not be prejudiced, nor the peace which we have with them
be broken; but who dares trust to it? We provide upon all
occasions against it, the rather, because the Tartars have
been totally defeated by the moscovits, the like desent

From Christiana in Norway, 5 Novemb.
Our Army in these parts under the Command of George
Bielk, consisting of 3000 Foot and 1500 Horse, are broke up
from Holm, and we have certain news from them, that they
are come near to Grystium Broe. But the Enemy will not
keep their standing but flye from them, plundring and laying
waste the Countrey Towns and Villages that were under their
jurisdiction, and it is said, that they themselves have burnt
down Maerstrant and Cungel, because they finde themselves
not strong enough to defend those places: It is said also that
another Army intends to goe from Drontheim directly into
Sweden.
