with him a strong Garison and to make all sure Ormond Castlehaven and the Lord of Ards in their own Persons caused 1500 men more to be boated over to reinforce it Of this the Army were Spectators but could do nothing to impede their Entrance The Lord Governour no sooner approached it but he sent the Governour a Summons to this effect That since his coming into Ireland he ever avoided the effusion of blood having been before no place where he did not first send them such terms as might be for their preservation and to continue the like course he summons them to deliver up the town to the Parliament of England To this no answer at present was returned until three great Guns planted before it began to play then the Governour fearing to fall into the same Praemuniri that other Garisons had done before was content to treat which they did and came to this issue That the Town be delivered up and they within march away with bag and baggage Whilst these things were in doing Kingsale Cork Youghal Bandon-bridge and other Garisons voluntarily declared came under obedience In the North Sir Charles Coot and Col. Venables were very successful the Lord Braughal and Col. Huson in other places did very good service I should here particularize some of them but that my whole designe is to march along with the main Body of the Army Ross being now in Cromwels Possession he caused a Bridge of Boats to be laid over the River Barrow and the Army to sit down before Duncannon a strong Fort commanded by Col. Woggen who had formerly served the King in England This place was so well provided with all things that upon consideration at a Councel of War it was looked upon to be time lost in tarrying long before it therefore the Army speedily rise and march away into the County of Kilkenny where Ormond having joyned his Forces with Inchequeen gave out that he would fight whatever came of it His Army was strong both in Horse and Foot far out-passing Cromwel's who was weakned by continual duty hard marches the Flux and other sicknesses raging amongst them occasioned by wants and unseasonable weather commonly quartering in the field yet for all this Ormond that Ignis fatuus upon the approach of the Army whose weaknesses at that time required rather an Hospital to cure their distempers then an Enemy to make fresh wounds vanished away without giving one stroke Whereupon Col. Abbot reduced Enisteoge a little walled Town about five miles from Ross and Col. Reynolds with twelve Troops of Horse and three Troops of Dragoons marching up to Carrick having divided his men into two parts whilst they were amused with the one party he entered a gate with the other taking about one hundred Officers and Souldiers without the loss of one man The news of this place no sooner arrives at Ross but the Lord-Governour Cromwel who for some time had lain there sick marched away immediately to reduce the City of Waterford hoping to gain that important place before the Army should draw into Winter-Quarters No sooner was he come before it but a Regiment of Horse and three Troops of Dragoons were dispatched away to reduce Passage-Fort this party soon made them desire quarter and deliver up the Fort and Castle in it were five great Guns and much Arms and Ammunition These Garisons now in the hands of those that could make good use of them were of great importance to the reducement of Munster and consequently of all Ireland The Lord-Governour being now before Waterford and seeing the City resolved to stand upon their own defence it being now December the weather also very wet and his Forces weak he draws them off into VVinter-quarters that they might be refreshed against the Spring to finish the work so prosperously begun Their quarters were at Bandon-Bridge Col. Ewer and his Regiment at Kingsale Col. Stubber at Cork Col. Phaier and Col. Cook at Wexford and Youghal the Head-quarters in other places convenient for a quick conjunction if occasion should serve the Army was placed Now the Souldiery are taking their rest we may look back a little upon some Actions which fell out since their leaving Waterford No sooner was the Army marched away but Passage-Fort was besieged by a party from Waterford and another from Duncannon joyned together but Col. Zanckey setting upon them routed the whole party killing a great many and carrying away 350 prisoners Many other Skirmishes were maintained with the like success yet little comfort could be had in them when the loss of Lieutenant-General Jones vvas reflected upon he died of a violent Fever at Dungarven December 20 1649. He was a man real to that trust which was reposed in him a daring man yet governing his Valour with discretion which makes a good Souldier not rash but advised in all his attempts a great loss he was to the Army yet not all for quickly after followed Col. Wolf and Scout-Master-General Roe the Army had their share of this mortality if the Commanders fall how can it be expected the common Souldiers should escape free But to salve up the business continual supplies were sent by the Parliament from England which made them as it were immortal so that though many men were lost their number was not diminished Whilst the Army lay in their quarters Cromwel was not idle he visited all the Garisons that were in his possession in Munster and ordered all Affairs both Military and Civil Coming to Kingsale the Maior as in other places presented him with the Mace and Keys which he kept not returning them again and conferred the Office upon another This was looked upon the more because it had not been used by the Lord Governour but the Maior being an Irish-man and withal a Papist it was not thought fit to trust such a one with the Government of so considerable a place Now Cromwel knowing that he which intends to do much business must rise betimes and lose no opportunity his Souldiers had not breathed in their Winter-quarters fully two months before he marched out of Youghal with about 3000 to enlarge his quarters when they were in the field he divided them into two parties himself took one the other was led by Ireton who marched away to Carrick there to reinforce himself by the conjunction of Col. Reynolds These were to march into the Enemies quarters two several ways and to meet together at a Rondezvous near Kilkenny in order to this designe Cromwel takes vvith him one party and marches away over the Blackwater towards the Counties of Limerick and Tipperary The first place he took in was a Castle called Kilkenny upon the edge of the County of Limerick afterwards in his march fell in Clogheen-House and Roghil-Castle here he passed the River Sewer with much difficulty and immediately marched away to Featherd a Garison-Town governed by one Butler about ten at night they got into the Suburbs and sent a Trumpet with a
