four Officers one Ingenier and forty or fifty Soldiers wounded at the Attack of Grondt during the Night of the 21st to the 22d and all this Day the Besiegers laboured to get ground on the right leaving the Ravelin on the left and they brought Canon to ruine the Communication of the Gate with the Castle which they batter incessantly The Mareschal de Crequi continues to visit and press the Works and to give all the Orders necessary for advancing the Siege with all the Vigilance and good Conduct imaginable There arrive daily at the Camp many Noblemen strangers whom Curiosity excited by the report which is spread about of the Beauty of this Sieges Works and of the good Order of the Attacks brings thither from all the neighbouring Countries The Enemies have done their utmost to endeavour the putting some Succour into the Place The Count de Valsassine and the Duke de Bejar undertook to get in at the Head of four Hundred reformed Officers and three Hundred Dragoons and they came within three Leagues of the Place But having learnt from the Guides of the Countrey the Disposition of our Works and that it would be impossible to execute their Design they retreated and took their way to Bruxelles The Works which have all been conducted by the Sieur de Vauban with such Success that they have hindred the Enemy from making any Sally are in very good Condition They would have been farther advanced had not the Mareschal de Crequi according to the King's Orders ordered the Attacks with all the Precautions necessary to spare the Troops and moderate the Ardour of our Gentry May the 22d in the Evening the Marquess de Lambert Lieutenant General and the Sieur de Refuge Brigadier of Foot relieved the Posts on the right hand of the Trenches with two Batallions of Piedmont The Sieur de Langallerie Mareschal de-Camp relieved the Posts on the left with one Batallion of Auvergne and two Batallions of the Royal. During the Night and the following Day our Men wrought on the right hand upon a Battery of three Pieces of Canon against the Palizadoes of the Counterscarp for to batter the Face of the Bastion of that side and that of the Half-Moon which is on the left and for to dismount a Piece of Canon the Enemies had put there a little while since We began also a Battery of Mortar-pieces behind the first Battery for to hinder the Firing which the Besieged made from the Bastion and Half-Moon The two Lodgments of the Besiegers were lengthned and there were finished two or three and twenty Mines in the Countergard to be made use of when we should have seen the effect of three others which had been made at the point of this Countergard The Enemies cast during the Night a great Quantity of Granadoes and Fireworks upon the Workmen and into the first Posts for to retard the Works But in the Day the Besiegers fired so fiercely that it hindred them from appearing to shoot and the Work went on without any opposition There was made at the Attack of old Munster a Battery of Mortar-pieces for to endeavour to drive the Enemies out of the third part which was left them of the Castle and to make a Lodgment there without much loss At the Attack of Grondt the Houses whereof the Besieged had this Night burnt the Works went still on leaving on the left the Ravelin which they possest and pushing towards the Gate of the Castle of Munster which was in the mean time continually battered by our Canon The Marquess de Montpesat was kill'd at this guard this Day in the Morning We lost there an Ingenier with ten or twelve Soldiers and there were two Captains of Foot and three inferior Officers wounded with fifty Soldiers The same 23d in the Evening the Count du Plessis Lieutenant General and the Sieur de Morton Brigadier of Foot relieved the Posts of the Trenches on the right with a Batallion of Normandy and that of Soissons The Sieur d'Erlac Mareschal de Camp relieved the Posts on the left with the Batallions of Lyonnois and Turenne In the Night we extended and perfected the two Lodgments on the Counterscarp and we wrought to make the Communication of the one with the other The Besieged sprang a Mine under the Lodgment on the left but no body was hurt by it because our men were retired to free themselves from a very great Number of Granadoes and Fireworks which the Enemies cast there during the space of two Hours We resetled our selves there afterwards much better than we were before At six in the Morning the Enemies pretended they would make a Sally but they durst not advance having seen our Granadiers march towards them with great resolution An hour after the Battery of three Pieces of Canon began to play and at the same time we cast store of Bombs from the Battery of Mortar-pieces which was behind it The fifth of these Bombs fell upon two or three thousand Granadoes which were in their Half-Moon and set them on fire The Fire was very great for above an Hour and we saw in the Air abundance of Hats and Pieces of Clothes which made us judge that many of the Enemies were kill'd and wounded The 24th our Men charged the Mines of the Countergard and we battered with two Pieces of Canon the Caponieres which are in the Ditch that runs along the right side of this Work The great Battery of Paffendal continued to batter a Breach in the Face of the Castle which looks toward this Fauxbourg and we continued also to cast therein store of Bombs with good Success The Besieged possess'd no more of the Counterscarp but the Redan which covers the Half-Moon and the two Parties were so near one another that the Enemies with Hooks pluckt away our Gabions and Fagots and drew them into their Ditches These great Progresses began to shake the Besieged Two Run-aways come from the Place to the Camp affirmed that the Colonels and a part of the Officers of the Garrison spake of capitulating to preserve their Soldiers the Besieged having then lost above six hundred Men kill'd or wounded by our Bombs or by shot from the Trenches These Fugitives added that the Inhabitants and the Women incessantly besought the Prince de Chimay to prevent by a Capitulation the Miseries whereunto they should be exposed if they expected the last Extremities The Besiegers lost at this guard the Sieur de Valorge Captain of the Granadiers of Lyonnois with eleven Soldiers An Ingenier two inferior Officers and about forty Soldiers were wounded My Lord Howard Son to the Earl of Carlile who was a Volunteer was mortally wounded as he was giving Marks of a great Courage The 24th in the Evening the Marquess de Genlis and the Marquess de Nesle mounted on the right hand of the Trenches with two Batallions of the Marine and the Count de Broglio mounted on the left with two Batallions of the Queens In the Night
first extended themselves under the Bastion on the left where were thrown at them a great Number of Granadoes The others which followed them extended themselves along the Curtain and the Bastion on the right at the Foot of the Breach after which they ascended together with much order to the Top of the Breach to settle themselves there But those who advanced to the end of the Curtain which joins the Bastion on the left met with a vigorous opposition At the same time the Enemy sprang two Mines in this place which obliged the Commanded Men to retire to preserve themselves but having presently recovered the right hand of these Mines with the other Troops they chased thence the Besieged and began on all sides to settle the Lodgments by means of abundance of Fagots which were incessantly brought thither The Troops which were in the Bastion on the left to resettle themselves there were disquieted by the Granadoes which the Besieged cast also from the side of the Ditch But we caused them to be driven by some Officers and Soldiers as far as the Wall which is on the left that goes down from the Place to the Ditch and flanks the Bastion of Barlemont where they laboured to retrench themselves The Besieged in their Retreat set on fire a little Magazene fill'd with Bombs Granadoes and Powder whereby many of the Besiegers were kill'd or wounded Four Companies of Spanish Foot defended the Countergard and the other Works which are joined thereunto were defended by Detachments They made so obstinate a Defence that our Troops though using their utmost endeavours had for half an hour much difficulty to get possession of the Top of the Breach the place of it self being very high and the Ruines of the Mine not being solid enough to make it firm But after a fierce Charge of Muskets and Granadoes our Men so vigorously disputed the matter with the Swords point that the Enemy was with much loss driven from this Post and many Spaniards who would not ask Quarter were cut in pieces Some carried on with an extreme desire of signalizing themselves went as far as the Ditch of the Place The Lieutenant of the Granadiers of Rouergue followed by ten or twelve bore up with great Constancy against the Charge of forty Masters and the greatest part of the Horse was kill'd and the rest put to flight by help of the Firing of the Granadiers which were in the Countergard The Commandant was also kill'd by the Count de Mailly who went to meet him having seen him advance his Sword on high Our Men would have made a Lodgment near the Ditch over against the right hand Front of the Bastion but the extraordinary Firing of the Besieged which kill'd us some men obliged them to take the resolution to retire along the Battlements of the Wall The Besieged had placed three little Pieces on the Terraces covered with Trees on the side of Grondt having judged that they should be attackt thereabouts and the Troops which they played upon in the flank were very much incommoded by them as also by the Ordnance which they had on the Flank of the Bastion opposite to that of Barlemont There was not for five or six hours any intermission of Firing We lost twenty or five and twenty Officers with about three-score and ten Soldiers and there were many wounded amongst whom was the Chevalier de Megrigny and the Sieur de Marny Ingenier The Captains of the Granadiers of Bourbonnois and Conti were kill'd The Sieur de Sainte Marthe Captain of the Granadiers of Auvergne and the Sieur de Castillon Captain of Navarre were wounded The Marquess Bourlemont Brother to the Duke of d' Atri was slain The Duke de Choiseut was wounded with the shiver of a Bomb above the left Eye whereof he died some Days after and the Vidame de Laon Son to the Count du Roy was wounded with a Musket-shot through the Body both of them giving Testimonies of a singular Courage The Prince de Conti and the Prince de la Roche sur-Yon exposed themselves to the greatest danger with a Valour worthy their Birth and the last received on the Stomach a blow with a Stone All the Volunteers signalized themselves there particularly the Prince de Tingry the Marquess de Crequi the Count de Luz the Count d' Estrees the Marquess de Thiange the Marquess de Nogent and the Marquess de la Batie The Duke of Grafton and the Duke of Northumberland his Brother and many other English Lords who came to the Siege in Quality of Volunteers signalized themselves on this occasion The Sieur de Vauban Mareschal de Camp was one of the first in the Countergard and gave there with his ordinary Sufficiency Orders very beneficial for the Security and Continuation of the Lodgments which were made there All the Foot which were at this Action acquitted themselves very well of their Devois and many Soldiers made themselves be taken notice of It was necessary after the effect of the Mine and the Lodgment built upon the Countergard to make a Descent into the Ditch The Count du Plessis Lieutenant General for the Day undertook this Care with all the Success that could be expected He made the Ditch be viewed He kill'd or put to flight all the Enemies that were found before him and afterward caused the Lodgments to be made notwithstanding all the Effects of the Besieged who cast from above the Bastions a prodigious quantity of Granadoes Bombs and Fireworks upon the Workmen and Soldiers He received under the Elbow a blow with the glancing of a Granado which made him for some time unable to stir it He ceased not to continue present at the Work of the Lodgment till such time as it was extended from the Gate of the Gallery of the Countergard which leads to the Ditch as far as the Bastion of Barlemont which made fifteen Toises Two hours after he put the Miners to work in two places one upon the right towards the Point of the Bastion and the other on the left drawing towards the Flank the Enemy not being able to incommode them The Works were continued the 30th and the 31st with much Success and we will give you the particular thereof in the following Relations May the 29th in the Evening the Count du Plessis Lieutenant General mounted the fifth time the Trenches and made the Descent of the Ditch with very good Success The 30th in the Morning we attackt the third Division of the Castle of Old Munster and made our selves Masters of it after some resistance of the Enemies They soon quitted this Work to retire upon the Rampart hoping by their fierce Firing to hinder our Men from lodging there About two in the Afternoon a Company of the Granadiers of Rouergue one of Languedoc and two of Fuzeliers supported by a Batallion of that Regiment wholly carried this Castle The Besieged had raised behind the Division a Battery of three Pieces We could not goe
