redoubts, which proved very welcome, as the soldiers had been exposed to a heavy rain for several days. After forcing the lines, contributions were levied on the territory subject to France, as far as Lisle: and the Duke of Wirtemberg was so well pleased with the conduct of the TENTH, that he made a donation of a ducat to each man, and the same to the men of the other regiments engaged in forcing the lines. While the TENTH were levying contributions, the main army under King William was defeated at Landen; after this disaster the regiment was ordered to join the army, but it was not engaged in any service of importance, and in October it marched into winter-quarters at Bruges. On the 29th of October, the Earl of Bath was succeeded in the colonelcy by his nephew, Lieut.-Colonel Sir Beville Granville. [Sidenote: 1694] Leaving Bruges in May, 1694, the regiment pitched its tents near Ghent. It served the campaign of that year in Brigadier-General Stewart's brigade, in the division commanded by Major-General Sir Henry Bellasis; and after taking part in several operations, and performing many long and toilsome marches, it proceeded into quarters at the pleasant town of Malines. [Sidenote: 1695] Early in the spring of 1695, the French commenced some new works between the Lys and the Scheldt, when five hundred men of the TENTH were withdrawn from Malines in the expectation of taking part in an attempt to interrupt the enemy's proceedings; but this enterprise was laid aside, and the regiment encamped at Marykirk until the army took the field, when it was joined by the men left in quarters. The TENTH were subsequently detached to Dixmude, in West Flanders; and they were one of the corps which pitched their tents before the _Kenoque_, a fortress at the junction of the Loo and Dixmude canals, where the French had a garrison. On the 9th of June, the grenadiers of the TENTH were engaged in driving the French from the entrenchments and houses near the Loo canal. A redoubt was afterwards taken, and a lodgment effected on the works at the bridge; in which service the regiment had several men killed and wounded. This enterprise was only designed as a diversion to favour the operations of the main army, and when King William had besieged the strong fortress of _Namur_, the regiment traversed the country to the banks of the Lys, and joined the covering army under the Prince of Vaudemont. When Marshal Villeroy advanced, with a force of very superior numbers, to attack the covering army, the Prince of Vaudemont retreated to Ghent, and during this retrograde movement, the commanding officer of the TENTH, Lieut.-Colonel Sydney Godolphin, and a serjeant and twelve men, resting at a house on the road too long, were made prisoners.
