A67448	A true narrative and manifest set forth by Sir Robert Walsh knight and Batt. which he is ready all manner of ways to justify as relating unto Plots, designs, troubles and insurrections, which were intended to have been set a foot, towards the subversion of His Most Excellent Majesties laws and government, not by a private information, or other, but before any court of Justice, discipline ; either in the civil, common, or marshal law and to reply or disanul the printed paper, in part of Edmund Everard and Irish man, who was so long prisoner in the tower : and to make out why he was so detained, nothing relating to the plot but was for his intent to have poysoned the Duke of Monmouth as shall more amply be made out in this manifest.	Walsh, Robert, Sir.	1679 (1679)	Wing W644; ESTC R6905	38,783	40

again taken for the old Debt and made Prisoner but my Lord was dead that Noble Dorset else assuredly there had been payed as much duty unto her Majesties Priviledges as before she then being here present as was in her absence as in my concern but the times are changed and we too much a La mode some promises much and in effect perform little this is no romance and less is what will follow The wars beginning then truly I was offerd by the Houses of Parliament a considerable Imployment my Tenent not leading me that way I quietly got away and went for York where my King was and I in no ill equipage and after kissing his hand applyed my self unto the Lord Henry Wilmot late Earl of Rochester deceased who left this Young Lord I hope to inherit the Fathers Worth and Gallantry The Lord Wilmot was then raising a Regiment of Horse for His Majesty and assoon as I came to him he did embrace me bidding me welcome not Alamode but in effect telling me I should command his own Troop then a raising so I did and in it a Hundred Valiant brave men most Gentlemen of Estate and Quality who not long after did so approve themselves who could not choose but so to do having such a General in the head of them as was his Lordship what hath not he done to leave his Name Renowned VI. I being made Prisoner last Parliament 1678. all my Papers and Writings seized upon and I carried Prisoner to the Black Rod by Sir Edward Cartred who was very civil towards me and carried before the Most Honorable Committee of Lords and yet the Noble Lord that moved against me in Parliament appeared no more to have made party against me believing not as I presume what was told him VII Now give me leave Noble Readers to give a relation of the first War betwixt King and Parliament which truly is uncontradictable for it shall carry nothing in it but a real Character of truth At the Battle of Edge-hill His Highness Prince Rupert that ever Renowned Person Commanded the right Wing of our Horse who put the Enemies into an absolute rout and the Earl of Brandford the left unto whose share it came to charge the Enemies right Wing His Highness putting into a derout their left Wing the Battle begun upon a Sunday Morning and the Lord Digby commanded our reserve of Horse who gave more Testimony of his Courage then of conduct but that never to be buried in oblivion the deceased Earl of Rochester this Lord being then Commissary General of the Horse and in the head of our left Wing of Horse and in the head of his one Troop Commanded by Sir Robert Walsh and his Lordships Troop consisting of at least a Hundred Brave and Noble Gentlemen as Sir John Dongan Sir Brien O Neale Sir Henry Talbot sir walter Dongan son to sir John brave Irish Gentlemen whose most Valiant deportment gave great Testimony of their Loyalty as I may say did the whole Troop and his Regiment as may witness that first service they were in his Royal Majesty of Blessed Memory and His now sacred Majesty and his Royal Highness were not only there as witness of their Loyal subjects but also hazardly and dangerously ingaged in the said Battle to their great and ever Renowned Everlasting Glory The Lord wilmos having charged the right Wing of the Enemy did beat them and put them so in disorder as that they run confusedly into Kington which was in the Rear of their Army the reserve of our Horse unpremeditatedly follow the pursuit of the Enemy which gave the advantage unto the reserve of the Enemies Horse as also unto their main Body that they fell upon that Renowned Most Honorable Earl of Linzy our General and so furiously as that His Majesties own Regiment was disordered and divers of their standards taken at the same time where the Noble Lord Gerard Commanding Three Regiments of Foot made a most manly stand our Horse being for the most part mingled in the Enemies and his Highness Prince Ruperts Horse pursuing fortune proved so favorable unto sir Robert walsh as to keep the Lord Wilmots Troop in a Body unscattered so as he encountred some of the Horse that charged the Earl of Linzy in their return this being in the rear of the Enemies Army towards the Town of Kington sir Robert with his Troop charged them and recovered the standards which they took from the Kings Regiment and also took some of the Enemies and sir Robert being then in the rear of the Enemies Army in the Town of Kington did sieze upon Two Pieces of Cannon and a Waggon brought them into the rear of His Majesties Army His Glorious Majesty having lain that night upon the top of Edge-Hill his Army not then drawn from the Enemies sir Robert towards Morning brought the Two Pieces of Cannon and Waggon to the bottom of Edge-hill and brought the standard of His Majesties and some of the Enemies unto His Highness Prince Rupert who immediately did present them and sir Robert unto His Majesty who was graciously pleased there to Knight sir Robert for the acceptable service he then did render VIII Some time after his then Royal Highness the Prince going to command in the West of England Sir Robert was by His Majesty Ordered into the West to serve under his Royal Highness Bannor which he did as Lieutenant Collonel of Sir George Vaughans Regiment of Horse who was a brave Worthy Noble Gentleman and then Sheriff of wiltshire leaving all to Sir Robert Conduct But he still came when any fight was The Devises being then surrounded by Sir william waller and all our Army in the Devises which were so short of Ammunition and Match that they were forced to make use of all the Bed-cords which were in the Town for Match His Royal Highness Prince Maurica that Renowned Prince the Famous and Honourable the Lord Marquess of Herford and the Honourable Lord Hopson were in the Devises and Sir william waller surrounded them with his Horse Foot and Cannon having summoned the Trained-Bands of those parts to come and joyn with him which they then did the Prince and Lords called then in the Devises a Councel of War and concluded that their best expedient was to dispatch an Officer that would hazard to get to Oxford to give His Majesty advice how it stood with them in the Devises whereupon did depend very highly His Majesties Interest They pitched upon Sir Robert walsh to go and sent for him he being with his Regiment upon the Out-guards and asked him if that he would adventure he made answer that he would most willingly and readily that he regarded no hazard or danger so as that he could but compass their Relief upon which he was immediately ordered to go which he did being not ill Horsed and went all alone carrying not a servant or mart with him He was in his way closely pursued by the Enemies Scouts and
