Master Of A Bark Tricks Austrians For Provisions
An extract from Lyons dated Feb 10 recounts a master aboard a bark deceiving Austrian guards during a voyage Cannes to Villafranca. He staged a tempest, cried for aid, sailed to Antibes with a white flag, was seized, and the cargo unpaid for his prior trips. The report notes broader Mediterranean and European wartime movements, including Genoa plans and French actions in Provence.
