Fowler October 5. True and Happy NEWES FROM WALES Declaring the Proceedings of the Marquesse of Hartford in Clamorgan shire THe Earl of Bedford since his last and Happy Victory over the Marquesse of Hartford the Lord Paulet and the rest of their Confederates except Sir Ralph Hopton one of the greatest incendiaries in that opposition and Rebellion who is departed from them and is escaped privatly as it is furmised and returned back again into Somersetshire but there his welcome and entertainment wil be very mean and slender were chased and pursued to Minhead by the Earl of Bedford where the Marquis according to his expectation but contrary to his desect found and was entertained and received by some Coal ships Yet the Earl of Bedford had formerly used all possible means for the preservation and stoppage of his passage over Severn Notwithstanding all which means formerly used by the Earl for the prevention of the Marquesse his flight having gotten the opportunity and conduct of these small Coal ships which then lay in the Harbour he got over the River and escaped into Wales and by that means escaped the Justice of the pursuing Enemy Yet notwithstanding this unhappy escape and the Earls hopes to compasse his ends the cause of all his labours and vexations being frustrate by the escape of the Marquesse he did not desist from his purpose but did pursue them with all the violence he possibly could and at the last came in view of them and being seconded with a happy successe he was made in part Master of his Desires for although he could not watch the Marquesse who by the help of those Wale ships had escaped into Wales yet he took the Lord Paulet Sir Henry Berkly and two of his Brothers whom he hath now in custody and as soon as with conveniency he can he will send them up to the Parliament that by them they may receive condign punishment By Letters from the well affected party in Wales it was signified that the M. of Hartford had possessed himself of Cardiffe Castle in Clamorgan-shire and was resolved to seize upon all Cattels that belonged to the E. of Pembrook but so soon as the Inhabitants of that County had information of it they gathered a head and gave battle against the Marquesse at Cardiffe killing some 53. with the losse of 9. men The Earle of Pembrookes Proceedings in Wiltshire Since the beginning of these present troubles in England most of the Counties of this Kingdom have bin first or last divided among themselves and are not as yet composed Amongst which Counties the County of Wiltshire did challenge a part which untill within these few dayes was divided very much and did so continue until the Earl of Pembroke his going downe whose comming hath done very much good in those parts and so setled the minds and affections of the Inhabitants thereabouts that now they are not to be doubted of their constancy and fidelity to the Parliament At his first comming down he opened unto them all his Majesties Proceedings shewing them to be against the Priviledge of Parliament and the Liberty of the Subiect and that His present proceedings in war are destructive and opposite both to the Laws of the Kingdome and his own oath taken at his Coronation When the Earl had thus farre instructed them concerning His Majesties present Proceedings they were not long before they did unanimously consent unto what was desired them by the Earle of Pembrooke but all placed themselves in a good posture of Warre and did declare their readinesse and willingnesse to stand for the King and Parliament against all that shall endeavour any way to disturbe the peace of that County and also promised both with their lives and fortunes liberties and goods to promote and to maintain the Proceedings of Parliament so much as in them lay The Kingdome of Scotland hath appointed 8. Commissioners four whereof are Earls to present a Declaration to the Parliament and a Petition to His Majesty the effect wherof was as followeth That His Majesty would be pleased to leave his Evill Counsellours and return to his Parliament wherby a firme Peace may be setled betwixt them and that the Synod for the setling of Religion may go on and some other such like Propositions tending to peace which if His Majesty shall refuse to hearken unto they do Declare that they shall be inforced in duty to His Majesty to take up Arms to assist their Brethren in England FINIS
