Case as it stands flated in those Letters is the true State of his his Case As to the first we find that the Lords of his Majesties Privy Council by their Letters of Dec. 19. 1660. directed to the Justices of this Kingdom signified that the Marquess of Antrim then Prisoner in the Tower of London Petitioned His Majesty to be heard as to his being Criminal in the Aspersing the Memory of the late King our Soveraign and their Lordships by these Letters required the Justices with all convenient speed to send their Lordships Authentick Copies of all Papers whatsoever under his own Hand or any other which may any way relate to the said Marquess his being guilty of so foul a Crime as the Defaming his late Majesty and that the Justices should cause all such Witnesses reside in this Kingdom who can alledge any thing to the proving thereof to be examined and the Examinations to be returned to their Lordships attested by us and the Justices appointed to take the same and in pursuance of those Letters the Justices caused a Commission to issue under his Majesties Great Seal to several Persons some of them Members of this Board and some of His Majesties Judges and some of his Learned Council to call before them and examine Witnesses upon Oath concerning the Lord of Antrims Aspersing the Memory of his late Majesty That those Commissioners having examined several Witnesses and returned their examinations to the Justices with their Letters of Feb. 20. 1660. directed to the Lords of his Majesties Privy Council Transmitted the same to their Lordships That March 29. 1661. it was ordered by his Majesty in Council that in order to a farther proceeding here against the Lord Antrim the Examinations and other Papers should be returned hither Thus far the matter proceeded before the Arrival of the Lord Lieutenant in this Kingdom Aug. 18. 1661. the Lord Chief Justice Santry made a report at this Board of the Examinations taken concerning the Marquess and upon his Petition it was ordered That the Chief Justice should Cancel the Recognizance acknowledged by the Marquess and his Sureties and as to his being Criminal in Aspersing and Defaming the Memory of his Majesties Royal Father we Humbly crave leave to send herewith the said Examinations and other Papers concerning the same which we Humbly Submit to his Majesty's Consideration and we confess we are not willing upon these Examinations and Papers to aggravate any thing against him and therefore it was that there was no censure nor any Transmission of charge against him to his Majesty and as to our Letters of March 18. we confess there is nothing contained therein against him nor indeed under favour did we conceive it proper in these Letters to object any thing of Crime to him Our work in those Letters being but to inform his Majesty only of the particulars then under consideration and what occurred upon occasion of two Petitions exhibited the one by the Lady Marchioness of Antrim the other in the Name of several Adventurers and Soldiers and their Assignes and Tenants for we did not imagine the Lord Marquess would have attempted to put His Majesty upon a difficulty of giving a Rule contrary to the Act of Settlement but would have abiden the Tryal in the proper way prescribed by the Act wherein it is provided that the said Marquess shall be restored to his Estate in such Manner and Form and according to such Order and Method and no other as the Lord Viscount Nettervile and the Lord Viscount Gilmoy ought by vertue of the Act to be restored and besides we had no notice from thence that the matters relating to the said Marquess were under Debate or Consideration there which might give us occasion humbly to Represent to his Majesty those things which now for his Majesties Service we are necessrated to do To the Second namely the report made that those of the Lords of the Council to whom his Majesty refer'd the Marquesses Petition we must acknowledge the justice of their Lordships proceedings upon what appeared to them But there are some which we do verily believe were not made known to them and which do appear to us here wherein we may not be silent without breach of Justice to his Majesty For I the Lord Lieutenant do well know that the Peaces made by me in 1646. and in 1648. in this Kingdom and both derived by Authority from his Majesties Royal Father was both opposed by the Lord Marquess of Antrim who continually served with the Popes Nuncio and his Adherents against his Majesties authority then intrusted with me the Lieutenant and appeared active in all Assemblies and Councels wherein he was present in open opposition to all Members of those Assemblies and Councils who endeavoured to incline the People to Submission to the Peace when I the Lord Lieuterant laboured earnestly by all Just and Honourable ways and means to Reduce his Majesties Subjects in this Kingdom to their due Obedience to his Majesty and to give him assistance whereof he stood in need in the greatest and most imaginable necessity and when the Marquess of Antrim and the Popes Nuncio and Clergies Party and their Adherents laboured industriously to withdraw them from their Obedience and Assistance to his Majesty and so far prevailed that when things were in a tendency towards sending Ten Thousand Men to his Majesties Assistance the Lord of Antrim declared openly in the Confederates great Assembly that not a Man should go out of the Province of Ulster and in the end both these Peaces were by that Disloyalty to his Majesty and by the Countenance and Continuance of the said Marquess Rendred Fruitless and what great and general Evils followed thereupon to his Majesty and all his Kingdoms we need not now repeat whence it was that in the Act of Settlement it is enacted that such as at any time adhered to the Nuncio's or Clergy's Party or papal power in opposition to the Kings Authority shall not be restored as Innocent Papists And this being the Marquess of Antrims Case how far it may be fit for his Majesty in the greatest Humility we mention it to direft contrary to the said Act of Parliament that the ommissioners upon these His Majesties Letters should proceed to find him Innocent for so the Letter seems to imply and that as we humbly conceive without giving any Latitude of power to the Commissioners to examine matter of Fact pursuant to the said Act of Parliament We humbly submit to His Majesties Great Wisdom and as we humbly conceive it is not to be imagined that his late Majesty a Prince of most Eminent Honour and Prudence would privately intrust the Marquess of Antrim to oppose the conclusion of those Peaces for the obtaining whereof his Majesty had given publick authority to the Lieutenant or that he ever gave any Subsequent approbation which tended to his said Majesties utter reine and if it should be supposed that the Marquess his compliance

Gap a Gentleman stay'd His Majesty to speak with him and in that very moment a great Cannon Bullet was shot into that very place which would have struck His Majesty and Horse too all in pieces if his usual good Angel had not defended him yet it raised the dust all about him of which He took little notice but alighting came and layed him down on the Fort among all the Dust Aug. 20. A brisk Attack was made by Col. Cutt's Granadiers who with some others made themselves Masters of a Fort near St. John's Gate After which the Enemy sallied out of the Town and a very hot Action happened but the Irish was at length be at back into the Town with the loss of 300 men of ours 58 Foot were kill'd and 140 wounded of Horse 21 kill'd and 52 wounded Aug. 23. A Truce was made for burying the Dead on both sides We found a French Officer wounded and his Horse lying upon him and yet he was alive and recovered tho' he lay from Wednesday to Saturday A Chaplain in the Army happened to go down after the Fort was taken and seeing a Trooper as he thought mortally wounded he went to give him good Advice which the other was very thankful for In the mean time comes the Sally and our Horse came thundering down at which the Clergy man hastening away fell down The wounded Trooper seeing him fall thought he had been dead and went to strip him having soon got off his Coat at which the other called to him to hold asking him what he meant Sir says the Trooper I beg your Pardon for I believed you were kill'd and therefore I thought my self obliged to take care of your Cloaths as well as you did of my Soul Aug. 27. A Breach about 12 yards long and pretty flat being made nigh St. John's Gate the K. gave order for attacking the Counterscarp that Afternoon which was done by 500 Granadiers and some other Regiments of Foot and Horse with much resolution The Irish having all their Guns ready discharged great and small shot among them abundantly and our Men were not behind in either so that in 2 Minutes the noise was so terrible as if the Skies had rent asunder which was seconded with dust smoak and all the terrours that the Art of Man could invent to ruin and undo one another the excessive heat making it yet more uneasie The Granadiers threw in their Granadoes and afterward get upon the Counterscarp Upon which the Irish were throwing down their Arms and running into the Town with all speed which our Men perceiving entred the breach Pell mell upon them and above half the E. of Drogheda's Granadiers and some others were actually in the Town the Regiments that were to second the Granadiers went to the Counterscarp and having no Order to go further stopt The Irish were all running from the Walls and quite over the Bridge into the English Town but seeing only a few of our Men enter they were with much ado perswaded to rally Those English that were in seeing themselves not followed and their Amunition being spent designed to retreat again but some were shot others taken and very few came out again unwounded The Irish then ventured on the Breach again from the Walls and all other places severely pestered those on the Counterscarp for 3 hours together with Bullets Stones and broken Bottles even from the very Women who boldly stood in the breach and were nearer our Men than their own So that the Ammunition of the Besiegers being spent they thought it safest to return to their Trenches In the heat of the Attack the Brandenburg Regiment who behaved themselves very well were got upon the Black Battery where the Enemies Powder happened to take fire and blow up a great many of them the Men Faggots Stones c. flying into the Air with a dreadful noise From half an hour after 3 till 7 there was one continued Fire of both great and small shot without intermission insomuch that the smeak from the Town reached in one continual Cloud to the top of a Mountain at least 6 miles off when our Men retreated some were brought out of the Trenches dead others without a Leg or Arm and several Blind with Powder and among them a great many Brandenburgers who lookt like Furies with the Gun-Powder The King stood nigh Cromwel's Fort all the time and afterward went to his Camp much ●●●cerned as well as the whole Army a mixture of Anger and Sorrow appearing in all their Faces We loft at least 500 upon the place and had 1000 more wounded We kill'd a great number of the Irish by our Cannon but it cannot be thought their loss should be equal to ours having the advantage of the Walls to defend themselves The Soldiers were desirous of a second Attack seeming resolved to have the Town or dye every m●n but they did not know the scarcity of our Ammunition and besides it began to rain and the next day rained very fast so that it was resolved by a Council of War th● Siege should be raised We found some difficulty in getting off our Cannon the Ways were so seft with the wet and we also oblig●d to draw them off with Oxen the Enemy having taken part of our Train-Horses which was one main reason of raising the Siege In a day or 2 after Monsieur Boislean the Governor of Lymerick made a Speech to the Irish telling them That with much ado he had persuad●d them to defend the Town which with God's help they had done but assored them It was not Fear but Prod●nce and Policy that had made the English quit the Siege as appeared by their slow marches and withal told them his Opinion That the next time the Enemy came they would have it which said he took leave and went to the French Forces then at Galloway and designed for France The day the Siege was raised the K. went to Waterford and thence to England sending the Lord Sidney and Tho. Connings by Esq to the Camp with a Commission to be Lord Justices Sept 8. The Lord Lisburn went before Killmallak being a Garrison of 200 Men which upon the approach of our Forces y●●lded on the first Summons Nignah Castle having done the like sometime before to Major General Ginkle Sept. 21. The E. of Marlborough landed near Cork with several Forces and was joyn'd by Major General Scravenmore and others who presently invested the Town and soon after made a breach in the Walls so that after seven days Siege the Garrison surrendred upon Articles Oct. 2. The Earl of Marlborough marcht thence to Kingsale the Town was presently delivered he then sent a Summons to the Governour to surrender up the Forts who returned answer That it would be time enough to talk of a Surrender a month hence upon this several Batteries were raised against the old and afterward the new Fort which played with such success that they were both delivered up Oct.
