A True Relation of certaine News from the VVest of Ireland Worthy Sir WEe are here in dryly troubles and housely feares the strength and numbers of the Rebels dayly incresing who are mightily encouraged by the dissentions which is amongst you in England and contrarywise it doth much disharten us for your dissentions are our ruines and your intestine b●oyles will be the utter losse of this State and Kingdome No question it is for our sinnes that God doth thus afflict us and in his good time he will also release us from this miserable calamity We wonder we have no supplies from England which were expected here a great while since but whilst we look for aide for any thing I can see this Kingdome will be irrecoverably lost for we wan● men money and in some sort victuals which God hath hitherto provided for us the Rebels are grown so insolent now that they dare bouldly vent the rankor of their hearts which they have hitherto concealed Their intents are absolutely to throw off the English Government and do intend to Crown a King of their own as it is commonly talked here and they are not afraid to name him which is Sir Philome Oneale he is that Perkin Warbeck that must weare the Royall Diadem of this Kingdome and King CHARLES shall bee quite rejected and all Protestants quite expelled out of Ireland But we hope that High and Honourable Court of Parliament are sensible of that deluge of bloud that hath beene shed from the sides of miserable Protestants and will hasten the aides and succours which they intend for us I hope the King hath so many Frinds and loyall Subjects in England and other places that they will not suffer so faire a Iewell to be ravished from His Regall Crown to the King 's great losse and dishonour of His other Kingdomes The Rebels are mightily animated and encouraged by Letters Bulls and Messages from the Pope and that Baalitica Conclave of Cardinals at Rome who doth dayly exasperate the over desperate minds of these bloudy minded Rebels who do absolutly beleeve that now they shall shake off the English yoake as they terme it and recover their long lost Freedome but God I trust will prevent their wicked Counsels and bring them and those wicked Ahitophels their Counsellours to the end that Ahitophel had for his treason for counselling against his annoynted Soveraigne Macharta Rhe keeps his Rendesvous at Timilage six or seven miles from us but by the care and watchfulnesse of the Lords of Kenelmeke and Droughull hee hath often times retreated with losse of men and Munition and yet he seaseth not to sally out against us in Bandonbridge which is all the Townes that hold firme for the English betwixt it and Corke Castle Lyon one of my Lo●y Barramoore's m●nnour houses being new built and a stately house about the 16 or 17 〈◊〉 this instant May was assaulted by the Lord Roach the Lord Musgrave and Mac. Donah who tooke it and my Lord Barramoore in it who was not able to defend it they made pillage of all that was in the house and then beate it down utterly ruinating and burning all the matterials of the same not leaving any thing that was good for ought the Rebels swore and vowed to kill him unlesse he would turne to them which they do ordinarily to every one they take but he absolutely bearing the same these three arch-Rebels consulted what they should do and concluded not to kill him but taking every thing that was worth their carrying away they left his Lordship with only one horse on which he rod to his Father the Earle of Corke The 24 of this May there was an Allarme given at the wals in the night by Macharta Rhe and some 10000 men but to their shame and our comfort we had of them a happy victory for the Souldiers in the Town being ready upon all occasions as knowing the Rebels had some designe in hand was not slow in receiving them but issued out against them it being the dawn of the day and gave them battaile and the courage and forwardnesse of our men being so great that there was no need to provoke them on as knowing that they had made them fly when they were a far greater number they rowted them and killed them a pace and those miserable men being most 〈◊〉 them unarmed and having bu● small store of powder which is the he●rt of war and being still t●rrifie● with the last bickering th●y had with the English they fell to an absolute flight which is still their use for they will not stand a battaile My Lord of Kenelmeke was come to Bandonbridge the day before with 500 men and the Towne Souldiers were 2000 beside the Inhabitants so that the enemies were almost foure for one yet by the helpe of God there were slaine of the Rebels 250 men and we lost but seven men in all one of which the Rebels notwithstanding their flight hurried away with them to Time-lage where they put him to tortures thinking to make him confes the strength of the Town but when they could not make him confesse they hanged him We tooke in this bickering 140 M●skets 100 Pikes Swords Skeen●s and Pistols a great many three Cullers some provision of Victuals and Powder but not much besides the native Rebels here who in great multitudes are assembled against His Majesty and His people they have hope dayly of aide from the Pope or some Prince whom the Pope can persw●de to aide them in this Catholique Cause for the Pope hath promised to aide them by any meanes tha●●●e can but we hope that God will disappoint his Counsels and bring his intentions to naught and bring them and th● Authors of his m●schiefe to confusion to whom be praise and glory now and for ever You Father in Law since my last Letter is sick but we hope of his sudd●in recovery Your wife and children are all in good health God be praised Your brother in Law is gone to Dublin and wee have not heard from him since he went but do dayly expect to heare from him We looke for your returne dayly with a supply of men and money which if it bee a while neglected the lives of 100000 men will not recover that which their negligence will lose So trusting that God will strike our brethrens hearts in England with a feeling of our misery not knowing how soon the same may be theirs if not in time preven●ed by the hearing of this Kingdome I commit you to Gods protection and rest Your ever loving friend Robert Trevers
