A LETTER Sent from Colonel John Disbrowe , Superscribed , To the Right Honorable , the Speaker of the Parliament of this Common-wealth , These Present , at Westminster . Right Honorable ,

IT having pleased God ( I hope out of good will to these ( of late distracted ) Nations ) to bring the Parliament again to the Exercise of Their Trust , in the Government of these Nations , I thought it my Duty to Acquaint You , That I cheerfully , and with much quietness of mind , acquiesce in the Providence of God therein : And that I may take away all occasions of Jealousies of me , I shal be ready to give the Parliament any possible Assurance of my cordial and faithful Submission to Their Authority : And if I had any hand in Their late Interruption , I shall beg pardon for it of the Lord : I am sure I have no self-ends , or evil purposes in any thing wherein I have appeared . Sir , The Work of the Parliament is Great and Difficult , the Lord give You Strength and Wisedom proportionable thereunto , that such a Foundation of Settlement may be laid by You , as the Children yet unborn may have cause to Bless God for . I shall not give You farther trouble , only assure You , That notwithstanding the late unhappy differences , I shall in any capacity approve my self faithful to the Peace of the Common-wealth , and observant of the Commands of the Parliament ; and I hope upon Inquiry into the late Directions I gave the Officers of the Regiment ( lately mine ) You will find me of this temper . I will only add , That if ever hereafter there should be Occasion , none shall more cordially oppose the Common-wealth's Enemies , then ,

Decemb . 29. 1659. Right Honorable , Your very Humble Servant , John Disbrowe . Superscribed , To the Right Honorable , the Speaker of the Parliament of this Common-wealth , These Present , At Westminster .
