A Letter from Newcastle.
Sir,
YOurs by the last Post I received, being much revived at
the good News from Ireland: As for News from these
parts, there is not much, but the Malignants were exceedingly
heightened, at the strong report the Cromwell was totally
routed, which I blesse God is quite contrary; you may see how
the wicked inventions of men, will soone ruise up their drooping
spirits to be filled with the oyle of gladnesse: but the contrary
news being come, makes them amezed, and at a stand, they
knowing not what to doe, but are sending to the Phy[unr]ians for
a Comforting Cordiall to comfort their hearts; they may not
languish away. The News from Scotland is as followeth:
Not a word this week from Liberton, wee suppose before
this he is with his Majesty. Sir Richard Adwyer wrote hither
the last weeke from the West of Scotland, that hee heard that
Ormond and Crumwell had fought, that Ormond, and about five
thousand of his men were killed, and Inchequin dangerously
wound d but no further confirmation hereof since; I hope by
the next Post, you will have the certainty; wee heare also, but
not certainly that Armonds George Munro are joyned, intending
the reliefe of Carick forgus, the time of the surrender drawing
high; and we further heare, that Venables with a good party
is out to hinder them, we heare that Morton and Kinnowl falling
out, the Earle of Kinnowl stroke the Earle of Morton, and that
Morton presently tooke his bed, and is certainly dead, as is supposed
