The letter summary:

... [Stockholm] den 26 Juni 1652. Ulfeld låtsar ej hafva pengar. — Ebbe Ulfeld bröt ett ben. — ... Man bad Kristina förbjuda tryckningen af Ulfelds apologi.

With modernised spelling:

... [Stockholm] den 26 juni 1652. Ulfeldt låtsar ej hava pengar. — Ebbe Ulfeldt bröt ett ben. — ... Man bad Kristina förbjuda tryckningen av Ulfeldts apologi.

English translation (my own):

... Stockholm, June 26, 1652. Ulfeldt pretends not to have money. —Ebbe Ulfeldt broke a leg. — ... Kristina was asked to forbid the printing of Ulfeldt's apologia.
