A Letter from Feversham , Giving a True ACCOUNT Of several Persons who were Taken , being Embark'd with His MAJESTIE In a Vessel which lay in a Creek near Feversham in Kent . Dated the 12 th . of December , 1688 .

HIS Majesty having of late ( to the great dissatisfaction of the whole Kingdom ) thought it convenient , at this juncture , to withdraw Himself from White-Hall , in order , ( as is suppos'd ) to Transport Himself for some time beyond Sea , being Attended with several Gentlemen , of whom we shall proceed to give you an exact Account .

His MAJESTY , in order to Prosecute His Intention , on the Eleventh of December Imbarked Himself in a small Vessel , which lay in a Creek near Feversham , with these following Persons to Attend Him : Sir Edward Hales , Mr. Shelton , and some other Gentlemen , whose Names , as yet , we have no certain information off : But being on Board , lying for a fair Wind , to Convey them to the Place intended , were discovered , and the above Nam'd Gentlemen , who waited on His MAJESTY , were Seiz'd by a Party in behalf of the Prince of Orange ; upon which His MAJESTY thought it Convenient to omit his Passage , and countermand His Resolution to return to Town .

We have likewise an Account that Baron Jenner , Graham , and others were likewise taken at Feversham .

The Earl of Salisbury , and Mr. Hales , at Ashford .

And also , old Obediah Walker , and other Jesuits at Sittingborn ; who are now under the County Guards , in Order to the bringing of them with all convenient Speed to London .

Printed for I. H. 1688.
