Reports that upon the return of the Count Zerclaze [Tserclaes, Count of Tilly?] he has received a letter from the Baron d'Ennetenne, of which he is sending a copy to Waldeck. A man he sent to observe enemy movements has reported that Bouffleur arrived yesterday at Rines [Rhisnes?] and will today arrive at Dinant.
