Two French Sloops Cleared as Privateers Near Spain
Canterbury reports French sloops suspected as Spanish privateers are cleared. London notes boastful political jests on opposition, then lists numerous maritime appointments, weddings, deaths, trials, and naval actions. Reports include captains appointed to Duke and Drake, a Turkey Company consul election, and privateer activity with ships taken or captured near Gibraltar and Cadiz.
