in Hungary continues: they have il-trcated Noble
men and their Officers, plundered the castles of
Counts Iupory and Caski, and in some instances /
have been guilty of great cruetics. In order to
check the instruction of the Peasantry, regi-
ments of infantry have been sent from Gacia
and three others ordered from this city.
