A LETTER From an Officer under the Lord Lambert , giving an account of a rising at DERBY . Honoured Sir ,

SInce I saw you I have had little rest , for the Lord Lambert required me to wait upon him towards Cheshire ; and this day being at Stafford , news was brought him of a Rising in Derby ; for the quelling of which he presently ordered One hundred Dragoons , and about One hundred and fifty Horse to march for Derby , giving the command to Major Grove , and commanded me to goe with him . Away we marcht to Vtceter ( where we are now ) intending resolvedly to fall into them at Derby this night ; but while we were refreshing , a messenger came with Letters from Col. Sanders , Col. Mitchel , and Major Barton , to give an account that the business was at present ended . The beginning was thus : Yesterday divers Commissioners being busie in raising and setling the Militia , about eleven a clock Col. Charles White , with some few , came into the Town , and openly proclaimed Booths Declaration , whereupon all the town rose , shut up their shops , seased upon many of Militia horses , with shouting , Cap. Doubty turned on their side , and drew many of his new men to him , and in the midest of this Confusion , Col. Sanders came in amongst them , asking them what they would have , drew them all to the Green , where they all desired him to own their quarrel , and be their leader ; he refused , and had liberty to go Home and afterwards they drew into the Town , and moultered away , so that this morning there was not one left to appear , the active Townsmen crying Pecavy ; and thus our journey is stopt and we are upon returning , save one Troop goes forward thither :

Now for Chester , this was the last News , at seven a clock this day to the Lord Lambert : That the Enemies numbers doe something lessen . We have had Eighteen Troopes in their teethes these three daies , but can doe little for want of our Foot ; but we shall quickly now , for they lay the last night at Stafford : and untill they come up , for conveniency of provision and quarters , our Brigade of Horse lye about Drayton . They doe make much of Leverpoole , Col. Ireland is Governour , T is thought some of their hot spirits begin now to coole , they will ere long be lapt closer together . I am both weary and in haste . I remaine

Yours to serve you S. S. Utceter , August 13. three a clock .
