Gen. Cromwell by the Generals command sent out a Party of about 120 Horse under the Command of Captaine Pattison to Crookhorne some 5 miles from the head quarters to discover if it were possible the motions of the Enemy and marching according to his command sent a small party into the Town Commanded by Captaine Whiting by which was taken an Irish Cornet and some other Prisoners and being brought unto Sir Thomas quarters and upon the intelligence received from them The Generall Commanded Orders to be issued out to Collonel Charles Fleetwood to draw out his Regiment with another that quarterd with him at Brood Winsor and to be upon their march the next morning by 4 a clock after the Enemy and having the next day an additional strength joyned to him of horse and Dragoons hee pursued them to Peverton Bridge where after a small Skirmish he tooke some Prisoners and that night our head quarters were at Crook-horn and the next day being the Lords day we stayed there And upon Munday Iuly 7 our Rendesvouz was at Peverton where was a Conjunction of Generall Major Masseys forces and Collonels Welden to the Generals Goring having got beyond the River upon which Bridgewater stands lay in safety that we could not come to him having 4 Garrisons and guards upon Load Bridge all other passages upon the river the Gen having viewed many parts of the River marched downe towards Ilchester with a considerable body of Horse and Dragoons to see if it were fesable to force a Passage there but it being not to be done without an extraordinary hazard Goring having fortified both the County Jayles which stood just upon the Passe and upon a large debate at a Counsell of Warre in the field it was concluded to march that night to Evill 4 miles from Sherburne and there to get a Passe of which Goring understanding betimes in the morning quitted his hould at Ilchester and drew downe with his whole Army to Lampart upon which the Generall marched that day to Ilchester and there kept his head quarters Ordering Major Gen.
