Stockholm, 21 July. At Karlskrona and at the yards were thousands of men busy with as result that within short time a 90-gun ships of the line and a 84-gun ship of the line were to be launched. The keels for other new ships were all ready lying prepared. At Kalmar and at Oeland where a large amount of timber was available were the smaller vessels like frigates, cutters and brigs to be built. In Swedish Pommern ordered the yard master to cut down a large number of heavy oaks.
