The mutuall joyes of the King Parliament and Subjects THe sadnesse and disasterousnesse of the times the continuall harsh tone of invective persons and the present distresses of all men have a long time looked for hoped and expected a removall of these our grievances being often begunne but more often hindred there never springing one good and profitable herbe in this garden of England but there as suddenly arises many twining weeds to choake it sith that our disconsolate cares have beene so invoked to provide for resistance of these evils how welcome and acceptable would the newes of a remedy be the City that hath so long beene troubled frighted and perturbed with civill commotions and inexpressible dangers how would it shew forth the garlands of good will the plumes of peace and ensigne of loyalty upon so happy an alteration How would the Protestant rejoyce and bee as it were involved in gladnesse to see the Papists and their schismaticall adherents either converted or ashamed when as Church government might bee respected and God praised for love and not for feare Such is the newes I now relate so happy as it goes beyond expression to nominate it and as reall as it seemes happy Long have these our griefes beene multiplyed by his Majesties disagreeing with the Parliament by the perswasions of some who were but seeming wel wishers to the State to change these occasions of sorrow into a happy estate his Majesty hath been since graciously pleased to unite himselfe with them for the setling of a perfect peace expressing himselfe as followeth That whereas the perturbance of the times had proved grievous and burdensome unto him in respect of the quotidiall commotions arising through his non-residence with them at London his Majesty was resolved for a speedy returne as also that his hopes of and concerning the gracious message sent the twentieth of Ianuary last past should have produced some such effect as by offering what was fit on their parts to doe as also for his Majesty to grant might beget a mutuall confidence in each other his Majesty therefore desired that these his good hopes might not be frustrated and so his endeavours prove to no purpose but rather that they would with sedulous diligence labour to strengthen and corroborate then any way to debilitate or weaken the same reciprocall conjunction or mutuall laborious cooperation And for as much as this his Majesties Kingdome of England was very much distressed and in continuall feare in respect that the Ports and chiefe fortresses towards the sea coasts were unfortified and so not able to make resistance against any invasion they having manifested as much unto his Majesty hee desired that they would speedily set about and expeditiously contrive a remedy and he in that as in all other reasonable motions as far as it might stand with his honour would immutually joine in assistance towards the rectifying of the same As for the Petitions of severall Counties delivered to the Parliament for the reliefe of these and other such like grievances of this Kingdome most especially concerning the grounds of Protestant Religion which hath been abused and little set by since the Bishops introducing and bringing in of Papisticall ceremonies which sticks much in the consciences of many nay all true Protestants his Majesty was graciously pleased to desire and importune a reformation of the same thereby to gain his subjects love and procure the perpetuall peace of his Kingdome It was the refore ordered by the House of Commons as concerning Wren and the other Bishops whom they had searched and found deep delinquents in and against the benefit of the State that seeing they were found guilty and the matter of so high consequence concerning their censure they being the Metropolitans of the Church and principall Clergy of the Kingdome that they should be delivered over to the upper House to receive sentence frōm them as concerning their misdemeanours whereupon they resolved a speedy conclusion the Parliament highly applauding and commending the Communalty of the severall Counties petitioning them unto for their indulgent care for the preservation and safety of his Majesties Royall person Realmes and Parliamentary proceedings who with the fervency of zeale and affection regreeted them with all humility giving them most humble thankes for their obsequious care of such as they were who accounted themselves but as their vassalls that were ready to spend both life limbe estate liberty and what not to shew their respectfull obeisance to such an honourable Assembly A true Relation of a suddaine muteny arising amongst the rebells in Ireland at Bravers within the Province of Munster wherein Sergeant Major Oneale was sore hurt Captaine Redmond Sartwell Captain Thurlough King Captain Carley with divers Officers and 300. souldiers slaine As also their flight from thence upon the comming of Captaine Pollard and some Scotch regements against them with the losse of the Towne and all their ammunition to our English forces VPon the first of February Anno Dom. 2642. the Rebells having lately apprehended som eighteene Protestants in the towne of Oggersney in the County of Munster carried them before the Lord Corton who was chosen Lieutenant Generall of their horse to be examined as concerning their Religion which they boldly averred to be the Protestant faith in which they resolved to live and dye whereupon they were forthwith committed to prison where they lay in a dungeon enduring great misery through the abuse of the souldiery that delighted in nothing more then in tormenting them the principall of all these Protestants was Sir Edward Pellam who had a sonne in law being a recusant eldest Captaine of a horse troope in the regiment belonging to the Lord Autrim who very earnestly desired of the Lord Corton Oneale and the residue of the councell of warre sitting about that occasion that he might stand as baile for his fathers appearance moving it with such zeale and earnest ●ff●ction towards his father that he had almost obtained his request untill that one Dennis Carley Sergeant Major to the said regiment and Captaine Carley his nephew with divers other enemies to the Protestants perswaded the contrary alledging that being an enemy to their Religion and present proceeding it might be a meanes to his escape and the other his sonne who pleaded for him likewise who sh●wed very little affection to the Church of Rome to plead so much for a hereticke though he had beene his owne father therefore they desired that he might likewise be examined unlesse he might be one of their confederacy which they did but nothing being found wherein that to condemne him neverthelesse he was sentenced to be committed to close prison which the souldiers understanding of whom hee was very much beloved and considering the injustice of the cause came with one consent upon the councell of warre and per fas aut nefas delivered him withall falling into such an abrupt mutiny being instigated and egged forward by Captaine Bolte whom they had freed who was eager of revenge on his enemies that they desperately hurt Oneale slew both the Carleyes Captaine Sartwel and Captaine King their companions three hundred souldiers hee in the meane time getting through the presse gave intelligence to Captaine Pollard commanding a company of Scots who with others came to the towne upon the intelligence of whose approach the Rebells fled notwithstanding they spared not to vent their spleene upon the poore Protestants whom they massacred and cut all to peeces leaving in the towne through haste and feare of being overtaken the most part of their armes three small field peeces with their carriages ten wagons with ammunition as also the traice horses to draw them which proved the spoile to the Scotch Protestants FINIS
