Fleet moves to Sea as Danish and Swedish forces clash

Reports from Copenhagen and environs describe Vice-Admiral Troyel sailing with eight warships toward Rugen to support Seested’s assault. The Danish fleet, joined by the great praam and three gallies, nears Rugen while Swedish privateers retreat to safety. News from Memel and Revel detail Saxon and Muscovite troop movements toward Poland and Pomerania amid Austrian and Hanoverian shifts. Paris notes the king’s illness and Jesuit pressure, with Orleans pressing Tellier as Jesuit influence wanes.
