Aubeterre [French ambassador in Rome] had tried to persuade the cardinals to give the pretender's son his father's titles. Praslin has told him not to meddle. Francerecognises only one king of Great Britain. Richmond and Choiseul have again disagreed about Dunkirk. Choiseul has complained about Rochford's memorial [see f.65].
