Stockholm reports 18,000 Finland troops and 10,000 reserves. Bar on Rosen to be Veldt Marshal.

Privateer Captured and Ship Restored to Harbour Crew

In Ireland Castlehaven on January 28 the Alexander Privateer of Bayonne under Captain Dappleflieux captured the Industry of Boston loaded with pitch and tar, removing crew except Luke Redmund and William Willcocks. After distress and shifting winds the French released Redmund to pilot toward harbour, later retaking control before Redmund steered to safety. Willcocks and Redmund disarmed and secured the attackers as the ship reached port. A second item notes the Limerick, bound for Dublin, was beaten to pieces near North Bull after corn cargo transfer.
