On 22 May, Hans Karl von Winterfeldt, a good judge of character, reported to the king: "Certainly, at Hohenfriedberg, on the 4 June, he [Seydlitz] captured the Saxon general von Schlichting personally, after he had cut the reins from him."
After Frederick concluded the peace on the 25 December 1748, Seydlitz returned with his squadron to Trebnitz.
