Printed for T. Wright 1642. TRUE INTELLIGENCE from IRELAND Being the Copie of a Letter from Captain Courtney at Dublin to M. Snow one of the Adventurers for Ireland Dated the 10. of November 1642. SIR WIth grief I have considered your last Letter and no marvell of such distractions in the Kingdome when as the Ports are opened to receive those rebels and traitors which passe from hence to His Majesty and as by your Letters and Pamphlets of newes they are received and made chiefe Commanders of His Majesties Army there is as I conceive a great default in the searchers of Plymouth Bristoll and Mineard which suffer any to passe without examination or otherwise so that the Kingdome is in a desperate condition and lies at the brink of destruction Oneale the great Rebell hath of late beene very sick and we all think he will hardly recover it for what with his wound in his side at Felles siege and sicknesse together he lies desperately sick We often heare from him th●● he is well recovered but by his ragged souldiers which we take daily they have confessed that he cannot live and in case he should die the young Makarkey shall be made Generall over the whole Kingdome what souldiers we take we dare not keep them for feare of infection for the plague is very much disperst among them hundreds die at a time We have had it likewise amongst our souldiers but we received it first from the Rebels and captives which we took but we hope the worst is past for there dieth not above 100. a week and some weeks lesse which is but a moitie of those hat die of the rebels Sir about 4. dayes before the date of my Letter wee advanced our Forces towards Felles where we found some of the Irish Army drinking of carowses and healths to the King of Spaine their supposed Protector but in the midst of their jollity our Army fell upon them and slew 200. whereupon a greater party of the Rebels appeared and assaulted us and there was a stout fight on both sides laying aside pikes muskets and fighting only with our swords so that our men had slaine and wounded most of them had not Colonell Bourne with a fresh supply of 600. come in the interim Neverthelesse our souldiers made good their parts and came off with the losse of 100. at the most We brought from them 1000. cowes besides horse and sheep and great store of other pillage that was freely given to the souldiers for their pains which very much incourageth them Oneal his souldiers are most lamentable distressed poore people hardly sufficient to cloath their nakednesse We were much afraid of the Spanish Forces which landed at Waterford two dayes before the fight but as God would have it our souldiers carried their pillage quite away before they came to assist Colonell Bourne who was chiefe Commander amongst the Rebels in that fight We have great hopes of Captaine Bartlet for hitherto he hath done very good service and this instant day he took a Dunkirk ship full of ammunition and 40. Irish Commanders in it and immediately brought them to Barannakilly they were driven with a tempest upon our coasts for it appeared by their examination that they intended to have landed at Tingmouth Dartmouth or some such like creek in the West parts of England I cannot but admire at a Merchants ship of Bristoll which lately anchored at Crockhaven by reason of tempestuous weather the Captain and Master of the ship fearing lest the rebels would sink her invited the chiefest rebels of the towne aboard and gave them royall entertainment in hopes to have merchandize for their Tobacco they had fair promises protested aboard but when the rebels got the Captain Master ashore they vowed to hang them if they commanded not the rest of the Mariners to come ashore and leave their ship and goods amongst them The Captain and Master escaped with their lives though it were not a penniworth of hurt if the rebels had hanged them in earnest for they needed not to h●zzard ship or goods nor were they constrained to go ashore but they might have caried away or curbed the rebels at their pleasure Sir Charles Vavasour is worthy of honour and very forward in any designe he hath lately been at Kelly and Barry and although the townes have been besieged yet with lesse then 500. he raised the siege and enforced them to take their bulwarks for their refuge and between their works and sconces in the trenches he spied at least 200. of the rebels dead who died of the sicknesse and lay on the ground like dead dogs he commanded his souldiers not to touch any of them which they all obeyed yet he departed not empty for his souldiers tooke 7. or 800. sheep besides cowes and hogs besides other spoile by fire which he did before he departed he took 12. Commanders and coupled them in chaines and brought them unto Dublin I will not trouble you with superfluous matter onely this our City of Dublin is at great expence for the paiment of souldiers and is strongly fortified within and without being double chained in every crosse street and 1000. armed men every night equally distributed to the Courts of Guard neverthelesse the rebels affront us to the very ports of the city but I hope God in his good time will abate the pride of those his enemies asswage thei● malice and confound their divellish devices unto which I shall ever say Amen Dublin Novemb 10. 1642.
