Surrender of Dantzic and Baltic War News
Reports indicate Dantzic capitulated but terms similar to Dresden caused the field marshal to refuse ratification. Danish troops retreated as the Prince Royal approached, French forces under Davous closed in Hamburg, and English transports neared the Dutch coast. Allied HQ moved to Friedberg as Gertruy allegedly fell to Russians. Sir T. Graham reported arrival at the Roompot. Tolon and Were islands feature in disputed movements. Hely aboard and Lord G Srawanr took steps amid unrest.
