from_o another_o but_o that_o we_o be_v always_o within_o two_o mile_n one_o of_o another_o at_o night_n upon_o our_o march_n yesterday_o there_o come_v news_n throughout_o to_o all_o our_o several_a

from_o it_o we_o have_v not_o lay_v still_o but_o one_o day_n since_o we_o come_v forth_o so_o that_o if_o far_o travel_v and_o hard_a fare_n and_o no_o lodging_n will_v make_v we_o gentleman_n than_o we_o shall_v be_v gentleman_n present_o but_o the_o lord_n be_v praise_v we_o take_v comfort_n in_o it_o we_o hope_v to_o see_v gloucester_n by_o the_o next_o tuesday_n at_o night_n and_o be_v very_o confident_a through_o the_o aid_n and_o assistance_n of_o almighty_a god_n to_o raise_v the_o siege_n with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o courage_n all_o our_o neighbour_n god_n be_v praise_v be_v in_o
