Men were slain with the number of Officers Colours Commanders and common Souldiers that were taken Prisoners with Ordnance Arms and Ammunition As it was informed to some Members of the House on Monday the 12. of June 1643. LONDON Printed for Robert Wood. 1643. Another Relation of a miraculous Victory obtained by the Lord Fairfax against the Earl of Newcastle BY those that came out of Yorkshire it was this day informed that about Tuesday last the Lord Fairfax obtained a great victory against the Earl of Newcastle in a place called Barnham-Moore about twelve miles on this side Yorke in which place the Lord Fairfax slew as is informed by those which say they were eye-witnesses at least fifteen hundred of the Earl of Newcastles men and took one thousand prisoners with great store of arms and ammunition and put the rest to flight and was in pursuance of them when the party that brought this relation came from thence and it is thought the Lord Fairfax will become Master of the field and that it will be a good means to settle the peace of that County for after the late victory obtained by the Lord Fairfax against the Earl of Newcastle neer Wakefield the said Earl came against Leeds to besiege the Lord Fairfax with a great part of the forces which he had at York the Lord Fairfax maintained not only the quarters which he had before as Leeds Halifax and other places in those parts but forced the enemy to retreat and inlarged his quarters by which means he met the enemy in the field which the Malignants boasted he durst not do and so it pleased God to give unto him this victory also which as though J doubt not but will be ratified by insuing relations yet for the present because J am the first that have written of this matter and unwilling to write the least untruth wherby the Kingdome might be mis-informed J shall omit many particulars touching the said fight at Barnham yet it is reported that the Lord Fairfax took at least 2000. armes and six pieces of Ordnance and many of the prisoners taken are persons of good quality as Colonels Captains and at least forty Colours besides many other Officers This victory hath so dishartned the rest of the Popish army about Yorke that some of the Frenchmen and others which the Queen brought over with her do wish themselves again in their owne Countrey and it is informed that Sir William Fairfax is with a considerable number of men marched toward York in which voyage there is no doubt through Gods mercy but he will finde good successe for except the County of Lancaster we have not the like experience of Gods goodness to the poore Protestants of England as in this County for as in Lancashire so in Yorkeshire there was great store of Papists and malevolents and certainly if the Kings army could have gained love in any place it would have been in this county which was the place where the army first gathered together against the Parliament and yet at that time before any act of hostillity against them and the design was carried with as much secrecy and subtilty as possible could be under a colour of defending the Parliament and liberty of the subject it pleased God to give the greatest part of this county such a discerning spirit that notwithstanding all the faire shewes and pretences were made to colour those wicked designs which were at that time intended against the Parliament and whole kingdom which have since been brought to the birth in the city of London though God in mercy hitherto infatuated their Counsells so that they have been brought forth according 〈◊〉 their desires yet this County even at that time which was before either the murdering of his Majesties good subjects plundering and robbing them of their goods burning their dwelling houses Corne hay c. all which is apparently known to have been put in practise in many Counties of this kingdome by those that heretofore pretended they tooke up armes for the honour and safety of his Majesties person the rights and privilledges of Parliament and the liberty of the subjects all which pretences they have violated and broken and not only by the practices before mentioned but by sundry plots and secret conspiracyes as is most apparent to the whole kingdom have endeavoured the ruine and distruction of the Kings Royall Majesty the very essence and being of the Parliament the distruction of the state and kingdome and to bring his Majesties good subjects into vtter bondage and slavery yet as I said before the County of York before any of those things were put in practise did for the most part declare that they would not take up armes against the Parliament and have ever since shewed themselves very constant and resolute for the cause and if all other Countyes would now his Excellency is advanced toward Oxford rise and joyne themselvs into body for the aiding of his Excellency in that designe a suddain period would be put to the present distractions but if men will strive to make the breach greater between the King and his Parliament or stand as Neuters they will be a means to bring ruine and distruction upon themselves and the whole kingdome FINIS
