THe
Towne
of
Hagenaw
being
strongly
besiege
by
the
Arch
Duke
Leopoldus
,
and
vpon
the
16.
of
May
,
all
the
sconces
about
it
taken
by
him
,
but
yet
with
great
losse
of
many
of
his
men
,
presently
thereupon
he
sent
certaine
messengers
to
Strasburgh
,
who
for
the
taking
in
of
the
Towne
made
sute
vnto
them
to
send
him
some
prouision
for
the
same
,
hoping
vpon
the
17.
of
May
,
to
take
it
;
and
for
that
it
is
the
Imperiall
chamber
,
the
sayd
Arch
Duke
doubted
not
,
but
that
the
Counsell
of
the
Citie
of
Strasburgh
,
would
not
spare
to
stretch
out
their
meanes
to
helpe
him
,
where
vpon
the
sayd
Counsell
taking
no
speedy
resolution
,
but
rather
for
a
while
consulted
what
they
should
doe
,
sent
some
powder
,
bullets
,
and
prouant
vnto
him
.
But
not
long
after
,
newes
was
brought
that
Fredericke
King
of
Bohemia
,
and
the
Earle
of
Mansfield
with
their
Armie
were
not
farre
from
Hagenaw
,
and
that
1000.
crabaten
most
cuirassers
,
that
were
sent
by
the
Arch
Duke
to
stop
Mansfields
passage
,
were
set
vpon
and
fought
with
all
by
Colonell
Ouertront
,
in
which
fight
500.
of
them
were
slaine
,
many
taken
prisoners
,
and
the
rest
scattered
and
dispersed
abroad
.
And
vpon
the
17.
day
of
May
in
the
euening
,
some
of
them
that
fled
,
got
to
Leopoldus
Campe
,
and
certified
him
thereof
,
counselling
him
to
make
preparation
to
fly
away
,
whereupon
he
presently
set
fire
on
his
Tents
,
and
so
went
away
,
leauing
the
Towne
at
libertie
againe
.
But
the
Earle
of
Mansfield
,
with
all
speede
and
diligence
with
10000.
men
,
followed
him
,
and
as
many
of
his
souldiers
as
he
could
get
,
he
slew
,
and
dispersing
Leopoldus
Armie
tooke
from
him
great
store
of
powder
,
bullets
,
pillage
:
and
some
prouant
.
And
vpon
the
18.
and
19.
of
May
the
sayd
Earle
of
Mansfield
pursuing
the
chase
,
marched
further
towards
Trusenheim
,
where
Leopoldus
souldiers
had
cast
vp
a
sconse
vpon
the
Rhin
,
and
had
fortified
the
same
,
wherin
many
of
the
sayd
souldiers
had
saued
themselues
,
to
the
number
of
2000.
men
,
and
had
prepared
boates
ready
,
if
they
were
assailed
,
to
set
them
ouer
the
Rhin
,
but
Mansfield
enclosed
them
round
about
,
and
cutting
of
the
boates
,
and
carrying
them
away
,
gaue
them
an
alarme
,
and
entring
in
vpon
them
,
slew
them
all
,
and
therein
found
great
store
of
bootie
,
of
the
which
euery
souldier
was
suffered
to
take
whatsoeuer
he
could
for
himselfe
.
After
that
vpon
the
20.
of
May
many
of
Mansfields
souldiers
marched
along
by
Strasburgh
,
to
ouerrun
all
the
Countrie
of
Elsas
,
and
all
those
places
that
Leopoldus
had
taken
in
,
which
put
Leopoldus
souldiers
in
such
a
feare
that
they
knew
not
where
to
stay
,
nor
to
hide
themselues
,
and
if
it
had
not
beene
for
a
bridge
that
was
broken
downe
,
whereby
Colonell
Ouertr●nt
came
halfe
an
houre
to
late
,
he
had
taken
Leopoldus
himselfe
,
the
King
of
Bohemia
went
personally
to
goe
into
Strasburgh
,
from
whence
Leopoldus
messengers
much
grieued
,
road
hastily
away
,
and
what
soeuer
they
had
obtained
of
the
Towne
,
Mansfield
had
the
most
part
thereof
.
Touching
the
Marquis
of
Doerlach
his
ouerthrow
was
not
so
great
,
as
it
was
thought
to
haue
beene
,
who
with
the
first
is
to
enter
into
the
field
againe
with
ten
thousand
men
.
It
is
sayd
,
that
the
Duke
of
Bauaria
wrote
vnto
him
,
to
make
good
his
losses
,
and
to
giue
him
all
againe
that
was
taken
from
him
,
if
hee
would
leaue
the
field
,
and
discharge
his
souldiers
;
but
hee
roundly
and
roughly
refused
to
doe
so
,
and
for
answer
sent
him
word
,
that
he
hoped
by
Armes
to
recouer
his
losses
againe
.
Letters
of
the
21.
also
certifie
,
That
after
Leopoldus
Colonels
and
Souldiers
vnderstood
,
that
Mansfields
Armie
still
marched
vpward
,
and
behaued
themselues
so
valiantly
,
and
with
such
courage
against
them
,
they
would
not
stay
for
him
,
but
retired
in
flight
to
Elsas
,
Sabren
,
Moltheim
and
Dacksteim
;
but
their
carriage
,
waggons
and
women
,
were
all
left
behinde
them
,
which
Mansfield
set
vpon
,
and
ransacking
them
,
tooke
many
chaines
of
gold
and
jewells
from
them
,
but
did
no
hurt
to
the
women
,
but
tooke
their
quarter
from
them
,
and
there
stayed
.
Other
Letters
of
the
22.
certifie
,
That
the
same
day
six
cornets
of
Leopoldus
horsemen
came
to
Mitlehinsbergen
,
that
had
conuoyed
their
Colonell
Morder
,
but
as
then
hee
was
not
personally
with
them
:
men
wondered
that
Mansfield
had
not
set
on
them
,
they
said
,
that
in
the
space
of
three
dayes
,
they
had
neyther
eaten
nor
seene
any
bread
,
and
that
they
had
saued
themselues
heere
and
there
in
the
woods
,
and
for
a
time
got
fother
from
the
said
Towne
,
and
after
that
went
to
Strasburgh
,
being
not
farre
from
thence
,
where
staying
about
the
length
of
a
great
peece
of
Ordinance
shot
,
without
the
Towne
,
they
sent
a
Trumpet
to
offer
their
seruice
vnto
them
,
but
the
magistrates
thanked
them
,
and
made
them
answere
,
that
they
had
no
need
of
horsemen
,
whereupon
they
intreated
the
Magistrates
,
that
they
might
be
permitted
(
if
any
of
Mansfields
colonells
were
in
the
Towne
)
to
offer
their
seruice
vnto
them
,
and
so
to
yeelde
themselues
vnto
him
,
which
they
graunted
.
But
Colonell
Ouertront
with
his
brother
and
cousen
that
then
were
there
,
hearing
thereof
,
rode
presently
vnto
them
,
with
certaine
horsemen
,
and
entertaining
them
with
a
friendly
countenance
,
asked
them
why
they
would
no
more
serue
their
Lord
,
they
tolde
him
,
that
they
had
not
receiued
any
money
in
twelue
or
eighteene
moneths
,
as
also
,
that
their
Colonell
had
left
them
,
and
that
therefore
they
were
discharged
of
their
oathes
,
and
prayed
that
they
might
bee
entertained
in
Mansfields
Army
.
The
Duke
of
Saxon
in
the
meane
time
came
to
disswade
those
horse
,
when
they
were
on
the
poynt
of
changing
their
Spanish
Cosaques
,
&
so
was
taken
prisoner
:
he
is
of
the
house
of
Saxen
,
Lawenberg
,
his
grandfather
was
he
that
was
depriued
of
the
Electorate
;
hee
pretends
himselfe
to
be
no
lawfull
prisoner
,
hauing
quitted
a
Regiment
hee
had
in
Hungarie
,
about
seuen
moneths
since
,
that
hee
was
at
Strasburgh
,
in
expectation
of
being
receiued
into
the
French
Kings
seruice
.
That
hee
came
out
of
the
Port
of
Strasburgh
to
speake
with
a
Captaine
of
his
brothers
Regiment
,
to
reserue
himselfe
for
Fraunce
if
the
Regiment
disbanded
.
His
Brother
is
in
Bohemia
,
where
hee
hath
two
other
Regiments
,
one
of
horse
and
another
of
foote
.
But
Ouertrant
alleadgeth
that
he
is
in
Leopoldus
seruice
,
and
came
out
to
disswade
the
Regiment
from
disbanding
,
and
that
hee
clapt
betweene
him
and
the
Port.
The
Duke
saith
within
the
Centrie
,
but
without
the
Turne
pike
.
What
King
Fredericke
will
doe
with
him
,
wee
shall
hereafter
heare
.
The
said
6
Coronets
of
horsmen
said
,
that
the
next
day
,
5
Coronets
of
Cratische
horsemen
,
and
a
regiment
of
footemen
more
would
also
yeeld
vnto
Mansfield
,
and
enter
into
pay
with
him
.
It
is
thought
the
whole
army
will
rise
and
march
towards
Elsus
Saberen
,
Moltisheim
,
Dacstein
and
other
places
,
for
that
the
said
townes
haue
want
of
Munition
and
prouant
,
because
they
were
forced
to
send
it
all
to
the
campe
before
Hagenaw
:
it
is
dangerous
trauelling
in
these
parts
round
about
:
and
it
is
to
be
feared
that
all
Flsas
will
yeeld
,
or
forcibly
be
brought
vnder
King
Fredericks
command
.
The
Archduke
Leopoldus
saued
himselfe
in
Freiburge
.
Further
,
letters
of
the
22
of
May
certifie
,
that
thereabouts
they
haue
strengthened
themselues
with
a
few
footmen
that
fled
away
from
Hagenaw
,
with
5
field
peeces
,
and
in
great
danger
;
for
the
Marquis
of
Durlach
who
with
7000
foote
and
2000
horsemen
is
entred
againe
into
the
field
,
and
hauing
discharged
and
paid
all
his
men
,
hath
again
entertained
them
in
King
Fredericks
name
.
The
relieuing
and
beating
away
of
the
army
before
Hagenaw
,
is
confirmed
by
other
letters
:
they
within
the
towne
could
not
haue
holden
out
aboue
2
dayes
longer
:
the
Archduke
Leopoldus
in
his
retraite
lost
a
great
peece
of
ordinance
,
26
hundred
weight
of
pouder
,
great
store
of
munition
,
bullets
&
match
,
as
also
all
his
cariage
,
and
500
men
that
were
slaine
,
the
rest
that
saued
themselues
in
the
flight
,
went
to
Litchtnaw
,
and
further
vpward
to
Wilsteden
,
&
are
gone
ouer
the
Rhine
,
&
in
the
ditches
about
the
suburbes
,
while
the
garison
in
Hagenaw
valiantly
defended
themselues
:
many
of
Leopoldus
souldiers
were
staine
in
the
approch
.
And
newes
is
now
come
that
Wasenaw
,
Colonell
Crats
,
with
6
cornets
of
horsemen
&
2
regiments
of
footmen
,
haue
left
Leopoldus
,
&
are
falne
to
Mansfields
side
,
and
that
foure
cornets
of
horsemen
more
&
a
regiment
of
footmen
would
doe
the
like
.
An
extract
of
a
letter
sent
from
Hagenaw
,
dated
the
19
of
May
,
1622.
The
17
of
May
the
Earle
of
Mansfield
came
before
Hagenaw
,
to
release
the
towne
from
the
siege
that
was
laid
about
it
by
the
Archduke
Leopoldus
;
and
therefore
the
said
Archduke
had
beaten
downe
the
bridge
ouer
the
water
to
hinder
the
enemies
approch
;
but
they
within
in
the
space
of
three
houres
repaired
it
againe
:
but
when
the
Archduke
vnderstood
of
the
enemies
approch
with
so
great
forces
,
in
the
morning
at
6
of
the
clocke
he
left
the
towne
,
&
in
great
confusion
fled
away
,
leauing
behind
him
4000
loaues
of
bread
&
good
store
of
wine
&
all
other
prouision
.
Mansfields
horsemen
set
upon
the
Leopoldians
,
&
kild
all
they
could
find
,
and
tooke
much
booty
from
them
,
one
waggon
being
laden
full
of
bandoleers
for
peeces
.
The
18
of
May
Mansfields
souldiers
went
to
Buswild
a
mile
from
Hagenaw
,
wherein
was
60
souldiers
that
yeelded
unto
them
,
there
they
found
all
maner
of
munition
&
a
great
peece
of
Ordinance
,
some
peeces
of
Ordinance
were
sunke
,
and
Mansfields
souldiers
were
before
Cotten
,
&
as
it
is
said
haue
taken
it
,
&
pursued
after
Leopoldus
souldiers
,
and
some
of
the
said
Leopoldus
souldiers
themselues
did
robbe
and
ransacke
many
of
his
waggons
,
and
tooke
what
they
could
cary
away
,
the
rest
they
left
for
Mansfield
.
An
extract
out
of
a
letter
sent
from
Frankfor●●
the
29
of
May
,
1622.
That
which
was
last
written
touching
the
breaking
vp
of
the
siege
before
the
towne
of
Hagenaw
,
and
the
ouerthrow
of
Leopoldus
,
is
confirmed
out
of
Elsas
and
Strasburch
,
after
that
the
towne
of
Hagenaw
was
besieged
by
Leopoldus
with
an
army
of
12000
men
horse
and
foote
,
and
the
same
had
by
him
bin
battered
eight
dayes
together
:
they
within
issued
so
valiantly
out
,
and
fought
so
couragiously
within
,
that
before
it
an
Italian
Colonell
and
a
Lieutenant
Colonell
,
called
Fels
were
taken
prisoners
,
who
were
much
fauoured
by
Leopoldus
,
and
a
1000
men
were
slaine
by
them
,
as
also
the
1000
Crabaten
that
the
said
Archduke
sent
to
the
towne
of
Weissenburg
to
take
it
,
were
also
by
the
Earle
of
Mansfield
most
part
slaine
and
dispersed
,
and
yet
dayly
some
of
them
are
kild
by
the
pesants
.
The
King
of
Bohemia
with
the
Earle
of
Mansfield
and
15000
horse
and
foote
coming
to
Hagenaw
,
the
Leopoldians
were
already
fled
,
leauing
all
their
cariage
and
waggons
with
munition
behind
them
,
and
here
and
there
saued
themselues
,
as
they
best
could
doe
it
:
but
the
Colonels
Ouertr●nt
and
M●gen
●nderstanding
they
were
fled
,
presently
followed
after
them
with
their
horsemen
,
and
kild
many
of
them
:
which
pursuite
continued
for
the
space
of
three
dayes
till
Leopoldus
souldiers
were
driuen
further
away
:
and
in
Trusen
hey●i●●
wood
the
said
Earle
of
Mansfield
enclosed
16
companies
of
Italian
horsemen
that
could
not
get
out
;
how
they
sped
,
it
is
yet
no●
certainly
knowne
,
but
it
is
to
be
feared
that
few
of
them
would
escape
away
.
At
Bisweyld
60
of
them
also
saued
themselues
in
the
castle
;
with
those
that
were
Dutch
and
Netherlanders
;
good
quarter
was
holden
,
but
the
Spaniards
and
Wallons
were
all
slaine
,
for
amongst
them
they
held
no
quarter
:
in
that
castle
they
found
460
weight
of
powder
,
and
at
Brunbt
300
weight
of
powder
.
Thus
Leopoldus
souldiers
were
scattered
abroad
,
and
those
that
were
not
slaine
fell
from
him
,
as
already
many
cornets
of
horse
and
footmen
are
entertained
by
Mansfield
,
and
are
entred
into
pay
.
It
is
saids

An
abstract
of
a
letter
written
from
Hessen
the
22

May
,
1622.
It
is
reported
that
the
Spaniards
and
Bauarians
intending
to
set
upon
the
towne
of
Paderborme
,
from
whence
the
Duke
of
Brunswick
was

;
the
said
Duke
thereupon
returned
backe
againe
,
and
as
wee
heare
hath
fought
with
them
,
where
betweene
them
there
was
a
great
fight
,
wherein
many
on
both
sides
were
slaine
,
and
that
the
Duke
of
Brunswick
had
the
victorie
,
the
certaintie
whereof
is
daily
expected
:
it
is
said
that
he
is
gone
with
certaine
thousand
men
towards
the
Palatinate
,
and
hath
left
good
garisons
in
Lipstat
and
Soest
.
As
also
that
upon
the
16
of
May

said
Duke
going
from
Paterborm
with
his
army
of
20000
men

,
and
hauing

,
the
Earle
Stirom
with
his

hauing
the
Rereward
,
being
wartered
at
Salts
Cotten
,
the
Spaniards
&
Bauarians
the
night
before
went
thither
and
made
an
alarme
,
setting
upon
the
Rereward
,
&
thought
to
take
their
cariage
;
but
the
Duke
presently
relieuing
them
,
kild
some
of
the
Spaniards
and
Bauarians
,
and
tooke
some
prisoners
.
And
since
we
heard
that
the
Elector
of
Colen
and
the
Baron
of
Anholt
had
an
intent
to
set
upon
the
Duke
of
Brunswick
as
he
marched
forward
,
and
to
that
end
sent
16
companies
of
horsemen
and
some
foote
to
set
upon
his
Rereward
;
Which
the
Duke
understanding
,
turned
back
againe
,
and
met
with
the
enemy
,
hauing
eight
peeces
of
Ordinance
with
him
,
whereupon
the
enemie
furiously
set
upon
him
;
and
he
causing
his
greatest
troupes
with
the
peeces
to
retire
,
presently
made
a
lane
,
and
gaue
fire
to
his
Ordinance
,
and
and
therewith
put
his
enemies
in
such
a
feare
,
that
they
fled
away
,
whom
he
o●
all
sides
pursued
,
and
slue
three
cornets
of
horse
,
and
eight
companies
of
their
footmen
,
which
done
he
followed
on

.
And
now
we
are

that
the
said
Duke
of
Brunswick
hath
bin
at
Hildesheim
belonging
to
the
Bishop
of
Colen
,
and
hath
gotten
2000
weeks
Dollers
of
the
Capiall
,
&
as
much
from
the
Iewes
there
,
for
that
they
hauing
taken
vp
the
good
mony
in
the
country
of
Brunswik
,
caused
such
bad
mony
to
be
minted
,
that
thereby
great
complaints
and
hurt
ensued
.
And
after
that

,
these

A
Letter
from
Mainheim
,
dated
the
24.
of
May
.
1622.
MY
last
Letter
was
on
the
14.
of
May
,
in
which
I
gaue
you
to
vnderstand
of
the
Archduke
Leopoldus
his
shamefull
retreate
from
Hagenaw
and
of
his
losse
there
of
Munition
especially
.
The
King
and
Count
Mansfield
marched
downe
againe
to
Spires
,
there
the
Marquesse
of
Baden
met
them
,
whereupon
Consultation
it
was
concluded
,
that
the
King
&
Count
Mansfield
should
passe
ouer
the
Rhine
and
Necker
before
at
this
Towne
as
they
did
the
day
before
yesterday
,
and
will
be
this
night
in
the
Land
of
Darmestat
,
if
God
permit
.
And
the
Marquesse
of
Baden
is
passed
the
Rhine
yesterday
as
was
agreed
at
Germersheim
,
and
to
morrow
will
repasse
it
heere
againe
with
his
Army
,
and
follow
the
King
:
which
seperation
was
a
bolde
and
braue
Aduenture
,
yet
is
like
to
speed
well
as
such
doe
often
in
Warre
,
for
Don
Gousa
hath
sent
25.
Coronets
of
Cauallery
to
Monsieur
Tilly
,
who
lyeth
still
about
Heydelburgh
as
farr
as
we
heare
,
and
will
not
meddle
with
the
Coun●
Mansfield
and
the
Marques
of
Baden
,
if
they
be
once
ioyned
,
seeing
it
appeares
that
Cordou●
will
not
stirre
out
of
his
Garrisons
with
his
Infantry
.
But
I
would
the
Marques
were
with
the
King
,
hee
for
his
person
behaued
himselfe
exceeding
brauely
,
as
I
heare
since
from
the
mouthes
of
his
Enemies
,
and
so
did
his
two
younger
Sonnes
also
,
who
are
now
also
with
him
,
besides
the
losse
of
all
his
Baggage
,
Artillery
and
Munition
,
his
men
flung
away
their
Armes
in
their
flight
,
but
he
hath
furnished
them
againe
,
by
disarming
his
Subiects
.
The
Duke
of
Brunswicke
is
on
foot
,
and
like
to
goe
to
Bauaria
rather
then
come
hither
as
I
heare
,
and
is
feared
by
the
way
,
he
takes
thorow
the
Land
of
Algsfield
,
to
spare
which
he
hath
bin
offered
100.
Thousand
Dollers
,
but
would
haue
50.
Thousand
more
.
The
Duke
of
Bauaria
is
going
I
heare
to
forme
a
Campe
about
Dunaner●
to
resist
him
,
and
the
Elector
of
Saxon
is
drawing
his
Forces
together
in
Turning
,
to
the
same
end
also
as
it
is
thought
,
but
hee
will
make
his
part
good
,
vnlesse
Monsieur
Tilly
goe
from
hence
to
helpe
him
,
and
if
hee
doe
,
the
Priests
and
Shauelings
and
their
helpers
are
like
to
goe
to
wracke
.
It
is
reported
that
the
Towne
of
Collen
before
this
,
did
ayde
Spinola
with
50.
thousand
Dollers
,
and
that
now
also
the
Hollanders
will
haue
asmuch
of
the
same
Towne
,
what
will
ensue
thereof
we
shall
heare
.
