The Irish Treaty Or The last and best News from Ireland Madam MY humble duty presented unto your Ladiship I doe admire that I have received no Letters from you since the 14. of March last past having since that time written above twenty letters to your Ladiship and still being ignorant whether they went safe or no the want of an answer possest me of a jealousie that it did no goe well with your Ladiship I meane in the fruition of your health but being very inquisitive of your welfare I had the happinesse to heare of you by Thomas Harris a Marchant of Dubl●n who as he told me saw you in good health in the new Exchange about the sixt of June which encouraged me to practise my pen in writing these following newes from this bleeding and gasping Kingdome The Lord Taffe having come from His Majesty with a Commission to Treat with the Rebels for Peace and shewing his Authority unto the Lords Justices desired their Licence to goe to Kilkenny where the Rebels sit in Parliament which was granted accordingly in regard the Kings Broade Seale was tending and commanding to that purpose The newes of this Message being posted into our eares who were pertakers of the unparalleld Cruelties committed by the Rebells against us whereof your Ladyship was an eye witnesse stroke us altogether into an astonishment when we rather expected a full revenge of our wrongs and miseries with a satisfaction of the losse of our goods and a hundred thousand soules of our brethren who perisht in this Rebellion then any clemency to be extended to the actors of our woe but well Taffe goes to Kilkenny where he is nobly entertained by the Rebells and six dayes after he sent Propositions to the State to this effect First that they should have a free Parliament with their Roman Prelates and dignitaries to sit in the House Secondly that the meanes of the Bishops and Protestant Ministers should be restored to their Clergy Thirdly that no satisfaction should be demanded by the British for any losses they sustayned Fourthly that any plantation taken from the Irish within these twenty yeeres should be of no effect but the Land so planted to be confirm'd upon the lawfull Heire Fifthly that no Lord Deputy should bee Governour of that Kingdome but two Lords Justices whereof the one should be Irish the other English These Propositions being read the Marquesse of Ormond was appointed to Treate with them the appointed place was Trym a garrison Towne of ours in the County of Westmeath to which place resorted from the Rebels the day appointed as Commissioners The Lord Neuterfield The Lord Viscount of Germanstowne Sir Iohn Mac Crah and O Carrall so having met The Rebels insisted very much upon the former Propositions which the Marquesse of Ormond and Sir Francis Willoughby withstood very stoutly The Treaty held three weeks during which time the Rebells confiding in the greatnesse of the Lord Taffe came into Dublin daily so familiar and in such multitudes no man daring to controle them pretending the Kings protection insomuch that we were in a deadly fear that the Castle of Dublin should be surprised and our throats cut in a night The Marquesse of Orm●nd a weeke before the Parly sent to the North for foure thousand Scots to come to his affistance which suddenly marched on with all the haste that possibly could be the Rebells never dreaming of such a thing otherwise I beleeve they would not stand so obsti●●●● on their high termes Sir Francis Willoughby understanding by letters that the Scots were within two dayes match told the Lord Marquesse of it who very joyfull of the newes bid the Rebels shift for themselves and that he scorned to treat any more with them and upon this he returned to Dublin and is now in the field having divided his army into three bodies The first commanded by himselfe the second by Sir Francis Willoughby and the third by Coronel Craford who lately sent to Dublin two thousand Cowes from the Rebels which he tooke in the County of Wickloe where he is at this present which was a joyfull comfort to us having before that leane fresh Beefe sold for Eight pence a pound but our joy did still increase more and more for upon the necke of this happinesse Sir Francis Willoughby sent from the County of Longford and Cavan two thousand and seven hundred Cowes and fourteene hundred Sheep which made things so plentifull amongst us that we stand in a good posture of defence and strongly resolved to bee fully revenged upon the Rebells notwithstanding any command comming to the contrary whatsoever We shall have Winter Barly heere shortly to make bread before all our Beefe bee spent At the writing heereof Newes came to the State that the Marquesse of Ormond had given a great overthrow to the Rebels in the County of Carlo at Castle Dermot and got two peeces of Ord●ance from them and killed many of their chiefe Commanders but I cannot as yet certifie their names nor number which I shall doe by the next conveniency In the mean time I rest Your Ladiships faithfull friend and servant George Brimpahir Dublin July 2. 1643.
