AN ACCOUNT Of the BURNING of Haure de Grace, By Their Majesty's FLEET under the Command of My Lord BERKLEY. BY an Express arrived last Night at Six a Clock from my Lord Berkly, we have received the following Account, dated off of Haure de Grace at Five a Clock in the Afternoon, July the 18th. 1694. My Lord Berkley having laid the Town of Deipe into Athes by the many Bombs which he threw into it, insomuch that there is not a House standing, weighed Anchor on the 14th. and directed his Course towards the Mouth of the River Seine, where we arrived the 16th. It was thought fit in the Council of War to Bombard Haure de Grace, and accordingly the next Morning, our Bombing Vessels drew near the Place, and Played their Bombs into it with so good an effect, that the Town was set on Fire in several Places; we continued this Morning, and by the help of a High Wind which blows since break of day, the Town, as far as we can judge, is all in Flames. The Enemy has made a great Fire upon us from their Bastions and Citadel, both with their Canon and Bombs, but with small Success, saving only that one of their Bombs has sunk one of our Bombing Vessels, in which was Captain Silver, who has been saved, but with the misfortune of having one of his Legs broken off. My Lord Berkley intends to continue here till the Town is all in ashes; and that the Enemy may not quench the Fire, we continue to play our Bombs upon the Place, and upon the Citadel. ADVERTISEMENTS.
