Description

Folios 129-130. Letter dated at the Hague from the Prince of Waldeck to the King. After giving directions for the providing of food and ammunition for the army he is going to Maestricht to be nearer his troops and the allies. He hopes to be able to consult with Count de Solms on various matters. Considers that if they could get the Elector of Saxe to act, that would facilitate the King's plans. M. de la Tour promises much in Piemont, if Caraffa makes good on his promise to deliver all of the Imperial troops on 1 May. The Elector of Treve's envoy advises against the plan for Mont Royal with other ridiculous propositions.
