a handsome, strong, and considerable town of the United Provinces, in Zealand, and in the island of Walcheren, with a very good harbour, and a great foreign trade. It was put into the hands of Queen Elizabeth, for a pledge of their fidelity, and as a security for the money she advanced. It was taken by the British in the memorable and ill conducted expedition of 1809, and kept some months. E. Long. 32. N. Lat. 51. 26.
