Description:

Marlborough to Harley: the duke of Savoy has much to complain of about the court of Vienna. Some new measures must be found for the war in Spain.

He encloses a letter [SP 87/2/320] from [Hans Kaspar von] Bothner, the elector of Hanover's minister at The Hague, requesting that the regiment of dragoons serving the queen and the states [general] should join him at the same rate of pay. He has written a discouraging reply [SP 87/2/321] and informed the [grand] pensionary. The emperor [Joseph I] has decided to send Count Wratislaw to the king of Sweden. Dated at camp at Meldert. ff 655-658
