Prussian clash and allied moves
The London Evening Post reports from August 2 to August 4, 1757 on ongoing operations around the Austrian and Prussian camps. It notes British forces near the Prussians, troop movements from Leitmeritz toward Bohmisch Leipa, and courier reports of skirmishes and captures, with French and Hanoverian actions in Westphalia and Holster ham. The letter also cites naval and colonial news from Berford, Calcutta, and Portsmouth, including ships arriving, an engagement near Calcutta, and privateer captures.
