inform_v to_o join_v with_o the_o lord_n lambert_n force_n on_o the_o three_o day_n of_o january_n the_o lord_n lambert_n be_v upon_o a_o speedy_a march_n southward_o from_o newcastle_n where_o he_o have_v leave_v ten_o company_n of_o foot_n and_o two_o troop_n of_o horse_n to_o secure_v it_o and_o the_o report_n go_v that_o general_n monk_n will_v march_v after_o he_o but_o we_o have_v not_o the_o certainty_n of_o it_o the_o lord_n lambert_n horse_n many_o of_o his_o foot_n we_o expect_v they_o at_o witherby_n the_o second_o of_o january_n and_o various_a be_v the_o opinion_n what_o he_o will_v do_v some_o think_v he_o will_v not_o trust_v to_o indemnity_n from_o above_o shall_v it_o be_v grant_v unto_o he_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v conceive_v that_o since_o the_o quaker_n etc._n etc._n do_v prepare_v for_o a_o conjunction_n with_o he_o that_o he_o will_v declare_v for_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n and_o by_o the_o help_n of_o the_o garrison_n of_o hull_n arm_n and_o array_n those_o man_n in_o hope_n of_o which_o the_o papist_n do_v not_o a_o little_a rejoice_v but_o other_o think_v that_o he_o will_v hold_v those_o people_n too_o narrow_a a_o interest_n to_o build_v so_o great_a a_o undertake_n upon_o have_v monk_n behind_o he_o the_o lord_n fairfax_n on_o the_o flank_n and_o the_o southern_a army_n if_o real_a against_o he_o in_o the_o front_n and_o therefore_o that_o he_o will_v rather_o declare_v to_o join_v with_o the_o lord_n fairfax_n for_o the_o restitution_n of_o the_o member_n in_o 1648._o and_o rather_o receive_v indemnity_n from_o they_o then_o from_o the_o present_a parliament_n one_o of_o those_o two_o in_o all_o likelihood_n he_o will_v be_v constrain_v to_o do_v if_o he_o do_v not_o submit_v unless_o he_o intend_v to_o go_v by_o to_o hasten_v up_o to_o london_n whereas_o we_o now_o hear_v he_o expect_v to_o find_v the_o army_n as_o pliable_a to_o his_o design_n as_o when_o he_o leave_v they_o postscript_n i_o forget_v to_o

their_o old_a general_n and_o there_o be_v a_o right_a understanding_n between_o they_o as_o i_o be_o tell_v we_o expect_v hourly_o to_o hear_v that_o colonel_n rossiter_n be_v up_o in_o
