The manuscript document states that it has been necessary to send two cavalry squadrons from the province of Scania to Pommern together with other people under General Carl Gustaf Wrangel, to the main army in Germany, and that following the peace treaty the entire army will have left Scania by the 23rd September. The document continues to give instructions that the vessels and boats which were previously sent to Pommern, and remained there during the summer, under the command of the cavalry's Commander-in-Chief, shall sail to Ystad and Landskrona without delay, also explaining that there is a shortage of boats to transport the cavalry in any other way and stressing the importance of timeliness in the shipment of the cavalry.
