Battle near the Entrenchment and retreat across the Schelde
Reports describe an assault by a large enemy force against our trenches, breaching the entrenchment after heavy cannon fire. Many 17 battalions were killed or captured, including noble captives, while the bridge to the Schelde broke under baggage weight and caused drownings.
