Surrender of Tourny Citadel Ends Hostilities at Mons
Reports from Brussels and London detail the capitulation of Tourney Citadel on September 3, with officers and soldiers to be exchanged or restored to allies. The Grand Army advances toward Mons, with Marlborough, Savoy, and Surville as hostage figures, while reinforcements and sieges unfold along the front. Barcelona letters reference Spanish and Austrian movements, and Dublin notes celebrate the surrender amid local depredations.
