Winter has set in fast, ships shut in at Kronstadt. de Swartz says that an idea which prevailed in Sweden was that Russia had a project of giving commissions to Dutch and English subjects to fit out privateers against Sweden - the States General denied knowledge of any such scheme, and directed ministers here and at Stockholm not to grant such commissions to any foreigners. Next post will draw from the Treasury 2 bills of exchange for £2,953 sterling for Jacob Wolff. Untrue that Wich's baggage is at Kronstadt Dated St Petersburg, 10 Nov 1741.
