Naples Letter Reveals Court Prep for Future Queen
From Naples and Rome comes word of lavish preparations for an upcoming royal residence. Fourteen new coaches are being built, four of them richly furnished, as the House of Farnese furniture is prepared for the palace fit. The Princess for whom this is done remains unnamed. Cerfini is named as first Lady of Honour. Meanwhile Copenhagen reports health concerns at Dantzick with strict precautions continuing, and a weekly tally of diseases and burials alongside financial market notes from the London Gazette.
