<HEAD>AN ACCOUNT Of the BURNING of Havre de Grace, By Their Maje&s;ties FLEET under the Command of My Lord BERKLEY.</HEAD>
<P>BY an Expre&s;s arrived la&s;t Night at Six a Clock from my Lord <HI>Berkly,</HI> we have received the following Account, dated off of <HI>Havre de Grace</HI> at Five a Clock in the Afternoon, <HI>July</HI> the 18th. 1694.</P>
<P>My Lord <HI>Berkley</HI> having laid the Town of <HI>Deipe</HI> into Athes by the many Bombs which he threw into it, in&s;omuch that there is not a Hou&s;e &s;tanding, weighed Anchor on the 14th. and directed his Cour&s;e towards the Mouth of the River <HI>Seine,</HI> where we arrived the 16th. It was thought fit in the Coun|cil of War to Bombard <HI>Havre de Grace,</HI> and accordingly the next Morning, our Bombing Ve&s;&s;els drew near the Place, and Played their Bombs into it with &s;o good an effect, that the Town was &s;et on Fire in &s;everal Places; we continued this Morning, and by the help of a High Wind which blows &s;ince break of day, the Town, as far as we can judge, is all in Flames.</P>
<P>The Enemy has made a great Fire upon us from their Ba&s;tions and Cita|del, both with their Canon and Bombs, but with &s;mall Succe&s;s, &s;aving only that one of their Bombs has &s;unk one of our Bombing Ve&s;&s;els, in which was <HI>Captain Silver,</HI> who has been &s;aved, but with the misfortune of having one of his Legs broken off.</P>
<P>My Lord <HI>Berkley</HI> intends to continue here till the Town is all in a&s;hes; and that the Enemy may not quench the Fire, we continue to play our Bombs upon the Place, and upon the Citadell.</P>
