[a continuation of the History of War (part of Chapter X)
serialized for the past many months]
On the 28th of November, taking a small, but well chosen
corps of horse and foot, and disengaging them from their
baggage, he arrived in two days at Fulda, where the
Wurtemburgers enjoyed themselves in full security. A feu de
joye had been ordered for that day; the troops were all in
their best cloathes; the Duke had invited all the ladies in
the town to his table, and to a ball, which he intended to
have given that very day; but the Hereditary Prince
disconcerted their measures, both of war and diversion.
