I'm wondering if it is a case of exaggeration after all. Those references from Ninshub would probably have used the same source that The Gentleman's Magazine used. It's not mentioned in any contemporary English newspaper that I have access to.

I'll keep an eye out for it anyway. Thanks again.

I did a bit more looking earlier, and it seems there was a newspaper named the Wienerische Diarium (predecessor of the Wiener Zeitung) at that time. Some of the 18th-century issues have been digitised and are available online, but unfortunately not the ones for 1769, as far as I could see.
