The

who

wished

and
he
would

,
but
wished
him
to
be
as
good
as
his
word
to
have
him
safely
conducted
to
Dublin
,
so
Sir
James
brought
in
all
his
provision
thinking
that
night
to

thanked
him
for

a
place
on

;
this
place

Towne
3.
myles
,
he
could
not
lye
nearer
,
for
we
had
formerly
burnt
on
that
side
of
the
water
all
the
Villages
within
that
distance
,
we
were
upon
their
quarter
by
7.
of
the
clocke
in
the
morning
,
by
that
time
we
came
neere
them
,
they
had
drawne
up
into
a
body
some
400.
within
an
old
Pinfold
,
which
they
had
prepared
with
good
sad
worke
,
brest
high
,
from
which
their
Musketiers
playd
upon
us
,
but
we
made
still
forward
towards
them
,
they
seeing
us
come
on
so
resolutely
,
left
the
worke
,
and
betooke
them
to
running
;
All
this
while
they
stood
wide
on
the
left
hand
of
them
.
some
two
Musket
shot
distant
upon
the
top
of
Hill
,
a
body
of
some
800
more
of
them
to
see
how
the
rest
sped
;
which
they
seeing
marched
away
;
we
orderly
followed
the
chase
of
the
rest
,
and
tooke
Prisoners
Art-Oge-Macmahonne
,
the
pretended
Lord
of
Moneghane
and
one
other
;
Macmahoome
killed
5.
Captaines
;
of
which
was
one
old
Capt
.
Prius
that
was
a
Rebell
in
the
last
Rebellion
,
many
orher
Gentlemen
of
quality
not
yet
knowne
of
which
we
brought
in
3.
Heads
;
and
there
was
200
killed
at
least
,
this
was
as
great
a
blow
as
ever
we
gave
them
,
when
we
had
done
we
burnt
their
quarters
,
the
foote
this
day
was
commanded
by
Lievtenant
Colonell
Byron
.
The
night
after
this
,
there
came
intelligence
that
the
house
of
Stanmin
was
left
empty
,
and
then
Bewly
the
Towne
on
the
Sea-side
that
plagued
our
shipping
as
they
came
in
,
the
Rebels
had
also
left
,
upon
our
Newes
of
the
defeate
,
whereupon
we
sent
200
Musketiers
to
Bewly
2.
houres
before
day
,
who
found
no
ressistance
but
entred
the
house
and
Town
,
and
we
keep
a
company
in
it
,
here
we
found
good
store
of
corn
,
likewise
there
was
sent
an
Ensigne
and
40.
Musketiers
to
the
house
of
Stammin
,
where
they
had
no
ressistance
but
entred
it
.
There
is
also
a
haggard
of
corne
;
Thus
it
hath
pleased
God
to
banish
our
Enemies
,
and
to
give
us
a
great
deale
of
liberty
▪
and
store
of
all
provision
,
after
a
long
and
tedious
blocking
up
,
so
that
now
we
doubt
not
but
that
a
small
number
of
men
▪
may
march
from
Dublin
hither
,
for
those
that
had
the
greatest
number
of
men
,
were
Philomy
Oneale
,
Phillip
O-Reyley
,
Col.
Mack-Brian-Macke-Mahoome
,
and
Colonel
Plunker
,
who
have
all
left
us
and
have
marcht
Northwards
,
with
the
best
pillage
of
the
Country
,
so
that
now
what
forces
there
is
betwixt
G●rmanston
and
Dublin
,
for
there
is
none
of
this
side
of
it
,
all
our
wants
now
are
Clothes
,
shooes
,
and
Stockins
for
our
men
,
and
some
money
would
not
be
unwelcomed
.
