Court Receives Advice on Montemar Expedition
The London Evening Post reports the court was advised that Duke de Montemar heads by sea. Artillery war stores and provisions bound for Lombardy’s expedition are loaded aboard transports and gallies, awaiting final orders to sail with two warships. Reports from Bastia claim Genoese detachments stall near Procole and Corsicans seek leaders while preparing provisions, hoping Spaniards’ arrival in Italy will end Genoese rule. Brussels notes consider suspending saltary payments and trimming pensions to fund augmentation troops.
