Surrender of Sardinia Garrison and Cagliari News
Letters from Genoa Leghorn and Bolonia report that Sardinia fell to the Spaniards after a siege. Garrison commander Rubi retreated to Alguero with 180 foot and 75 horse, hoping reinforcements would arrive. The capitulation allowed officers to march out with arms, soldiers to leave arms behind, and transport to Genoa with six month service restrictions. Neapolitan ships and forces are moving to bolster defenses.
