Rumor of Italian action near Tortona grows unclear
A circulated tale from Francfort details an Italian theater with Count de Gages reportedly taken prisoner with 12000 troops near Tortona on the 17th, Don Philip retreating with 700 to Genoa, and 4000 horse under Nadafti. The report cites letters from Venice and imperial sources, while noting no courier verification. Additional dispatches mention Sardinian forces and British diplomacy at Breda as well as Vittory updates from Voghera and Rottofreddo.
