Description

Folio 166. Copy of a letter detailing information of 18 April from Sedan, where the Bourbonnois infantry had spent three days prior to going to Mons. It is said that the Dauphinie cavalry regiment three miles from Sedan was going elsewhere, but beyond that there is no word of any other movements. In fact, it is known that the Bertueille Regiment which was in Luxembourg and should be in Bouffleur's army, received word from their Colonel to rest until 10 or 12 June. Bouffleur's army remains assembled at Gemappe near Marsche.
