A GREAT FIGHT IN IRELAND Between the Princes Forces commanded by the Marquesse of Ormond and the Lord Inchiquin and the Parliaments Army commanded by Colonell Jones and Colonell Munk. Right Honoured THe Marq. of Ormond with 13000 Horse and Foot is sate down before the City of Dublin with a resolution to storm if not suddenly surrendred upon summons but renowned Col. Jones hath taken a resolution to fight it out to the last man and hath already made a gallant attempt and inroad vpon his Out quartes with 2000 Horse and Foot and after a sharp conflict Col. Jones made an honourable retreat into the City with the losse of 7 or 8 besides some sew wounded but the Lord Inchiquins Brigade of horse being gallantly mounted took vpon them great resolution and embraced the pursuit within a quarter of a mile of the Gates where we had a second engagement which continued very dubious for the space of half an hour till at last a considerable party of the Sea men came in to our assistance who by their lining of the hedges did so gall the Enemy that they were forced to retreat leaving above 30 men dead vpon the place in which fight we took Captain Smith Cornet Johnson and about ten more prisoners with the losse of five-men Since which time they have made another attempt vpon our Out-guards and vpon the neer approoch of their forlorn hope consisting of about 60 horse 30 of ours answered their charge and shot Lieut. Col. Dungans horse vnder him took him prisoner and Major Dungan his brother was mortally wounded our men brought off 7 of their horse and blessed be God but one man wounded none slain They are incamped within a mile and a half of the City where they expect the coming vp of the Earl of Clanrickard Lord Taff and the Lord Dillon with their forces for a sudden conjunction and then to make a sharp storm Their Tents are pitcht on this side Fingles their horse and foot lye all in our sight Col. Jones is labouring hard to fortifie against them hath given Orders for the pulling down all the Outhouses that may advantage their design and hath set forth Proclamation for all the Irish Papists and other disaffected Citizens to depart the City within 12 hours after the publishing thereof by whose unwearied pains and vigilancy we are in some reasonable possibility of the more safety thereby have hard duty to attend the Line dayly but great will vigour and readinesse is in all men to perform the service We have about 7000 foot with the Inhabitants fighting men and about 500 horse to face the enemy Our provisions consume very fast and every thing is excessive dear having now neither fish nor flesh to come to our Markets the enemy being possessed of that which should relieve us and are in a prosperous condiiion at present and like to do what they please if our friends in England do not relieve us suddenly and moeey to pay them and those that are already here and more provisions for them all for Wheat is here at 5. li. 10. s. the quarter Rye at 4. li. 10. s. the quarter little to sell and little money to buy it our Men of War are come from Bewmorris and divers ships from Chester and no men nor money it is impossible in mans judgment for us to hold out till ayd comes from England We have to st the good Town of Kildare but it cost the enemy very deer for after three or four desperate assaults made by them on the hreaches made by their Canon having lost many of their men they sent for a parley and observing the undauted resolution of Lie Col. Huteson and Cap. Dixon who commanded the me● there most of the men vnder them although many of their men would not fight at all are since gone to the enemy that they gave our men quarter in two dayes to carry away what they had where was great store of corn and meal Ballesoman is befieged and it must be last because we cannot come to relieve them We hear that Owen Oneal with his forces is joyned with them of Kilkenny against us but we have no certainty thereof We are in a very sad condition all our provisions being almost all spent yet I hope the Lord will defend this place and that every one that puts his trust in him shall be delivered to whose blessed protection I commend you and rest ever Your indeared and most affectionate friend SAMUELL COTTON Dublin 24 June 1649.
