Mail From Flanders Reports Continental Armies and Neutrals
A May 8 dispatch from Flanders notes the Germanic army under Field Marshal Prince of Deux Ponts and the Duke of Wirtemberg dispute detachments with French troops. The Duke may retreat with about 9200 men if his terms fail, while Heffe Casfel prepares a camp at Gielen and Hesle neutrality. London reports Yorke’s countermeasures against St Germain and potential qualms over mediation, with ships and prizes shaping the Atlantic balance.
