Description

Folio 130. Unsigned letter to [the Prince of Waldeck?], written at 11pm. Relays credible reports that if the enemy march as they could, they will encounter them at Halle, and in that case they will be reduced at the Brussels Canal as foreseen. It seems there is no time to lose in warning of this calamity and executing the movement of the army approved by the English King (and relayed to [Waldeck?] by the writer from Namur).
