KIND SIR I Am sorry to heare of such preparations both here and with you divers of our Iustices of Peace of this County are put out of Commission viz. At the Committee late at Yorke Sir Thomas Fairefax Sir William Fairefax M. Marword M. Stockdale and others to the number of seventeene or eighteene they are moderate men you may guesse the cause the Sheriffe is to send out Warrants to call all the Gentry to Yorke on thursday next to know what Horse every one will offer to his Majesty for service for three moneths or money if Gentlemen be not provided of Horse and Armes That proposition is thus that for every Horse Gentlemen are willing to provide they may if they will send in Money and no Horse after the rate of 2 s. 6 d. per diem for three moneths which if I be not mistaken in the accounting is 10l 10s per Horse divers Esquires send in six some ten the County standeth now at gaze wondring what may happen the King and Parliament as I may without offence say speake both one language all in words pretend the Kings Prerogative the Priviledge of Parliament the true Protestant religion the Peace the liberty propriety of the subject the Laws of the Land c.

Alderman Hoyles and at M. Winters who offered great abuse insomuch that M. Dickinson sonne in law to Alderman Hoyle got some Musquets into the House and stood upon his guard untill the Lord Major and others went to the Court after nine of the clock at night to end these tumults A good understanding seems to be unlikely betwixt the King and Parliament all the English eyes are upon the Parliament and forraigners too Oh that it would be considered what danger civill Warre may breed and if there be no receding of the one party how neere it is Divide the Kingdom into foure parts the Papist the Atheist the Separatist and the Protestant three of these delight in broyls which makes the heart of the fourth bleed This day Collonel Lunsford is come to Yorke the papists are as joyfull as may be and so is Sir Francis Wortley who I see to day alive and therefore no such matter for his death This is all the newes so I rest London Printed for Richard Best 1642.
