Informal Dispatches on Flanders Movements and Lifle Siege
Letters from Flanders report Marlborough at Riolaer and French forces near Bruges and Ghent amid plunder and fortification work. Brussels notes mayhem, new lines near Gaent, and worsening garrison sickness as Lifle siege tightens. An account of a Neva River battle describes heavy casualties, and a Copenhagen to Whitehall message announces Lifle capitulation and garrison retirement.
