General MONCKS RESOLVTION To make good His DECLARATION VVith the loss of his Blood In a Letter from New-Castle November twenty nine 1659. To a Worthy Person in London SIR YOur last I received with safety and according to your desire have sent you a true Account of the most material intelligence touching the present transactions in these Northern parts viz. The General Assembly do still continue and have three considerable Castles granted them by General Monck to be at their disposing as an assurance of his fidelity toward them And for ought I can perceive there is very little or no hopes of Agreement because General Monck hath set down his Resolution to make good his former Declaration with the losse of his Bloud for he will not agree to any thing against what is therein expressed And as we hear General Monck is much offended at the Lord Lambert who hath intercepred his Letters to General Fleetwood and opened them and Letters to his own Commissioners Yesterday came an express from him and the Messenger accidentally having got a fall could go no further then this place That the Lord Lambert opened the Letters and sent them by a Messenger of his own to the City of London General Monck writes to General Fleetwood that he perceived his Commissioners had agreed to some things contrary to his Order and Declaration the which Agreement he would not own and he therein desired that 5 Commissioners might be sent to this Town and that he would add two more to his three to Treat with those five Commissioners about an Agreement But it much displeased the Lord Lambert so that he was fully resolved to march against him with as much expedition as possible he could but this day calling a Council of the Officers of his Army hath a little stayed his March We are much oppressed in these parts with the continuance of the Arm here The Lord support us and carry on all for his Glory for the Good of the Church and People General Monck is a Resolved General The Lord stand by them that stand by his Truth and Gospel One of the Letters sent by General Monck to the Lord Fleetwood was as followeth viz. My Lord I have received a Letter from your Lordship and by the same Pacquet an Agreement signed by your Lordships hand together with an intimation that the same was signed by those Gentlemen that were appointed by the General council of Officers here to treat with your Lordship I am exceedingly rejoyced to find in your Lordship and the Officers with you a spirit so complying and so tender of the Publick peace and shall upon intimation had from my Lord Lambert of what method he useth in drawing off the Forces which he hath drawn towards us observe the same here but because I am desirous that this Agreement of yours may be full and firm and because I perceive that there are some things remain here untreated of and unagreed upon it is the resolution of my self and Officers here to adde two more to their number that they may confer with the like number of such as shall be appointed by your Lordship for the putting a final end to this unhappy business onely desiring that it may be as soon as possible and if your Lordship would permit it to be at Newcastle it would very much expedite the business of which I suppose your Lordship can be no less desirous than I am because you cannot but be sensible that the whole three Nations are in expectation of this issue till which all publick busines must needs be at a stand unless it be that of the publick enemy who cannot but apprehend his own advantages and will very boldly let them slip My Lord As in this time of our greatest misunderstandings and misapprehensions there is nothing of personal relation to your selfe or any Officer with You so it will be very easie to return to that mutual confidence and Friendship which on my part was never lost and I can as really and heartily as ever subsribe myself Your most humle and faithful servant GEORGE MONCK LONDON Printed for John Johnson 1659.
