Dutch Train of Artillery Passes Through Place Toward Bruffels
Amid tidings from Ghent to Lifle a convoy of provisions reaches the area as 43 boats arrive. Cavalry clashes near Aetht yield prisoners and spoil, with 599 dragoons and officers captured. Allied forces march to encamp near Louvain as contingents from Saxony Wirtemberg and Mercy join. Marlborough lands at the Brill to meet officials, with talks shaping a possible general peace and terms resembling the Pyreneean treaty.
