A Particular RELATION OF THE Surrender of Galloway . Published by Authority . From the Camp before Galloway , July 22. 1691.

ON Sunday the 19th Instant the Army marched from Atheuree to this place . The General immediately sent a Trumpeter to my Lord Dillon , Governor of the Town , and offered him the Benefit of the Lords-Justices proclamation of the 7th , which he inclosed to him , if he would surrender it before he was obliged to Fire his Cannon . The Answer was , That Monsieur Dussone , who Commanded , was of the same Opinion with himself , and the rest of the Officers , who were resolved to defend it to the last . While it was Light , our Men made but small Advances , but at Night they Attack'd a small Fort they had made to Command a Valley between the Town and us , and immediately Beat the Irish out of it ; And hearing that Baldarock O-Donnel intended to throw himself and his Brigade into the Place that Night or the next Morning , the Tin Boats were immediately put into the Water , and Six Regiments of Foot , and Four Squadrons of Horse and Dragoons , sent over the River , and posted in the way Baldarock was to take ; so that finding no Succors could be put in on that side , he retired with his Rabble into the County of Mayo , burning and destroying all the Country as he marched . The taking this Fort , and passing the Water , so suddenly , we suppose , were the things that frighted them into a Treaty ; for on the 20th , about Ten in the Morning , the Governor desired a Safe-Conduct for some Persons he intended to send to the General to Capitulate , and in the Afternoon 3 of their Lieutenant-Colonels came out , and as many of ours went into the Town as Hostages . The Treaty lasted the rest of the day and night , they being often obliged to go back to Consult their Principals . At last it was agreed ; That on next Sunday morning at Six a Clock , the Town should be delivered to such Officers as the General should appoint , and in the mean time we should have Five Hostages for the due Performance of Articles , whereof my Lord Clanriccard is one , and all the Outworks of the Town put into our Hands ; That the Enemy should forbear to fortifie in this time , and withdraw all their Cannon from the Walls , but that we may be permitted to work and Post our selves where we will , provided we came not within 3 yards of the Wall , nor place any Cannon upon the Batteries we make . The Garison and Townsmen that remain have the Benefit of the Lords Justices Proclamation , which gives them their Estates and Liberties ; And those who have a mind to depart , are to be Conducted safe to Limerick , with their Arms , Drums Beating , &c. and Six Pieces of Cannon . They have Liberty to send to my Lord Tyrconnel , to acquaint him with what they have done , and invite him to do the same at Limerick . A French Vessel of 30 Guns sail'd out of the Harbour as we march'd hither , and two more remain still here .
