Treaty Ends War Tension as Sweden Ships for France Crisis
A report from Stockholm on May 16 notes a concluded treaty with France allowing the Crown of Sweden to furnish several warships if France is attacked. The May 19 dispatch from Viana speaks of a boomed Bohemian summer camp and promotions, while Paris and the Hague report naval actions between French and English ships near Rochefort and ongoing imperial politics. The Atlantic and plantation briefs describe frontier skirmishes with Indians in North America and a mounting war atmosphere in Britain.
