A Certaine relation of the Earle of Ormonds victories of late Worthy Sir I Know you cannot but much desire to here from your friends especially having left them in this miserable distracted Kingdom

praysed I never had more cause nor betternewes to certifie you of which hath conduced to the glory of Almighty God and the comfort of all us poore distressed Protestants against whom that devouing beast of Rome hath advanced her Force About the beginning of this moneth O Sulivan Beare came from the Westerne parts with twelue thousand men and came to Timoleague where Doctor Roger O Shahqns dwels and pillaged the towne and killed a great many of the English barborously ravishing theis Wives and Daughters taking the prey of all the towne marched away and came to Macharta Reh a great Rebell who had 12000 men joyned theit Forces marched to Band●nbridge and there besieged the towne and us in it threatning to put us all to the sworde if we did not presently render the towne so these Rebels and their Forces continued before the towne strictly besieging us and daily shooting at the towne the space of four dayes in which time we had dispatched certaine Messengers to my Lord President of Munster to Corke who hearing of our distresse sent Sir Charles Vavasour who came in the night with only 500. men and some other English Commanders and two peeces of Ordnance who made an assalt upon them before it was light they not expecting any such thing which being so suddenly performed did so distract and amaze the Rebels that they seemed to bee men without life and we hearing this Alarme in the towne having 2000. men in readinesse under the command of the Right Honourable the Lords of Cenelmuch Brahull both my Lord of Corkes sonnes as having beefore had intelligence of the stratagem did issue out upon them and ualiently assailed them who at the comming of the towne Forces they were absolutely routed and every man began to provide for his safetie by flight nor could the threats nor perswasions of their Commanders cause them to stay but they all run away and left their cheife Commander O Sulivan Beare who was there taken prisoner yet for all their hast there were at this bickering slaine and wounded on the Rebels part to the number of 2000. men wee loosing but twenty men beside some prisoners that were presently conveyed to Corke to my Lord Presedent who presently
