Siege updates and fleet actions near Liffe and Boulogne
Dispatches describe Ottoman and allied forces under Generals Fagel and Savoy moving to encampments, with bombardment on Liffe, and a French attempt to threaten lines near Brussels. The fleet reports storms, indecisive landings, and a decision to return to England for provisioning as disease and weather bite sailors. Queen’s convoy preparations and religious observances mark the period.
