The veteran Robles, Seigneur de Billy, a Portuguese officer of eminent service and high military rank, was also destroyed.

Several strange and less tragical incidents occurred.

The Viscomte de Bruxelles was blown out of a boat on the Flemish side, and descended safe and, sound into another in the centre of the stream.
