Plunder and Siege Reports from Continental Fronts
From Camp at Bapre and nearby theaters, reports claim 3 to 4 hundred casualties including a Major and several officers. Our forces seized the village of the Prince of Luge and burned houses, sparing only the Prince’s. Two days hence the army moves to forage near Cambray while artillery heads to Denain for a siege. News from Leiden and Amsterdam detail suspensions, sails, and troop movements, with Commodores, Marines, and prize ships departing Dunkirk and routes to Provence and England.
