Finck, I believe, will keep an eye on him," and secure Berlin from attempts of his. "This is all I can say. I shall encamp at Wulkow. I am very tired. For six nights I have not closed an eye. Farewell.
Finck is due in two days, not here at Lebus precisely, but at another place appointed; Finck will raise him to 50,000; and then business can begin! About Reitwein, between this and Custrin, there arrangements are proceeding, by no means of a showy sort.
Sunday Evening, 9th September, General Finck, with his new 6,000, hastening on to join Wunsch for relief of Dresden, had got to Grossenhayn; and was putting up his tents, when the Outposts brought him in an Austrian Officer, who had come with a Trumpeter inquiring for the General.
