INTRODUCTION.

The portions of the Ormonde archives * included in this
volume extend from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century,
and may be noticed in the order in which they are here printed.

I. The earliest of the documents is a " certificate *' or address,t
in JL643, fr<»n Anglo-Irish ''gentlemen possessioners/' and
ecclesiastical dignitaries of Kilkenny, Tipperary, and Waterford,
in ^^mmendation of James> Earl of Ormonde, then absent from
Ireland. The writers extol tbe earl's exertions against the
native Irish, his great attachment to the King, and dilate on
the many tenefits conferred by him on loyal English subjects.
" He helpeth," they write, " to bring tip, at his charges, their
" children after the English sort, and commonly rideth in his
" saddle with his servants, appointed after the fashion of Eng-
" land He enforceth to his power, wherever he ruleth, the
" inhabitants of the same to obey your Majesty's writs . • he
" extirpeth and extinguisheth sundry the Irish laws, customs and
" usages to his power ; he peopleth his possessions, as far as lieth
*' in himi with men of English sort, manners, and conditions."

The certificate is on parchment of large size. At foot of it
are many signatures and seals, including those of the Archbishop
of Cashel, the Bishops of Waterford and Ossory,. as well as of
the chief magistrates of towns in Kilkenny and Tipperary.

II Th^ collection entitled " Roy^l letters ''t opens with a.
despatch; of 1551, from Kdward VI. and his Council to Thomas
Earl o£ Ormonde. Tbia is followed by letters and documents of
Philip and. Mary, James I., Chf^ries I., Queen Henrietta Maria,
Chacles II., and James, Duke of York, subsequently James II
Spine of these letters are of the time when the royal family of
England were in exile on the continent. After the Restoration
period there are letters here from Charles 11. and his brother

James, and letters of condolence from the former and Queen
Catherine to the Duke of Ormonde on the decease of his dis-
tinguished son Thomas Earl of Ossory, in 1680. The collection
ends with warrants and orders from Queen Anne.

III. Peers' letters : * Of these tlie earliest are from Thomas
Earl of Sussex, 1573, Walter Earl of Essex, 1573, and Robert
Earl of Essex, 1599. Among the writers of the letters here in
the first half of the seventeenth century were Richard Boyle
Earl of Cork, George Abbot, Archbishop of Canterbury, Emer
MacMahon, Roman Catholic Bishop of Clogher, John Bram-
hall. Bishop of Derry, the Earl of Thomond, and Lord Taaffe.
There is also a fragment of a letter which Henry Cromwell,
while in Dublin, addressed to the Marchioness of Ormonde. Of
later dates in this section are letters from English peers and
from members of the peerage of Ireland.

IV. The documents calendared in our fourth sectionf
include letters and papers connected with Ireland in the
reigns of Elizabeth, James I., Charles I., Charles II., and
James II.

Some of these papers supply information on the complicated
and protracted legal contentions between James I., Walter, Earl
of Ormonde, and Richard Preston. The King was much attached
to Preston, created him a peer of Scotland, under the title of
Baron of Dingwall, and arranged a marriage for him with
Elizabeth Butler, sole child and heir of Thomas, the aged Earl
of Ormonde. After the death of the latter, Sir Walter Butler,
who succeeded to the earldom, took measures to secure the
rights of his young grandson, James Butler, as the next male
heir. To terminate the controversies and suits which thus
arose, and to " prevent the wasting and decaying of the great
*• and large possessions of the ancient and noble family" of
Ormonde, the King, with the aid of the judges in England, under-
took to act as arbitrator and the parties were bound by a legal
instrument to accept his decision under a penalty of one hundred
thousand pounds. The terms of the decision by the King, in
October 1618, were opposed by Earl Walter as unjust to his
grandson, and he suffered long imprisonment for his ^'obstinate

refasal " to " accomplish the award/* Earl Waltcr^s grandson
eventually became the first Duke of Oimonde.

From a letter in Latin, addressed by James I. to the Doge of
Venice, it would appear that Lord Dingwall, at one time, con-
templated entering the service of that State as commander of
an English military force.

In a dispatch here from Lord Salisbuiy and the Lords of the
Council at London, we find special reference to Kilkenny Castle.
It is," they wrote, " one of the ancientest houses of the Earl
[of Ormonde] and the cfaiefest seat of that place, which his
*' Majesty bath good reason to respect." The latest paper in
this section is in relation to an " Irish lecture," for which, it was
alleged, lands liad been settled on Trinity College, Dublin, by
Sir Turlogh O'NeiU.

V. Audley Mervyn's letters. Mervyn obtained lands in
Ulster under the " Plantation " arrangements for that province.
^s member for Tyrone in the Parliament at Dublin in 1640 he
took a leading part in the movement for the impeachment of the
Lord Chancellor and others. During the hostilities of 1641 in
Ulster, Mervyn obtained a commission as colonel of a British
regiment employed there, and was entrusted by Ormonde with
the governorship of Londonderry. From that town the letters •
before us were dated in 1644-5. They contain many references
to persons and afiairs known to the writer, and are the only
specimens hitherto published of Mervyn s correspondence.

VI. Letters and papers, 1651-l7ll.t Amongst these axe
letters of Charles II., Queen Henrietta Maria, Morley, Bishop of
Winchester, commissioners of subsidy, mayors, sheriffs, and
Protestant bishops in Ireland, John Wilson, recorder of London-
derry, Charles Willoughby, M.D., and communications addressed
to the second Duke of Ormonde. A catalogue in chronological
order, with extracts from the most important of these documents
is given at pages 95-97.

VII. In the collection named '* Vei*ses "J are Latin, English,
and French anagrams, chronograms, elegies, epigrams, epitaphs
and satires, mainly on persons who had relations with Ireland.
There are laudatory effusions on Charles I., Ormonde, and the

royalists with invectives against Cromwell aiid his followers.
There is also a large pictorial address in Latin verse, presented
to Ormonde on his coming to Kilkenny to negotiate for peace
with the Iri^ Confederates. The address is ornamented with
coloured drawings emblematical of the matters referred to in it.
The decease of Ormonde's son, Thomas, Earl of Ossory, in
1680, formed the theme of some of the productions before us.
A letter is here extant addressed to Ormonde by Thomas
Flatmad, whose " Pindarique ode " on the death of Ossory
appeared at London in 1681. The Duke, it is stated, having read
this ode, sent a diamond ring of great value as a {uresent to the
author, flatman, in his letter before us, expresses his ddep
gratitude to Ormonde for his ''unexpected princely favour/'
and refers to Ossory as the '* glory and delight of the English
nation."

VIIL Documents in relation to army in Ireland : * This
valuable and unique set of original papers supplies new informa*-
tion on the army in Ireland, and the persons and affairs in
connexion with it from 1598 to 1651. There are here muster
rolls of the regiments, with the names of the officers and their
ranks. In some cases the niimes of soldiers are given as well as of
the localities where they were stationed and of the services o^
which they were employed. Rates of pay, memoranda of arms,
horses, and clothing are also carefully entered.

Minute details appear here of the military measures in
1642-3 for the pcotection of the city of Dublin. Particulars
are given of the forces stationed in each street and locality, the
houses asmgnedto officers, the points at which special guards and
sentries were placed, and various' otiber matt^B connected witft
the military aiTangement& Among the officers named in these
papers was Algernon Sydney, whose biographers have given
Utile information as to his movements in Ireland.

The army documents before us extend from 1641 to the time
of Ormonde's withdrawal from Ireland after his treaty with the
commissioners of the Parliament of England in 1647.

These documents are here followed by others of the same class
in connexion with the forces in Ireland from the time immediately

snbsequeBt to Ormonde's retur a there as Viceroy in 1648 till he
departed in 1650.

JX. In this section* are calendared the contents of the Duke
of Ormonde^s register of miUtary commissions, warrants, and
(rtders issued by him, as Viceroy, from 1661-2 to 1666. This
register supplies precise information not elsewhere extant in
rri&tion to military administration in Ireland in the time to
which it belongs. In addition to the particulars otf the com-
missions, appointments, warrants, orders, and their dates, there
are petitions, numerous' entries on the movements d officers
a&d soldiers^ rates of pay, supj^ies of arms and clothing.

During part of the time included in the register the goveim-
ment in Ireland was administered by Ormonde's eldest son,
Thomas Butler, Earl of Ossory, and his official a«ts in relation to
the army are entered hei>e. The contents of the regisd^er do not
in Hike manuscript stand in regular (»rder as to dates, but they
are now presented in print in chronological sequence.

X. In connexion with the army of Charles II. in Ireland, we
havet a list, dated 6th May 1662, of captains, lieutenants,
ensigns, comets, and corporals, with particulars of the numbers
of soldiers and their stations. There are also here a return
made in July 1662 of the officers of the King's regiment of
guards; a list prepared in 1663 of officers received into the
army in Ireland subsequently to 1662, and a letter of 1682 from
officers of Ormonde/s regiment of guards to his secretary Henry
Qascoigne, who befriended Richard Steele in his early years.

XL The manuscript j: by Sir William Stewart, first Viscount
Mountjoy, is his official return, as master of the ordnance in
Ireland, in relation to tlie ordnance and munitions of war in
his chaise on 25th March 1684. They consisted of cannon,
carbines, muskets, pistols, grenades, powder, ball, match, sulphur,
saltpetre, with instruments of various kinds, iron and timber-
work, tents, waggons, harness for horses and oxen, and various
articles for artillery and other military requirements.

The places for which returns are entered in Lord Mountjoy's
manuscript are as follow : — ^Athlone, Bantry, Carlow, Cairick-
fergus, Charlemont, Charles-fort, Cork, Crookhaven, Culmore,

of these papers is a list of officers in 1684 who had served in Ireland
before 1659, with accounts of the positions held by them at the
latter date. Annexed to this document are interesting obser-
vations in the handwriting of Ormonde concerning each of the
persons named.

In this section are also official lists of the regiments of the
army in Ireland^ 1684-1686, with names of officers, chaplains,
surgeons, particulars of numbers of men and their locations.
Lists are also included of th& newly modelled army under the
Viceroy, Tyrconnell, as well as estimates of the numbers of
Roman Catholic officers and soldiers.

THE MANUSCRIPTS OF THE MOST HONOURABLE
THE MARQUIS OF ORMONDE, KILKENNY CASTLE.

Address from Kilkenny and Tipps&abt to Henbt YIIL^

1543, June 26. — ^ To the Kjnges moost excellent Highnes:

** In ther moost humble roaner, shewithe unto your rooost ex-
cellent Majestie, your Highnes fajthfull and obedient subjectes, the
gentilmen and possessioners dwelling within your Majestie's shires and
counties of Kilkenny and Tipperary, whose names unto this present
certificat ar[e] subscribed : Whereas they have emonge all rebellions
and insurrecciones attemptid in this reahne contynued in suche loyall
sorte as they have not oonly preservid them from ail suspicion of any
suche detestable offences, but also to ther uttermost power have noyod,
resistidy and invadid all such attonptatesy as well in the tyme of your
Majestie's moost noble £Either of famous memory, when therle of
Kildare crownid a harbor's son,* in Dublin, Kynge.

As also when therle of Desmond asistid oon Parkyne Warboucke, in*
tending to depryve his Grace from his crowne, kingdome and dignytie ;
and in like manner in the last rebellion of the Geraldyns,^ the said posses-
sioners suffrid greate losb of men, goodes, and cattaillis, with burnynge of
ther mansiones and come in the said countie of Kilkenny. And yet for
revenging thereof before the arryvvall of your Majestie's armye here,
the said possessioners comyttid suche invasion, burnynge and distraction
upon the said traditors as ther power was mouche slaked therby.

And like as ther duetie to your moost excellent Majestic bounde theym
therto, SCO were thei bothe led, enhablid and incoradgid to the same
by the Erie of Ormonde's father that nowe is and himself, who were
ther capitayns, guyders and conducters, under your Highnes and your
Majestie's deputie for the tyme beinge.

And at such tymes as any roode, invasion or hosting is sett forthe by
your Highnes Deputie they have accompanyed and attended uppon him
so doo daylie, be it in UUister, Connaght, or any other place within this-
realme, victualid and apointid at ther owne chardgee, at the loading of ther
sayd capitayne, withonte whom thei of themselves had not been hable to
comyt suche exploytes as thei have done, for he gevith them contynualy
horssis and harness ; and interteyneth other men of werr, to his sumptions
chardges.

The prlndpall cause that procureth the said gentilmen and pos-
sessioners to make this certificat to your Excellency, is for that
sethens the departing of the said Erie from this realme, it was credebly
reaportid unto them howe that certaine persones shulde affirme that the

Obxoitdb. he shulde take and levie of them against ther willis a great sum of monj
1548 ^^^ ^^ ^^^^ towardes his chardges [in] repay ring to your Highnes.

To that they certifie unto your Highnes that hertofore they pre-
sented before certayne of your Majestie's Oomyssioners howe they
were overcharged with certayne thinges worthi reformacion, which
accusaeion and presentment they were proeurid to do by the said Erie
himselfe, aswell to present him as dyvers of his kynnysfolkes, which
usid outeragiously to oppresse them mouche more then the said Erie
doth, who dysmynisshith ther bourdone and chardges otherwise and
after a better sorte then any of his antecessours of longe tyme dud, and
out of doubte thei nevir concevid none other in him but that his
intente have bene and is, to his power and posibilitie, for to put awaye
trishe usadges, extorcions and abuses, which thei consider, standing
under reformacion of your Highnes, were very inconvenyent to put him
from having power and habilitie to serve your Majestic in defence of
your Highnes subjectes and other marchinge with them being at
libertie to have men contynually and fumytnre for the werr to sett
forthe when them liste.

Furthermore, to the mony supposid to be taken against our willis
for an ayde for him repayring to your Highnes this tyme, uppon ther
faith and duetie to your Majestic, the same mattex (if it be so set
forthe) is false and untrue : for in respectethat the said Erie, besides his
goodnes premysid, extended to them, as well interteyneth, wadgith, and
gevith landes to sundry and dyvers of ther childern, brethrin and kynnis-
folkes, to parte of them for ther lyves, to others for yers, for ther service
oonly ; and is so greate a helper and gever to them all unyversally.

And also for that it ^perith well to them that he occupieth
himselfe mouche in your Majestie's afiayrs aswell at parliamentes
and counsailes, as to all roodee, assemblies and jorneys, wherby, as
parte of them doth knowe, he spendith his [w]hole annnall revenus
yerly and also is indebtid, and dyvers parcelles of his landes restith at
this present in mortgadge for preata eumes of raony ; wheruppon the
said gentilmen and possessioners assessid for a pore ayde to him on
his repayre thether, at this tyme, the sum of one hundred poundes
sterlinge of them and ther tenantes.

Moost drade Soverayne lorde, the said possessioners beseche your
Excellency, in meet humble wise, to have respecte to the premissis, as
thei ar[e] fully assurid your Highnes, of your moost kingly clemency,
woll in suche wise as noo evill invencion (if any ther be, as God
forbid) shall not hynder any noble man giltles ; and in semblable
wise by this ther certificat advertise your moost excellent Majestic that
^her was never man bredde in this realme, that any of them can
remembre, bare more intier affection, love, faith, and harte to his
Soveraine lord and maister then he doth, ne more hathe engravven in
his harte the benefactes which he hathe receyvid in sundry wise of your
moost excellent Highnes.

fle helpeth to bringe npp at his chardges ther childern, after the
English sorte and comenly rideth in his saddell, with hys servantes
appointid after the facion of England, he enforcethe to his power,
where soever he ruleth vnder your Grace, the inhabitantes of the
same to obey your Majestie's writtes, proces and lawes with due
obedience at cessions, which before his tyme was not [within] the
space of one hundred yers and more, so well observid ne obeyde;
he extirpeth and extinctith sundry the Irish lawes, customes
and usadges, to his power; he peopplithe his possessions, as ferr as

liethe in bim, with men of Englislie sorte, manei'es and condiciones mbs. ob
and oute of doubte the Irishrie of this realme reputith him evin the ^(^<SSb1'
principall deviser, setterforthe and interpriser of all thinges tonching ——

the reformacion of this realme; so as they all, the said Irishry, in ^^^'

effecte doo here more mortall hate, compassing his distraction above
anj* oon man Ijving, if it dud conciste in ther powers or wiliis to
bringe aboute or execute, havinge noo cause but for his lojall harte,
trouthe and duetie, in serving jour Excellency.

Eftsones beseeching your Majestic, of your Grace's accustomed clemency
and prudence, to have suche eye and respecte to your Highnes approvid
suljectes as the oonly submyssion of others newly reconcilid, without
further proff of ther hartes and service, be not the meane to elivate
them in power and streinthe, that thereby perille myghte growe to your
Majestie's faithfuU subjectes.

They do not meane to reprove or finde faulte in your Grace's
Deputie and Ck>un8idll here, in ther prooeedinges therin, but oonly
that cache cause and perill should be soo forseen after such sorte
as your Majestie's moste circumspecte wisedome may provide con-
digne remedye therfore in due season, and so admonishe your Highnes
said Deputie and Counsaill as the! shall take the better regarde to ther
doyinges ; wherby the thinges shall be the more firme and permanent.

And because the said gentilmen and possessioners sealis ar[e]
unknowen to dyvers, they have procurid suche privilegid and en-
franchesid places as hathe ther corporacion and jurisdiction by your
Majestic and your Grace's mooste noble progenitors, situatid in thees
parties, with the most reverende father in God, the Archebisshoppe of
Casshell, and the Bishoppes of Waterford and Ossory, to annexe
herunto ther sealis: and suche of the said gentilmen as can write
have subscribid ther names with ther propper handes ; and suche of
them as can not write have caused ther names to be underwritten.*'

Beseching Almyghtie God to preserve your moste excellent Hishness
longe and tryumphantly to reigne, to the suertie and comforte of them
and all other your Majestie's true subjectes. Dated the xxvi. day of

against those ciniell rebels, who by murdering, banishing, and inslaving
our said subjects, do exercise an unmerciful! tiranny over them ; and to
this end wee have authorised Sir George Hamilton, knight and Barronet,
to inconrage such ofhcers of that nation as are out of service to repaire

you to lett them understand, that as wee well know, a principall motive
which may induce them to appear in our assistance, is their care of the

find that in acknowledgment of their so seasonable a reflection upon the
now state of our affaires, wee will even in that point extend our favour

pressing a war with France, «)S tbev did the last meeting, that till now
one could hardly say they would do anything towards it but to oblige
France to begin with us lirst. But now with much ado, a vote passed
this afternone for to give his Majestic a million, which will be sumcient
to sett us a worke, though more had been better, and now we are a
going out of hand to raise the full 30,000 men, that is, so sone as money

being to have a rfr^iment of horse, must aske of you one that is under
your command in Iriand to be my Major, if ho be willing to have that
employment. It i> Major Bussell,^ that has now a Company of Foott

unwilling to leave a eertaine for an uncertaine command, I desire that
you would lett him 'cnepe his company for some tyme. I meane till we
are haitily engaged in the war, and then you may dispose of his
company. But this I must desire of you that when that is done
he may have a proinisse of a company againe when the peace shall be
made, of which I beleve there will be little probability when once the
war shall be begun, which now 1 beleve will be very sone, for after
this vote, and the French attaquing some place, which T beleve we
shall here of by the next letters, the war will breake out whether one
will- or no* And if the Marques de Bourgemaine, had done his part as

1680, November 24. Edinburgh. — This bearer Sir Charles Hamilton

an occation of writing to you as by him, for what one might write by
the ^vay of England would be subject to be opend, and what one says
misconstrued, the never so innocent, for what may not we expect when
both of us are so falsely accused and slandred as we are, when, God
knows, if all his Majesties subjects had that duty and loyalty for him
that we have, he could not be in those straights and so abominably used
as he is, and betray[ed] by some of those he has most trusted. I hope
that Lord Sunderlands and others^ voting for the bill against me, and
entring their dissents, because it was rejected, will have that good effect
with his Majestie as to open his eis and lett him see that they are myne
enemys, and have been basely left by them, and that he may expect the
same usage from them. I have written my mind freely to him upon this

by Mr. Keightly, Mr. Sheridon,* and others, who hava come hether,

continue in England, I make no doubt all will go very well, and I hope
what has been done here will encoui-age people there, and lett his Majestie
see that resolution and sticking lo his old friends will secure him against
all his enemys. Lord Hyde has been here and is gone back againe, and
I am not to go up to give his Majestie an account of his affairs here till
nfter Lord Shaftsburys tryal be over,^ which is to be next month. I
confetjse J thought it would have been for his Majesties service, for me
immediately upon the rising of the Parliament here to have gone up,
tho it had been but for a few days, but his Majestie was of another mind
and I must obay. I beleve tho Parliament will rise by the ende of this

with what has been done. 1 must now recomend to you the concerns

their friends in England, and tis now to be hoped his Majestic will make
good use of it, and to settle his affairs, as he need not be so much con-
cerned whom they shall chuse another yeare. At His Majesties first
going to Newmarkett, I was somewhat allarumed, at the report of some
oficrs [which] were made to His Majestie by the party,' and great en-
deavers were used to perswade him they would serve him, many of the
jockes were for this, and poor Lord St. Albans^ as busi in it as any
body els, which I do not wonder at knowing the dealings he has all ways
had, with many of the Presbiterians, but now I hope that is over and
sure his Majestie cannot be deceved by them againe, and I am sure he
is master if he pleases and may support himself without any other help

this has been the first oportunity I have had to answer it, and to tell yon
that I am very glad to find by it that the valne of lands rises as you say
they do in Ireland, for both King and subject find the benefitt of it. As
for what is doing at London, as to the farming of the revenue of Irland,
I know little of it, more than that Sir James Shaen has made proposals
and that Lord Eanelagh objects against them, but I wonder you are not
advised with in it. I am sure it ought to be. I am a stranger too [as]
to what is like to become of me, not knowing yett whether I shall be
sent for to London or stay here, but now I thinke a few days will cleere
that^ for if I have not leave to go up speedily, I am to ezpecte to remaine
hare a great while. My friends there presse my going up, and to speake
plainly to you, I have reuson to beleve if it had not been for Lord
Halifax I had been with His Majestie before now, he being the only
man I know in power that opposes it. I do not know what creadet he
has had in other things, but in this, to my cost, I am sensible he has. I
pray Grod he may not shew another marke of his power and perswade
His Majestie to call a Parliament In England, which at this tyme would
I feare prove fatal [bo]th to the King and the monarky. 'Tis likly by
that tyme this getts to you you may know whether that will be or not.
As for the newse of this place, the Parliament here is ajourned till the

17 cf April, by proclamatioD, and all things here are now very quiatt,
for nil what passed at Lanerck some tyme sinse, and I thinke like to
continue so; though some people thinke there may be a rising, in the
western parts of this kingdome in the spring. All care is taken that
can be to prevent it, and to prepare for it. This bearer. Lord Boscomon,^
can give so full an account of things here, that I need say no more of
them. He has desired me to recomend him to you, that when a vacancy
of a troupe of Horse happne« you would [g]ive it him, if you have not
former [en]gagements. I have now no more to say but to assure you
[you] shall still find mo the same to you."

Dublin ere your Grace left it which I hope may in some measure excuse
the presumption of thi!< adresse.

** When I waited on your Grace last at Dublin, your Grace was
I)leased to expresse your thoughts of speakeing with the Lord Ohancelour,'
and his Lady, concerning the marriage of theire sonne to my daughter,
but the indisposition they bothe then laboured under, blasted the hopes
of those favours which I expected to have reaped from your Graces
intended mediation, and finde since by letters from Mr. Boyle that he
cannot upon any tearmes obtaine his mothers blessing, but still sufEers
under her very high displeasure which is fomented (I feare) by some^
that will hereafter appeare no freinds to that ffamilie. I humbly begg
pai'dou if I put your Grace in. minde of your former intentions: the
young couple are in much unsetlednesse, and at greate expence,
the burden of the later is layed wholy on me, which I should
not so tamely have taken up, neither have so early owned my
daughter (after so greate an act of disobedience) more than the Lord
Gbancelour and his Lady did theire sonue, but that the respect I have
to his Grace as a person above me, made me thinke it but good manners
to f orgeve fkst, which has brought that charge upon me which (I feare)
will not be considered when the portion is to be paido. A word, or a
line, from your Grace to the young gentleman's mother will I hope bring
a double blessing back with it, one from the mother upon her sonne,
another from God upon your Grace as the peace-maker, and encrease
his da3'ly pi-ayers for your Graces prosperity who is, may it please your

other resolutions, relateing to Ireland, than the former one^, onely in
this particular, which is the occasion of Mr. Bider's journey. Both his
Majesty and all of us here seem convinced, that if some speedy care is
not taken, the present Farm of the Revenue in that kingdome must
break in those hands which now manage it, but yet wee are sure every
thing there is so safe under your Grace's inspection, that wee do with
an implicite fibith conclude the Farm is so too, if your Grace shall
continue to be of that opinion. I am sorry to find, your Grace does not
think itt fitt to call a Parliament there, till you have seen tho issue of
one here, because, as I think, that kingdome is in more danger of a ffor-
reigner, than this, so there is more need to quicken their defence, which
I fear cannot be without a I^arliament. I doubt not but your Grace

authority of your Lordship's interposition could have overcome, for the
popular humor of choosing no courtiers was gotten among the young

not been owned by your Lordship. For all which I am very much
bound to your Grace, and the manner of doing mc this favour by con-
triving so happy an expedient for conveying it to mee, hath exceedingly
improved the obligation.

** There can bo no progress made in the Irish bills which have been
transmitted untill the approaching session of Parliament be over, for that
buisiness takes up all our care and all our thoughts at present. But
that which fills the town with discourse, is the suddain departure of the
Duke and Dutchess [of York] beyond sea by his Majesty's command, to
which they pay so absolute a submission that they have embarqued
against wind and weather and are now tiding it down the river.

1. the assurance of one that speakes his thoughts sometimes perhaps too

Which having donne, I must begge your Grace to believe that I
should by no meanes have fayled to give you an account of the late
proposalls delivered in, and in a manner accepted, relating to the
revenue of that kingdome, had I been acquainted with them. But the
proposer, who certainly is Sir James Shaen, made it his first request to
the king, that neither your Grace nor myself should be acquainted
with his proposall, alleadging that you were not well knowing in the
revenue then, and that I was a party in itt. Of this woilhy request
of his, I had, after some tynie, notice ; and thereupon I made my com-
playnt to the king, who, after some tliscourse, assured mee that both
your Grace and myself should be thoroughly acquainted with the whole
matter, before he would make any positive agreement. In the meane
tyme, 1 finde the proposer is kind as to my particular, for he offers to
give me a generall discharge as to my undertaking and fifeteen thousand
pounds in ready money ; soe that if his notions take I am to have
quiett and money, which are two things I earnestly desyre. But I
have great reason to feare the publiquo will not be halfe soe well ac-
commodated by him ; for tho he proposes to give three hundred thousand
pounds a year for our revenue from the first of May last, yett I am
confident there is nothing lease in his designe, nor can I bring myself
to believe that those who pay 240,000/. a year soe ill, will be able to
pay 60,000/. a year more; neither can I see the reason why they should
increase their rent for the remayning year and a halfo of their time
after the rate of 60,000/. a year, which in shorte is making the king
a present of 90,000/., if they pay what they offer, and that is a summe
which I am sure is several! thousand pounds more than they are all
worth. In shorte, for ought as I can yett see or hear, I am humbly
of opinion the great designe of the proposer is to compound the sixty
thousand pounds which he and partners are to pay after Christmasse
1682, and to gett the revenue into their hands without any cheque or

nonconformists, he hath of his own accord come over hither, and dis-
€0vered to my Lord Chancelor of Scotland, and to me, several important
matters which he is ready to impart to your Lordship. I am therefore
desired by his Lordship to recomend the bearer to your Lordships favour

1682, Dec. 12. Londonderry.— '^ I make bold once more to trouble
your Grace with an inclosore.' It is the copy of a letter which I received
yesterday. I have largely discourst the gentleman who brought it
concerning all the contents of it, who tells me that he hath very good
cause to believe that there is a dangerous designe now driving on
between the fanaticks of Ireland, and their brethren in Scotland and
England. That they have had lai*ge collections from several of their
Conventicles for the redemption of Christian slaves, but that the mony
hath been remitted to London to buy armes, in hopes to deliver them*
selves from the slavery of law and government. He tells me likewise
that he hath been credibly inform'd by some of the party that the next
spring they expect a ship well loaden with these comodityes at Port-
aferry, in the county of Down, or somewhere there about. In comparing
all circumstances, the onely thing that amuseth me is why he should
first goe to Scotland to reveal a conspiracy here in Ireland, and not
rather apply hiinselfe to the State hei*e. If your Grace shall think it
of concern to send for him, perhaps he may give a satisfactory account
of that, and several other particulars. I perceive he is a person verf
indigent ; but if my Lord Deputy, and Your Grace command his
attendance, I will take care to furnish him for his journey. I humbly

desperat and bloody as any the world has, but there not being any
person of quality to head them in these parts, I take them not to be very
dangerous to the government at present, unles there were a rebellion
elsewhere. I doe verily believe that all their ministers (though some of
them are silly enough) were acquainted with the Plot, and the reasons
for my thinking soe are, because Mr. Trayle, a leading furious preacher
among them, did upon the first notice we had of the Plot steale away by
night from his bowse and as I am told absconds himselfe either in the
county of Downe or Antrym, and because there are but a few even of
the meanest sort of people which are not well furnished with swords

have not met [in] publique meetings, but they say that they doe this
onely for a small [tyme and] that they intend to peticion for a ^ture

that I cannot but wish he were in our Parliament House and in the

because there was nothing to be attended here, but the influences we
might receive from the measures taken by the Scotch Parliament* What
that assembly will do seems yet uncertain. Their countrymen here do
promise us they will end better than they have begun. But by what I
can observe there is little appearance of their falling into the same suc-
cession, and how far our religious and civil interests will be exposed by
this time must show. I do all I can among the persons I converse with
to show the wisdom and necessitie of their continueing in an union with
England, and they seem to be sensible of it, but they think there are
grievances which ought first to be redressed. I pray God to direct all
for the best, and to send your Grace speedily and safely to us and to

don't ^ee how it will be practicable to demand the continuance of the

strates that the same arreare that was last Parliament askt still reooains
unsatisfyed, how can your Graces freinds press for new supplyes, and I
fear it will not only be plain that the same debt still remains but a
greater is since added to it.

'' Besides, if this is not don from the Throne att the opening of the
Parliament, the same people whoe gave your Grace that unreasonable
oposition the last year will think themselves justifyed and that not only
Sir William Robison was in the wrong in making the demand he did,

[57.] Duke of Schonbekg and Leinstbr to Obhokde.

1705, Sept. 15. Hillendon. — ^*^ I know that Captain Brooke who
went my aide de camp into Portugal is no stranger to your Grace,
having heretofore beene a captain in your owne regiment, so that I
need not trouble you with a narration of his long service, nor the
justice he may pretend to for a belter command than what he now has ;
but haveing served me several yeares fully to my satisfaction, I may
with the greater assurance recommend him to your favour.

^' My Lord, Captain Brooke tells me that whilst he was with me in
Portugal (for which he had your Grace's leave) the major of the
regiment in which he serves died, and he being eldest captain conceives
it was his right to succeed him. However because of his absence the
Major's post was given to a younger captain. I cannot say but when
raiments are in actual service preferments are commonly given to
officers on the spott without regard to the seniority of those that on
private pretensions are absent. But I hope your Grace will judge
Captain Brook's case much different ; for his regiment was in quarters
in A peaceable kingdome whilst he was employd in the publick service
abroad which seems to me to improve his pretensions. Therefore I
earnestly make it my request to your Grace that you will take him into
your care and grant him in the mean sime a breviatt for Lieutenant
Collonell which will only ^ve him his due post in the regiment but will
add to the many obligations I already have/'

propose to setle a good ooUonie of people in, and for faires and marketts

the plague being in Kerry which was a mere iBction and as groundless as

^' As to the business of Parliament I perceive my Lord Bishop of
Killaloe is of opinion there ought to be a new one, and hee hath pro-

his opinion, and since your Grace's friends differ in their sentiments
about it I have desired a list of the present memliers which when I have,
together with some others of your Graces most faithful! servants will
strictly examine and when we have made the most exact calculation we
can, and have heard the reasons of both sides, I will make as faithful!
a report as I can to your Grace.

** I take it for granted by what your Grace was pleased to intimate to
me that the Chief Justice' of the Queen's Bench here is to be removed
and that Sir Richard Cox is to succeed him, but I beg leave to represent
to your Grace that one alteration in that Court wiU not be sufficient,
for Sir Bicliard Cox will not be able to do tliat service to the Crown
which is expected from him if some able and experienced lawyer be not
put into the place of Justice MacCartney who I think is by no means
fit to fill that place he is in. Mr. Justice Coot^ behaves himself like a
fair honest gentleman. Here are very ingenious gentlemen who are
very well qualifying for that place if either of them can be prevailed
upon to accept it. I will try what I can do if I have your Graces
commands for that purpose.

that (since taking the air in the country for a night or two is absolutely 1710.
necessary for the preservation of my health) your Grace would be
pleased to give me leave to ly sometimes at Chappell-Izod till your

sincerely follow before any one. However, if I could be so happy as to
assure your Grace by word of mouth the reasons I have to quit my
command, I should flatter myselfe to give your Grace such reasons as
perhapps would convince you that 'twas not in my power to doe other-
wise now ; (tho I had a commission of Major Geucrall in the king of
Portugal's service, and even paid by his Majesty) yet I can't now
pretend to that post, not being then a Protestant, which your Grace is
sensible does alter the case. My Lieutenant Collonell, Mr. Fitzmaurice,
is Ko uneasy to me that he does things which are unwarrantable but too
tedious to trouble your Grace with. If I continue the service I beg
the favour of you that he may be removd since I can't answer for my

King Charles the Second to possess the chiefry of his estate then lost

noe value to you, sir, and being certainly informed your mother had it
Fm persuaded you can give me the truest account of this little affaire
and expect it from your generous and noble way of thinking. For
though small the advantage of this chiefry given to the two Lord
Ivealis may be in effect, itt would be very essential to such as are
depending on pensions from this Court. I beg ten thousand pardons for

the late Queene that his mannors and lands which are in his owne
hands, or lett by him at will or for yeares, might be freed from all
cesses and imposicions (subsedyes only excepted) her Majestic gave
direction therein by her letters dated the last of June in the eleventh
yeare of her raigne, vpon condiction that he should forbeare to leavy and
take such proffitts of the freeholders and inhabitants of the countyes of
Kilkenny and Tipperary for his expenccs, as (sic) was enformed, he
and his aunccstors had used ; wherein there was further direction geven
also by her Majestie's order, by the Lords and others of her Highnes
Privy Counsell, of the twenty-second of February, 1586[ — 7], and in like
Borte order was taken by the then Lord Deputyes of that realme and the

freeing of his Lordship's lands, which si thence that tyme hath bin
boserved.

Forasmuch as the said Erie made humble suite to his Majestic
for the continuance of that order, being a nobleman that allwaies per-
formed very greate and faithfuU service to the Crowne, his Majestic is
pleased the like course shall be continued unto him, and that the said
Erie's lands shall be free from all cesse and imposictions (subsedy ex-
cepted) in such sorte as hath bin permitted sithence the former orders
were sett dow[ne] upon the letters of the late Queene* and other [oblii,']

of Earl of Ormonde with his daughter and son- in-law.

1613. " Wee have bin lately advertised that our right trusty and right well-

beloved cousin, the Earle of Ormond, by the lewde and dishonest prac-
tizes of some aboute him, hath conceaved so deepe a dislike against the
Lord Viscount Butler, his sonne in law, that he lately caused liim, with
much show of aunger and unkindnes, to remove from his house, and
contynueing still to expresse the bittemes of his hnrte towards him,
intends (as wee are enformed) to diminishe the revenewes of his
Earledome by making long leases at undervallewes, and to chardge it with
other encumbrances, much to the prejudice of the said Viscount, who is
to succeede him by hereditary discent, both in the possessions and honor
of the said Earledome.

'* Endorsed : From his Majesty to to my Lord Deputy, in the behalf
of the Lord Viscount Butler."

[t?.] Sib Abthub Chichesteb, Lord Deputy, and Council in
Ibeland to the Fbivy Council, England, 1615.

^'Maie it please your Lordshipps, Wee have lately receaved his 1615.

Majestie's letters of the 14*^ of Marche last, whereby wee are required
without dehde lo reestablish e the Lord Dingwall and the Lady Elizabeth
his wife or their assignes in the castle and towne of Cloughgrenan, and
the lordshippe of Cloughy, nnd of all other the mannors, castles, and
lands, whereof the Lord Viscount Butler was possessed at the tyme of
his death, of which Captain Thomas Butler had unduly dispossest the
said Lady Elizabeth and detayned the same with force, which his
Majestic much dislykeih.

May it please your Lordshipps to be remembred, that uppon
a petition exhibited to your Lordshipps there by the sayd Lady
Elizabeth, you directed your letters to mee, the Deputy, which I
receaved at my being in England, whereby your Lordshipps directed
mee to restore the sayd Lady Elizabeth to the possession of the castle
and towne of Cloughgrenan, and all the lands before mencion<!4
which were then in the possession of the sayd Captain Thomas Butler,
which your Lordshipps letters, together with letters from myself, I
presently sent to the then Lords Justices (myself then attending his
Majestic) desireing them to take present order for the due accomplish-
ment of the contents of your Lordshipps' said letters.

Whereupon the Lords Justices directed their commandement to the said
Captain Thomas Butler, straight ly chargeing him to restore the possession
of the said lands, as your Lordshipps required, but either by negligence
of those who followed the matter, or delayes used by Captain Butler, the
possession was not restored untill my arrivall here, and soone after a
complaynt thereof being made unto mee, I sent for the said Captain
Butler, and examyning the matter at the Councell Boord, it happened by

.76

Mia^ib'ov certaine depositiones tokon hj our spetiall direction that Captain Butler

. Okhokdb. had unduelj gayned the possession of the castle of Cloughgrenan, but it

1615. likewise appeared that the Lord Yiscounte's mother, who was in

possession of Cloughgrenan before Captain Butler entered into it, did of

her own free will and consent give the possession of a house in the

sajd towne to Captain Bntler.

Whereupon, wee conceaved this order that the Ladj Elizabeth
should be restored to the possession of the castle, which, in onr
opiniones. Captain Butler had not fairelie gotten, and that he should
keepe the possession of the house delivered u[nto] him by the
Lady Dowager, mother to the Lord Viscount, vpon bui[lding]
whereof he hath since bestowed some cost ; which our order was soe
displeaseing to both parties as neither of them would call to the
Clarke of the Councell for it ; and soe possession hath contynued in
Captain Butler as it was at fii*st gotten without force, and soe kept
untill the receipt of his Majestie's foresayd letters.

In accomplishment whereof, wee have now directed warrant to the
Sheriff of the county of Caterlagh to deliver the possession of all the lands
before recyted to the Lord Dingwall imd the Ladj his wife, or to their
assignes ; yet, never thelesse, because wee hold it verie agreeable to justice
and our duties, not to leave him whom wee have dispossessed, shewing
forth a title by conveyance from the Lord Viscount Butler, without a
speedie remedie by course of law, to trie his right, the rather that there
hath not appeared unto us anie title on the parte of the Lord Dingwall
or his Lady, we conceaved an order that Captain Thomas Bntler should
file his declaitition as of this tetirme, whereunto the Lord Dingwall and
his Lady, or their agents, should appeare gratis, and plead the general!
issue, without taking exception to anie matter of forme but to stand
upoun the meere right ; and for that there are not a competent nomber
of sufficient freehoulders in the county of Caterlaghe which is the
proper county, wee ordered that the yssue should be tryed at the King's
Benche barr in Michaelmas tearme next by a jury of the county of
Kildare, being the next indifferent countie to Catherlagh.

And if the Lord Dingwall and his Lady, or their agent, should by anie
meanes procure a stale in the proceedings of the triall or make any unne-
cessary delay es, that then the possession should be reestablished in Captain
Butler, to which order (which wee hould to be verie just and reasonable)
the agent of the Lord Dingwall would not consent, alleadging that he
had no authoritie from the Lord Dingwall and his Iiady soe to doe ;
which is the cause of this bean*er, Captain Butler's repayre to your
Lordshipps at this tyme, in regard that, in accomplishment of his
Majestie's pleasure, wee have given absolute warrant for delivering of
the possession of all the lands mentioned in his Majestie's letters, and all
other lands whereof the Lord Viscount died seised, unto the Lord
Dingwall, his lady, or their agent, which otherwise wee would not have
done unlesse they had consented to such a leading order for a speedy
triall of the right, as before is expressed, which wee hould to be soe
expedient and just, as it ought not to be denyed.

Thus haveing trulie related oure proceedings in tliis matter, wee
humblie beseeche your Lordshipps to acquaint his Majestic therewith,
to whom, and to your Lordships, Avith all humility wee leave the further
consideration thereof. The gentleman is poore, and not soe well able to
undertake this journey as (in respect of his former goode deservings)
wee could wish hee were ; and, therefore, in his behalf wee humbly praie
your Lordships' favourc, that with some convenient t^peede he maie
be dispatched.

swerved from any t hinge which we ought in honor as a just judge to

bumble request, and as a token of our grace and favor to that house^
we have bene pleased since the perfectinge of onr award to cause the
Lady Dingwall to release unto him.

No we as the promise made unto us by the Lady Dingwall to quitt
presently to the Earle of Ormond the joincture which she hath in the
landes belonginge to her late deceased husband, the Lord Viscount of
Tnllyophelym, was one motive unto us to assigne her so large a porcion,
soe it doth stand both with reason and justice, the busines beinge ended,
that wee should see that promise accordinglie performed ; theis are there-
fore to require you to cause all such landes as the suid Lady is interessed
in by vertue of her said joincture to be forthwith delivered into the

with, may appeare unto you. We doe therefore require you to take order
that our cheif barren or some one other of the barrons, may take ac-
knowledgment of the said writting of assignement to our use and see
that the same be inrolled in our Exchequer there ; and that such comis-
sions and process of extente, as in such cases are U8ual, be forthwith
issued for the extending and seising into our handes of all the castells,
manners, landes, tenementes and hereditamentes whereof the said Earle
of Ormond is seised or possessed in that our kingdome, in use or pos-
session, whereby the rentes and profittes may be answeared aud paied to
us or to such person or persons as Wee sbali appoint.

And also that writtes of ad venditionem apponas be likewise awarded,
for the selling of such leases, goodes and chattells, whereof the said
Earle is or shalbe found to be possessed in that oar kingdome, for ejid
towardes the satisfaction of the said debt ofone hundred thousand pounds.
And Wee doe further require you to take present order that our learned
councell there doe prosecut our said service with effect that all the
evidences, deedes, and charters touching the said Thomas, late Earle of
Ormondes landes may be sequestred, to be safely kept untill a division
of the same be made, according to our said award.

And likewise We doe hereby further require you to putt the said
Lord and Lady Dingwall, or their attorney, in possession of the toune
and landes of Castell Kelly, the same word, Castell, being rased and
left out and the word Kelly remaining therein, for that the same was
only a mistaking of the clercke that writt our said award.

And further that you doe forthwith call before you the Lord
Viscount Thurles, and to make knowen unto him his contempt
comitted for receiving and detayning of the rents taken up by his
direction of the landes assigned to the Lord Dingwall, contrarie
to our said award, and that thereupon you require him to make payment

of all the same rentes to tb« Lord Dingwall, or to sucb as he shall ap* mas^xb'ot
pointy within soe manie dales as you shall think fitt, and if hee shall re- Obmo^db.
fiise soe to doe that then you comitt him for his contempt until he hath \^i^^

paied the same accordingly.

And whereas the late Viscount Butler was seised of certnine
mannors and landes in that our realme, and at his death was indebted
to sundrie persons in divers sommes of money> which as well by
our said award as by the said Earle his former agreement and bond
is dae and payable by him, whoe nevertheless doth neglect the ac-
complishing of our said award, or his or his owne agreement, Wee doe,

"James Rex. — Right trusty and welbeloved we greet you well. 1620.

Whereas wo have heretofore at the humble and ernest suit, as well of the
Earle of Ormcnd and the Lord Dingwall, new Earle of Desmond, and the
Lady Elizabeth, his wife, as also of Sir John Everard, knight, and
^bert Roth, esq., two of the feoffees of the lands of the late Earle of
Ormond, taken uppon us to make an arbitrary end of the questions and
differences, concerning the lands and hereditaments of the late Earle of
Ormond, which we were the rather induced unto, for that we did fore-
see the ^reate contentions and manifold suits which were like to grow
between the said honorable personages so neer in bloud and of so noble
a familie, which we were willing by all meanes to prevent, as for that Sir
John Everard and Robert Roth did both confesse unto us that the ant lent
entayles of the lands of the said Earle of Ormond to the heires males were
barred and that the said Lady Elizabeth might overthrow the house of
Ormond, unles we would be pleased to take the same into our determina-
cion, which they did both joyntly togeather in treat us to doe; and, at
length, after many dayes, and much tyme spent in heoring both the said
parties their counsell and allegations on both sides^ we have, by the
assistance of our Chancellor, and the most principall of our judges, and
by the advice and opinion of our learned counsell, made and published
our finall order and award concerning the controversies, which we have
caused to be exemplified under our Great Seale of England.

By which award we have ordered that the Lady Desmond, and the
heired of her body, shall have and enjoy diverse lands therein pnrticularly
mentioned, and that the Earle of Ormond and his feoffees shall make such
assurances thereof as by their learned counsell shall be advised.

And after we had published the said award, although we did conceive
the same to be a<;reeable to the justice and equitie of the cause, yet, at
the earnest re(]uest of the Earle of Ormond, and as a token of our grace
and favour to that house, we were pleased to cause the Lady Desmond
to remit and I'elcase unto him diverse manors of good valew, which we had
before awarded to the said Lady, wherowith the Earle of Ormond seemed
to be well satistied; bat yet, neverthelesse, he hath, in great contempt of
us and our royall autlioritie, refused and still doth refuse to seale such
assurances as hath beene tendred nnto him, on the behalf of the said
Lady of Desmond, according to our award.

u 73529. F

Miju^is'oF ^^^ whereas the like assurances have beene tendred to Sir
OsMoiTDB. John Everard and Robert Both, as feoffees aforesaid, they have also
16S0. refused to porfect the same, pretending that they are very willing
to doe whatsoever doth lye in them for the execucion of our award,
but that they cannot safely execute these assurances unlesse they
shall bee enjoyned thereunto by some legall course and bee discharged
against the said Earle, and the heircs males.

And, therefore, wee are graciously pleased, and doe hereby require yon,
that, uppon a bill to be exhibited by the said Earle of Desmond and the
Countesse, his wife, into oar Court of Chauncery there, against the said
Earle of Ormonde and his feoffees for the performing of our award, you
take speedy order (having due regard to our honour and proceedings
therein) to strengthen our said award with the decree of that court,
according to justice and equitie, and that you cause our award in every-
thing to be speedily performed, and if faire meanes will not serve, that you
see the same done by correction of them that shall withstand the same«
And for your so doing these our letters shall bee your waiTant.

Gyven under our signet, at our Palace of \Yestminster, the twelveth day

1681. " Right tnistie and right welbeloved wee greete you vreVL. Whereas by

our lettres of the 12th of June, 1620, directed to our Chauncellor there, wee
required him to take order to strengthen our award made betwixt the
Earle of ( )rmond and the Earle and Countesse of Desmond, by decree in
our court of Ohauncerie there, to the end that the feoffees of the said
Earle of Ormond, accordinge to their owne desire might be thereby
secured against the said Earle and his heires males, if in performance of
the said award they did make such conveyance to the Ck>untesse of Des-
mond of the landes allotted unto her, as in justice and equitie they ought.

Forasmuch as wee understand that such a decree was accordinglie made,
and that the said feoffees, Sir John Everard and Robert Rooth, have
disobaied the same, for which contempt they stand comitted, notwith-
standing that when they were last here, they pretended a willingness to
execute the said assurance, if by some legal course they might be enjoyned
thereunto, and for that pur{)08e obtained our leave to return thither.

Theis are therefore to require and authorize you to send the said Sir John
Everard and Robert Rooth hither againc, under the custodie of some such
minister as you may tiiist with them, to the end that they remayninge
here in restraint, may bee maile sensible what it is to disobey a decree in
court, grounded upon our just award, and to delude us with shewes of
perfecting srch as5?urances as were demanded of them, havinge noe such
purpose.

Now, for that (he said Earle hath, by writinge under his hande and

upon his honor to make reall performance of the same on his parte, wee
have beene graciously pleased to forge tt his former error and disobedience,
and according to onr accustomed goodnes, wee have released him for the
present from his imprisonment here ; and are resolved that the proceed-
ings upon the saide extent, for the forfeiture of the saide bonde^, shall be
mitigated against him there, and that the rents and insues of all such
lands, annuafl profits, leases, and other hereditaments extended upon the
saide bonde, as by the intention of our said awarde, are to remaine to the
said Earle of Ormond, shall not, duringo his conformity, be paid into
the Exchequer, but sequestred into the hands of our Lord Chancelor
and Vice-treasurer of Irelande, or of Buch indifferent persons, as they
shall, of their owne especiall knowledge, make choice of, to be by them
safely kept, till, upon the execucion or such conveyances and acts in law

those rents, which, by this our direction shall come to the sequestrators
handes^ there shall bee made over hither to the saide Earle of Ormond,
towards his present maintenance and occasions here after the I'ate of one
thousand pounds by the yeare, and the first paiment to be made out
of the first receipts which shall come in out of his lands, leases, and

[16.] Cha^rles I. to LoBD DKPUTr of Ireland, 1626-7.

1626-7. ** Bight trustie and well beloved cousin and counsellour wee greet

you well. Whereas our most deare father of blessed memory was
graciously pleased by his letters of the 26 of December, 1627, directed

to his then deputy of that our kitigdome, to signifie that our right trustie
and right well beloved cousin the Earle of Ormonde, and the Earle and
Countcsse of Desmond, being detained here, by our said father's eom-
aundement about the difference depending betweene them, noe suits, of
what kind soever, should be commenced or proceeded in, against them or
any of their tenants, concerning their possessions in that kingdome dur-
ing their absence from thence, untill their business might be soe com-
posed as that they might be both licensed to depart from hence, to looke
into the state of their affaires.

And whereas wee have alsoe by our letters required you to give order
that all proceedings in any suits depending or to be moved in our Court
of Wards there, concerning our owne titles and tenures, should be stayed
for a tyme, that the said Earle and Countesse may be there, to
attend their owne causes; neverthelesse, wee are informed by the
humble peticion of the said Earle and Countesse of Desmond, that
one Dermod O'Doyle, a butcher, hath lately commenced suite in our
Court of Chancery there, against the peticioners tenant, upon a
pretended title by his purchase since the awards made by our said Either,
unto certaine lands in the countie of Wickloe, awarded to the said Coun-
tesse ; and that the peticioners not having yet recovered the evidences
belonging to them, the same being not yet had nor recovered from the
Earle of Ormonde, they are in danger to lose the lands in question, and
soe, by degrees, all the lands awarded to the Countesse, if any man shall
challenge the same ; they having not the evidences to defend their title
to the same, which may turne to their great prejudice.

And, therefore, being carefull, that the said Earle of Desmond, who
was an ancient servant of our said father, and is a nobleman well esteemed
of by ourself, may receive noe such prejudice in his estate during his
absence, wee are graciously pleased (having already stayed the suits that
eoncemed ourself) hereby to require you to give order to our Chancellor
and Court of Chancery in that our renlme, not to proceed in the said suite
commenced by the said DonnoU [«tc] O'Doyle, nor in any other to be
commenced by him at any tyme, touching any of the lands or hereditaments
awarded to the said Countesse of Desmond.

And it is our further pleasure, that all other suits concerning any of the
lands allotted to the Countesse of Desmond by the foresaid award, shal be
staied untill the peticioners may receive the said evidences from the Earl&
of Ormond, according to the said award. And these our letters, etc.

Esmonde to be alwaies one.

And whereas the rents now due alredie uppon all the said lands

1644, May 24. Derry. — " I have long expected your comming 1644.

downe to agree with me about those stuffes and clothes which I have
kept in my hands for you though this place affords chapmen. It
may prove much to my prejudice, and all the returnc I expect by
this bearer is but your peremptoi-ie answer, though I hold myselfe
upon your failet warrantably disingaged. I have received those parcels
of cloth that were staged' in Scotland, so that as I guesse there will be
about 600 pounds worth of' cloth. If you thinke to comme by sea,
(which will prove best,) Sit Robert Stewart and Sir William Stewart
are provided with the same corambdities, and I have t[aken] them up,
that it might be worth & barque comming about.

I beleeve you here mdre news in Dublin of those parts then [we] that
are upon the place, as that we were high mutineers and I know not what.
Sir, you have known me long, nay lately you remember though I used no
invective language [that hath] in his judgment then opposed this Covenant
more. 1 con [Id wis»he] you all about Dublin understood it as we in
Ulste[r doe]. I civer profest to wisshe well to the king's cause, and I
h[old wi]ll never be the weaker now I am bound unto his tr[oops]
happinesse by oath.

Have a charitable opinion of us, and I beleve shortly you shall
receave from us all such abundant satisfaction by somme publique
instiiiinent that both you and we shall be all of one mind for the
advancing eo just a cause. I have not yet taken it, but am within
24 bowers of doing it.

News from England, in letters of the 24 of Aprill to myselfe directed, —
that the Fnrliament prospers extreamely, that the king set up his standard
at Marleburgh but tooke it downo, and hath [distributed] his army into
garrisons.

" My Lord of Essex is 40,000 [strong] by himsclfe, going with
articles of peace to his Majestie. Hopt[on is r]oated by Waller, but
rallied to 8,000 again, but Waller [is] double to him in strength.
Fairfaxe hath routed B[ellasfe]. Newcastle, not above 3,000 strong, the
Scotch pursuing him with 20,000. The Lord Calender marcht to

2. — To the Marquis of Ormonde, Lord Lieatenant of Ireland.^

i. — [1644.] — [Derry.] — " Things are brought to that eztremitie thai
my regiment and officers ha^e taken the Covenant, to save not the little
was left but [li]fe itself, such is the violence of the people. They are,
upon my reputation, what they were before. I have with much hasard
put it off, in which if I doe not suddainly resolve them they ha?e told
me they will leave neither wife nor child worth a smock. The monies
I had are all in stock and merchandise, supposing once to have done
. . . which lyeth ... of their hands.

I may happily [makje a shift, if your excellencie command me, to
^scape with my life to Dublin, but must leave wife and children
to famine and derision insteed of charitie. No ways to prevent
this but by taking the Covenant, which the ministers are contented to
[adm]it me unto, only swaring [the] title viz.: to maintaine religion,
the honor [and] happinesse of the kinge, the peace and safety of
the three kingdomes ; and [that] further, if' your Lordship give
leave to [me], will I take it, and when I, as . . . unsuspected,
may use [my] liber tie, I will make a regiment [that will be] ready to
obey your Lordship's commands, and my Covenant to . . . and

himselfe with that . . • and nubosome their secrets to your
Lordship. Flow with their heiffer if [you] will read their riddle.

I entreat your Excellencie my messenger be not delayed, for I feare I
shall be put to hard shifts ; and what your Excellencie says shall be the
rule and guide of your Excellencie's most obliged servant.'*

ii. — 1644[-6,] February 4. Londonderry. — ^** Should* I collect from
outward observations in what aspect I stand in your Excellencie's
favoure, I might be assaulted by many doubts, but when I examine
my own actions and their principles in my soule^ I presume to intitle
myselfe your Lordship's faithful and constant servant.

Had I been lukewarme in his Majestie*s service, I might have retired
unto Dublin and have left a thousand men in armes to have been actuated
by a new head, according to the influence of whose braines it is probable
that new recatechised bodie would have moved. Or had my vasster zeale

refused to hearken unto the discreeter counsaile of my reason, to give a
passionate multitude line whose flames as thej easily catch fire, so will as
soon expire where reason ministers no fewell, I had by breaking bulke
too soone made a forfeiture of my not too fmitlesse resohes.

As for entering into the Covenant a 1,200 witnesses of my carriage
therein are forthcoming, and, by the grace of God, I myselfe and such
as I can either perswade or command shall punctually observe it.
The whole country and regiments were in a fiery contention who
should have the van of reformation. I could not have admittance
into the government of Derry, which I promist unto myselfe as a
sanctuary, for they were forced to Covenant : the remaining worke was
to plunder my souldiers and their quarters. To oppose it I was not
able ; to suffer it not willing. I had no place to march them where
they might be maintained.

Upon advice with my officers, the result was not only to connive at
the soiildierp, who would sweare, out of unavoidable necessitie, but like-
wise to personate something that might continue ourselves in our
respective commands. Upon this, the regiment and divers who yet
waited upon the issue of our actions, rendeyvoused where I came in as
it were accidentally to hear the minister's exposition of it, who was
much more sparing then I had heard him formerly.

When he had concluded, the officers and souldiers seeing me present
would not hold up their hands, as the fashion was, whereupon I
spoke unto them all (and this is the oration happily your Lordship
hath heard of) to this purpose, that the ministers both in church and
privately had declared that there was nothing meant in the Covenant
repugnant to the preface, videlicet, to maintaine the honor and happi-
nesse of the King, the peace and safety of the three kingdomes, and the
defense of our religion, and that therefore such plaine truths begged no
exposition, which would rather intangle than satisfio men's consciences.
If they did expect my opinion and exposition of it, it was briefly thus :
That as for the bodie of the Covenant I could not conceave it but
repugnant unto that which we swore to maintaine, but simply and with-
out any relation unto it, to sweare to maintaine the King's honor and
happinesse, the peace and safety of the three kingdomes, and the defense
of the Protestant religion. I had in the oath of supremacy already
sworne it, and that I would not willingly march with that officer or souldier
into the feild who would not sweare and observe the same, and in this
sense and no otherwise I and you, fellow-sou Idlers, lift up our hands ;
and, to be further obliged by this our act, we doe in the presence of God
and man disavowe, and this, upon the wittnesse of all my officers,
souldiers, and divers others, is the plaine truth.

Truly, my Lord, I find not my conscience anyways troubled by this
act, but for ttie violation of it, which I shall endeavour to avoid; and
this within a few bowers was put to the lest, for a petition signed by
the Covenanters was addrest unto the Synod in Scotland concerning the
ecclesiastical discipline. It was brought to me; I refused it, being
against my oath, as being against the laws and liberties of this
kingdome ; and with me the mayor of Derry, the English inhabitants
of this citie, and my whole regiment concurred. The Praesbyterie is in
all these parts, except in this citie, and where my regiment is quartered.

My Lord, you cannot imagine the strange humours the people are
possest withall, and into what fearefull attempts they would breake
out if not by much moderation supprest. This was fomented by
ministers sent out of Scotland, a taste of whose doctrine your Lordship
will rellish in the mayor's justification.

Itt is easic for men at a secure distance to sweare what maglia nathey
would doe. 'Tis easie to pay his Majestic tribute in good language.
This airie warfar is not active enough for good spirits or those bad
times. I shall chuse to prove my devotions allied to his Majestie's
service to beare in my escutchion two hands active rather than three
mouths gaping.

Next, for breaking the Cessation,^ I must (out of the premises con-
sidered and your designes proposed unto myselfe) submit this to your
Lordship's wise and favourable interpretation. Had I refused to joyne
in that act, I had made myselfe and mine a sacrifice to the multitude.
It is all I aime at to preserve my own command, and to draw iu others,
to be in a posture ready to serve your Lordship when you see a fitting
time to declare yourself e for his Majestic*s honor and happjnesse ; and
therefore all my actions must begge a pardon for the present.

If your Lordship approve not this, let me be honored to know your
pleasure and I shall conforme myselfe, for my life is not dear to me
but to witnesse my duty and loyaltie to my King.

And now, my Lord, to avoid a volume which the occurrences I daily
encounter with would fill up by relation, I humbly offer unto you the
present constitution of our afiaires. Sir Robert Stewart and I have had
somme late discourses in which we have communicated mutually our
minds hitherto reserved unto ourselves. Him I find faithfully his
Majestie's and your Lordship's servant.

Since my comming to the government of DeiTy [was] so much
opposd and that by many [who] petitioned against [it] to the
Parliament, the people are a little quelled. The large promises which
the Covenant assured them into a beleife of performance are failed,
the divisions in Scotland increasing, some parts of the Scotch forces
to be drawn over, the cuntry weary of their heavy burthen, etc.
cause the people to hearken to the judicature of this kingdome, and
to beleve at last those laws and the state of this kingdome must
be their appeale. This melancholy humor of discontent, joyned with
the reviving apprehension of the laws of this kingdome must be wrought
upon. There are not above one or two considerable persons to be
wonne. The chiefe is Lieutenant-Colonel Sanderson, of Sir Robert
Stuart's regiment. His character is thus : A good souldier, and many
yeares a Luitenant-Colonel in Germanic ; he is discontented that his
preferment is no better. All arguments worke not so much upon him,
as a little monie, and an assurance from your Lordship of somme prefer-
ment, or a standing companie. If this man were settled, all Sir Robert's
regiment were sure to him ; the other partie were a bodie without a
head.

My regiment I will answer for, and eight of the ten companies in
Derry. Sir John Conningham, that in Sir William Stewart's absence
commands his regiment, is a man of no action, and Sir Robert and I will
mold him well enough, which we daily are upon, as likewise upon his
officers, who begin to hearken to reason.

Now, my Lord, if this part of the country were reduced to the
obedience of the government of this kingdome, the rest of the North
must, in spite of their best indeavourp. Colonel Hill's regiment of
horse stands well afiected that way, so doth my Lord Con no way's
regiment, and so will Sir William Cole. Our Northerne ai-mie is so
equally poised, that if but one regiment should start it would much
weaken the whole.

* With the Irish Confederates, see " History of the Irish Confederation, and War
in Ireland, 1641-1649." Dablin, 1891.

Therefore, my Lord, I and Sir Bobert are of this opinion : if your j^^S^'ig^,
Lordship would be pleasd to send Sir Patrick Wembs [Wemys] to Obmohsb.
Lisnegarvy as upon an occasional! journie, (to whom Sir Bobert 154415
bath wrotti to that purpose,) I and Sir Bobert would take an occasion
to meet him, and there to understand what your Lordship would
have donne, and in what readinesse your affuires are, and with him
to send a letter to Liutenant-Golonel Sanderson, expressing the report
you have heard of his abilities, and that you impute his former
carriage [to] somme discontents and wants, and lo assure him of
your rccoiumendations to his Majestie, and with the first opportunitie
that he shall have experiment of your good opinion of him, and to
promise him a standing companie, and moreover, to intrust Sir Patrick
Wembs with one 80 peices as a guift from your Lordship unto him,
this, and the letter not to be delivered but by Sir Bobert's aduise and
mine, to which if we assent, we will oblige ourselves to returne your
Lordship such satisfaction that you shall not repent.

My Lord, businesse of this nature cannot be wrought without somme
chardge, the importance will be more 40,000 pounds, and opportunities
slipt are easier sought for then found. I suppose, under favour, delays
are dangerus, for the iron must be struck whilst it is hot ; and in this
long silence of the Parliament the people of themselves are looking
homeward. They are patients welfprsedisposed, and only want animation
from an agent which now may be seasonably brought in from above.

In the next place we are all waiting upon the returne of Sir Henry
Tichburne. Tour Lordship hath a hard game to play as ever was dealt,
a Wolfe's eares are but a ticklish hold. I pray God direct your Lordship
in a matter of that great im])ortance in which your Lordship and
our po.sterities are concerned. Pardon my devotion if I humbly offer
my opinion.

A peace with the Irish is generally a harshe sound to every eare, and
the reason of this is diverse. Som in conscience hold no toleration of
.their religion ; som judge the bloud of their frinds yet unrevenged ;
somme their pei*Bonal losses not to be repaired ; others that it is beyond
the reach of state to provide for our securitie in the future, and not a
few because the cuntry is pleasant, and held too good for them. In
England there are many Adventurers.^

Where this opinion is so universall (and consider what planets rule) it
will be a very unthankfull office of whosoever ingageth himself in this
worke, and the malice be shall contract is better avoided then singly
encountred. Therefore, if theer be a necessitie to transact such a
matter, 'tis wisdoroe to have many sharers, and those of such a nature
as may both preserve your Lordship and themselves.

This, in breife, is by a Parliament in this kingdome ; this will take
both aspersions from his Majestie, which now is considerable when the
people sit on the bench and stand not at the barre; it is a buckler
betwixt your Lordships and laws a posteriori ; and if though many
yeares after any inconvenience should ensue (which Grod forbid) the
violence of our postereties would not deface your tombe as a cabinet
actor of so publique a concernement. Now there is no doubt of
effecting whatsoever the justice of your Lordship's thoughts would

propound. I kuow the composore of jour houee^ the last time I
i3ate. Many of the most violent spirits are away, there are many
Tacant pkces oaght to be supplied by moderate persons. To this
purpose if Sir Maurice Eustace^ cause the darke of the House of
Commons to give him a list of such vacant places, and writs immediately
do issue for new elections, [it] will advance the worke. Heer are many
members in the army that were not formerly present all of a sober temper.

Heer are ten places void which we can make good by legal
elections, and I have wi^ote to Sir Manrtce Eustace to cause writs to be
sent downe, and I shall see them returned, so that there is no dispute
but that the moderate party shall sway all at pleasure. Pray, my Lord,
consider of this point.

The estranging of your Lordship's commands in these pai*ts doth much
difficultete this worke ; for they must be won on by degrees, they must
first smell to the saddle before it be clapt on, and such commands first
presented that carry the very letter of the law and obedience in their
forehead, which at length will ussher in the strictest.

A second course may be, with submission to your Lordship's better
judgment, to call your colonells up to judgment. The picture of a dead
friend will beget remorse, but the living image of authoritio will make
disobedience fcdl doune before it. ^

Besides the ill-disposition of ourselves, something of the breeding
of these present distempers may be ascribed to that necessitated
independancie in marshall affaires, where all colonells commanding
as so many generalJs may prove so many Phaetons in the chariot of the
sun, and how far their counsaile may be intertatned in the treatie of
peace will deserve your Lordship's consideration. Ingage the principal
officers and you ingage the army, and consequentlie the kingdome.

My Lord, I perswade myselfe, this were good policie to send for us
up and som of the field officers.

The ground may be very good it j(pardon my dictating) it were but to
expresse unto us the tender sense yon have of our welbeing, as being
members of this kingdome whose persons and estates must answer to those
laws which we have virtually consented unto to be the squares and judge8
of our actions, that our condition is different from those who caiTy their
houses on their backs ; that you have nothing to propound but what the
most prsejudicial judgement must conclude to be condueeable as to their
particular service to the publique ; that comportment in managing this
war, the exposal of your person to all danger, will convince the most
obstinate, and so to admonish us that whilst you rule by the law we
should live according unto the law, and that this you have done to
leave us without excuse, and to assure us of your best mediation to
replant us in his Majestie's favour.

My Lord, 1 know the aspect and the naturall expressions that will
flow from the instice of such a subject will be answerd with a Vive
Ormonde. Besides, this very act will cast us into a great jealousie with
the Parliament, and that being apprehended by all the principal ofilcersof
the army to be so undeservedly cast upon hem, will — [«c.]

I intreat your Lordship to make a favourable construction of this
medley. I protest to Q-od I meane well, and shall act my part in every
sense ; I only desier, if your Lordship's better judgment approve not of

^ Of FarliameDt, Dublin, in which Mervyn -wao member for Tyrone.

this, to lei me know either by parole or any other way what your
Lordship will advise me to, for except in these parts I may be serviceable
to his Majestie I will continue in this perplexitie of mind I labour in.

I in treat your Lordship forget not to write a courteous letter to Sir
Robert Stuart, for be tould me that were he assured your Lordship did
rightly understand him, he would venter his life to serve yon. Fray,
my Lord, answer my desiers in this.

Since I first wrote this letter, we understand Sir Patrick Wembs
[Wemjg] and diverse others are committed. If it should prove so,
which I beleve not, we had been in a good condition when he had
knowne all our minds. Sir Thomas Lucas in his place were the onely
man, or whomsoever your Lordship confides in most. I have dischardged
my heart and my conscience. Whatsoever your Lordship hears of my
actions or words, beleve the ends are to render visible my loyaltie to my
kinge, and to witnesse that none more faithfully honors your Lordship
then doth your Excellencies most obliged and devoted servant.

by Dean King into Scotland (which by him wee hope is long.since delivered
to you, or at least that some of those duplicates which wee were carefuU
to transmitt unto you are come to your hands) wee not only gave you
particuler answers to what was conteyned in your said dispatch suitable
to the propositions and representations you made, and to the then state
of affaires, but endeavoured to give you all possible proofe of the greate
satisfaction wee tooke in your takeing upon you the government of that
our kingdome, at a time when all the discouragements imaginable, at
home and from abroad might have deterred you from it, if your zeal and
affection to our service had not prevailed with you beyond my appre-
hension of those obvious dangers and distresses that you were in all
probability to expect, and which wee since finde you have mett with and
laboured under with eminent loyalty and constancy ;' wee are soe highly
affected with soe remarkable a testimony of faithf'uUness and courage in
you, and those that have adhearcd to you, that as wee take pleasure in
repeateing our resentments of it to you, and the thanks wee desire you
to receive and distribute in our name to those your adhearents, soe your
deliverance from the mine, whether by the losse of your lives aud
fortunes, or by a more miserable thraldotne prepared for you by the
rebells, increases very much the assiduity wherewith we endeavoured to
procure those assistances that may enable us to recover the rights of our
birtb and crowne and the libertyes of all our good subjects, wherem
bow faire our hopes stand for prevailing, and that seasonably, it is fittest

able assistances for the releefo of our good subjects in that our
kingdom.

4. " You are to let them know that we repose greate confidence in
their fidelity, and the continuance of their good affections to us, not-
withstanding the greate discouragements that our late misfoitunes and
the prevalence of the enemy in that kingdom may have given them, and
that we desire them to be assured of our constant and affectionate care
of that our kingdom, and our just sencs of their incessant indeavours for
and suflerings in our service, and that we remsine steadfast to those
graces and conditions derived to our good subjects by the articles of the
late peace, whereunto we shall, with greate cheerefulnes, make sucl.
further addition as their constancy in these tymes of tryal shall merit.

5. " You are to returne, as speedyly as possibly you can, with a perfect

tions to goveme your selfo cntyrely by the directions of the Lord of
of Clan Heard for the general!, and by the Lord of Muskry for those
partes where he comands.

9. " In case you shall be necessitate^ to land in Munster, where my

'^ 2. To signifie to the agents. Sir Nicholas Plunckett and Mr.
Browne, her Majestie's sense of the sad condition of his Majestie*s

hold on all occasions that- may redeeme them from the distresse they are
in, particulerly her readynes to give the Duke of I^orraine all the
encouragement in hor power to proceede in sending rclieCe thither for
the ends proposed by him ; that therefore shee desires them by virtue of
their commission to know what it is that the Duke expects from her in
that particuler, that if it be what may consist with his Majestie's honour,
the interest of his Crowne, and may be done without apparent danger to
his person, or interuption to his atfaires elswheare, shee will be wanting
in noething that may nroceede from her, tending to the preservation of
that people in their obedience to his Majestic and in prosperity to
themselves ; that shee is confident that the Duke of Lorraine realy
intends what he professes, and will therefore propose noething that may
derogate from his Majestie in honour or interest, as she conceives some
of the propositions made by the Duke's Minister apparantly doe, and
weare therefore with much resentment rejected by the Marquis of
Clanricard, who being a person interested in the cau.se of relligion, and
concearned in fortune and allianco in Ireland, shee would not willingly
appeal^ to come shorte oi him in care of or affection to the King's i ights
and reputaciou ; that iF, notwithstanding all their endeavours to
moderate those particulers, they find them insisted on, shee knowes noe
power deputed by his Majestie to make such an agreement, and ttiat in
such case of soe high and unusuall a proposicion shee knows noe good
expedient but to dispatch an expresse to the King to give him full

Lord of Clanricard and to expect his pleasure."

of your wonted favour, then, your Grace may be pleased to remember a
petition preferred against me at Counsel by C[olonel] Gorges, to which,
besides my answare, I offered severall matters against him whicfi I am
ready to prove ; all which he having most reason to believe might with
noe great difficulty be made out, he has made his application to the
Society, etc., in London, thereby endeavouring to possesse them that I
discourage the English interest in that plantation of thiere's and buoy up
a Scotch, wherein, notwithstanding, they cannot instance any one thing
don by me either like it or in order to it. Upon which (as I am
certainly informed) they have made their addresses to your Grace and
his Majesty, the e^ect of which has beene this, that the said Collonel
gives it out in Derry that his Majesty has superseded my patent, thereby
disheartning the rest of my witnesses, as he has bought off the others.

domes were soe much in agitation the last terme, I durst noe more
presume to trouble your Grace with the ten yeares' oppression I have
received from this citty than that (being in my right senses) I have
endeavoured to save my little fardle when the ship was sinking. But
now necessity urges and the sum of my case is this. I was about 12
yeares since (by your Grace's favor) made Recorder of Londonderry,
where I had not long beene ere one Alderman Norman had perswaded
the citty that the election was theire's and not his Majestie's. Articles
were preferred against, me to the Common Council ; Mr. Rynes,
Recorder of Kilkenny, chosen by them into my office, notwithstanding
all the crime they returred againsit me into the chicfe place of this
kingdome was, that they had elected one Ralph King (seven years before
that time dead) into my office, and that hee then executed the said office.
I was restored and, in hopes of peace, forbore to bring my action ; but
nothing can prevaile with dangerous ppirits ; he has putt them upon me
againe and declares he will not give mee over till he leave mee as poor as
a ratt. I dayly expect to be turned out by them, contrary to law,
without any scire facias brought to avoyd my letters patents. This, my
most gracious Lord, is my oppression. What I humbly beseech is, the

with your Grace this morning. The words of the Deane's (for as much
as relates to the publique) are theise : ' You have heere, enclosed, Samuel
Hobson's letter, signifying that passage concerning Osborne, that who-
soever killed the Archbishop^ of St. Andrews in Scotland did God good
service. Osborne spoke it to Forrester, my curate, and others in the
jayle of Derry ; Forrester told the Mayor of it, but nothing is due to
Osborne. Upon the receipt of this, I consulted with myselfe, what
was fitt for me to doe in it, and considering there was some difference
between the citty and me, I thought it prudent to lett it sleepe. But
Laving this last post received one other from the said Deane, dated the
17th instant, the news of which (other than what relates to myselfe'i are
these : When your opportunity serves to speak with the Primat, pray
tell him what the Presbyterians say heere, namely, that their brethren

1679, Sept. 30. Londonderry. — " Did your Grace move in a lower
spheare, you might (perhaps) have more repose, though noe lesse
veneration, so naturall it is for everything to apply to that whence it
either has or expects protection. The sense of this has once more
emboldened me to trouble your Grac« in beseeching you that, inasmuch
as there is now an opportunity of your Grace's informing yourself of
the difference between this citty and me, and the true cause of it, that
your Grace would be pleased to enquire it of the late judge of assize for
this citty and county, Mr. Justice Johnson, whose endeavours towards a
right understanding among us might not have proved uneffectuai if
Mr. Byves have not rebuzz'd his fellow-burgesses of this citty with his
former notions. The now matters against me were formerly exhibited

the charge of two of my daughters and one sonn, yet unpref erred,

and my grandchildren, and the payment of the portion of my

last daughter I marryed, will leave but a very inconsiderable estate to

my grandsonn, unfitt to supporte the quality like to descend on him. I

have upon former occations, by your Grace's assistance, sollicited his

Majestic for the quit-rents of my auncient estate, being deprived of his

Majesties gracious intentions, expressed in his declaration, for to see me

restored ; and, by your Grace's help and assistance, 1 had then a promise

from his Majestie to gett the said quit-trents after the end ot this farme

now soone expired. I consider that I cannot make my application in a

that I can never expect to prevaile therein for myselfe or grandsonn

1682, Sept. 16. — *^ Among all the errors of my life, none has soe
sensibly afflicted me as the oversight of lookeing for an Irish employment
without your Grace's approbation.

"My Lord, it is not the businesse of this paper to presseyour Grace
with fresh instances either in my late pretences or any new ones, but to
redeeme (as much as in me lyes) my late proceedings from any the least
suspicion of disrespect to yt ur Grace, and to assure your Grace thereof,
my first application was made to the Earle of Arran, who moved your
Grace therin before you left this kingdome, and, after your departure,
my Lord Deputy wrote to your Grace aud my Lord Hyde both, on my
behalfe, I thought I could not move your Grace by a more acceptable

104

Mabquib'of hand, and if it was mj crime that I did not make more frequent
Oemootdb. addi-esses, I can say for myselfe that I acted according to his
1683. Excellencies instructions, who commanded me to minde your Grace

of his letter, when the settlement of the farme^ should draw neere, and
according to my owne sense of the great respect due to your Grace
whome I thought it not fit to importune with the daily visits of a petty
soUicitour, and I hope, my Lord, if scanned with candour, this will
appeare an error on the right hand, and will relish rather of excesse of
respect than any want therof.

" If, upon either of these applications, I had understood how ungrate-
full it would be to your Grace, I hnd desisted upon the smallest
discountenance, and not have hazarded soe deepe a wound us your
Grace's displeasure for an imprudence a gentler stroke would then have
sufficiently corrected.

'^ My Lord, my education has been liberall and universall, and I was
always vaine enough to thinke I had abilities to serve my King and
country in a superior sphere than the managery of a glyster-pipe, a trade
of so much slavery that I never intended to follow otherwise than for
want of better employment. I did not believe myselfe inferiour or lesse
fit for businesse than other persons I saw formerly admitted to the same
trusts, nor could I suppose myselfe incapacitated by the study of
physicke, when I had already observed that the civill and common
Jaw were neither of them looked upon as a sufficient exclusion.

"I was al\«ays above seeking an employment meerly for maintenance,
jand though I have sometimes found the plea of a wasted fortune good
rhetoricke, yet I never designed tho repairing those breaches but by
services reall and meritorious ; I did not beg your Grace's good
character at this time to disparage it with slender performances, but
because I knew I could serve his Majestic with abilitie, and was
resolved to doe it with integrite, and it was not the least o^ my hopes
that, in the discharge of my dutie, I should become knowne to your
Grace and soe make out a right to that character which, if new
bestowed, would have been precarious.

'^ My Lord, I always thought, not having been formerly employed in
the like nature noe inconsiderable objection, being well assured his
Majesty has in the crowde of his subjects as able persons that are
swallowed up in obscuritic as those that wanton in the sunshine of his
favours, I could not thinke it an immodest request to the Duke of
Ormond to desire to be tryed where perfect strangers to his Grace are
accepted, nor ought I to believe myselfe the lesse acceptable for being
the only surviving branch of a family that always served bis Majestic
and Koyall father under your Gituse's intuition.

*^ But since your Grace's pleasure is otherwise, I shall devote all my
future endeavours to a calme expectation of your Grace's commands,
and if my zeale for my owne Tindication has transported me to any
indecency, 1 beg your Grace to interpret it a pardonable imprudence in
a person who breathes nothing but respect for your Grace's person and
illustrion? family, wishing from my soul that his Majestie may be well
served in the choice he has made, and your Grace satisfied.

** My Lord, thus much 1 thought it necessary to say to vindicate my
proceedings from such misinterpretations as (for aught I know), the
imprudence of my solicitour might expose it to, and if, in what I have
said, I prove soe fortunate as to succeed in assuring your Grace there

Wherefore doe you a i)eace deny
When he commands and grants meix^y,
Unless your wills you have.

Now you discover what you are.

And for what cause you rays'd this war.

Not for the King's renowne,
But to advance the Pope againe,
To be supreme and into Spayne

For to translate his crowne.

Duncannon'* it hath made them bold,
'J hey thinke now there is ne'er a hold

That can their force withstand.
Poore Inchiquin, with all his men,
They make no more to vanquish them

Than they were in their hand.

Thus doe they brag what they would doCi
They will have Cork and Youghall too.

When Munster they had got,
Then into Connaught would they gang
The Cootes and Ormsbyes thence to bang ;

At length turn out the Scot.

Thus these brave rebels hope to be
Among themselves a nation friie

In state and in religion.
They doe but purpose like to men.
But God will sure dispose of them

Uiito their own confusion.

Than these two miscreants, with their hell-hatched bande,

Have pour'd upon our heades by sea and lande.

Against our safetyes, all our coasts infested

^'ith rapines, massacres ; dyed the foaminge waters

"With sanguine tinctures of our blopde and slaughters ;

Pillag'd our lands from ships, our houses plunder'd,

O'er hills and valleyes martial claryons thunder'd,

Em peached our lawful traffick, commerce embarr'd ;

[2.] — Thomas Cobbes to Ormonde. /Seepage 110.

^' To his Excellence, my Lorde Lieutenant of Irelaode, etc., this poore
myte of a poeme be consecrated, dedicated and presented.

" May it please your Excellence, — Scarce a man now in this distressed
kingdome, nor heeretofore in Englande, Scotlande, Fraunce and other
kingdomes, states, and republiques, whither the iniquity of these times
hath chased me, exhibited himselfe more laborious and actire to serTO
his King and country, or to exhort his fel]owe subjects to loyalty and all
due obedience, since thoise more than civil commotions have distracted
us, than myselfe ; which my several manuscripts (some of which are
heere to be displayed), togither with those who entertained familiar dis-
course f and frequent conferences with me in those forraigne partes, and
nowe heere, and there dwelling in this province, can evidently con vinee.
And hardly hath any man been more crossed and thwarted in such
laudable enterprises than myselfe (heere living, as I can make it appeare,
in voluntary exile as in other places, rather than to deserte my King and
the equity of his cause against those that have most perniciously raljed
arms against him, bis crowne and dignity), who have effected little in

119

reguarde partly that some maDuscripts, issues all 06 mine own weake H^ounoi
braine, which I intended to commit to the presse, for the publiKe good Oimomm.
and general emolumcnte of all that understande English, the same
approved by learned men of and aboutt his city), have beene delayed to
bee licensed ; and, partly that certain money es, which T need much for the
accomplishing the same notwithstanding your order, are as yet detained
from me by an unworthy and an ungrateful gentleman of this lande,
called James Furlonge, who had beene turned a-rovinge in Fraunce with
his two servants, but for me releivinge him in his greatest extreamityes.
True it is, and notoriously knowne, this Furlonge, some yeares since^
killed a gentleman, his own kinsman, very fowlly, without any punish-
ment, or justice executed or exacted against him for soe hainous a crime ;
and nowe, arraunged in this county, not above five miles off, he
tirannizeth over the poore people there, drives his cattle and horses up
and downe where hee listeth, trespasses on many, as he hath done
uppon my patience these 6ight and twenty moiiethes, by violently keep-
inge from mee the money I lente him, soe long since ; and still will he
proceede in such contumacious courses, and will not be brought in to
aunswer in any courte of justice, unlesse your Excellencie vouchsafe by
stronge hande to fetch him in, and give satisfaction to me and many
others whom he hath basely injured, as shall be cleiirely demonstrated
against him, by writinges under his owne hande, by testimony es of
eminent witnesses, his neighbours' letters, and sundry such evidences*

** Notwithstandinge theise maine obstacles, which, from Whitsqntide
last that I arrived out of Fraunce hither, hath hindered me and doth
still from the presse, I hath ad ventured on this poeme to your Excellencie,
in this coarse manuscript, to declare the torrent of afiaires succintely
that have rushed through our three deplorable kingdome? and princedome
of Wales, since theise intestine broiles have made strange and dismal
irruptions through them all theise too many yeares ; and to animate true,
faithful and loyal hearts of this kingdome to obay his Majesty, your
Excellencie, and other magistrates by both of you most lawfully con-
stituted and appointed over it. Nowe to this I was induced because I
had the most sublime honour to crop the first fruitcs of my education
from Mr. Roger Conyors, at Pinchley by London, which your Excellencie
there studyinge some space of time, not a little illustrated. Be then
pleased to vouchsafe this rude peice some roome amongst your more
weighty affiiires, and I doubt not very speedily to gi*aspe some emergent
occasion, both in Latine and English, all sortes of verse and prose,
seriously and sportingely to produce treatises in a more high and elevate
straine to maintaine and support the justice and equity of our late and
now raigningo Soveraigne's cause against his most notoriously trayterou%
rebellious, and bloodthirstinge subjects, especially those that now infest
this land, and vindicate from time to time (as it may fall out expedient),
your Excellencie's proceedinges against them, and the managinge of your
greatest affaires, to gagge the mouths of such as affect and ambition
nothinge more than to calumniate or deprave all the actions of their
commaunders, superiours, magistrates and officers, or, at least, to blast and
obscure them, and to drive or egge on others to perpetrate the like mis-
demeanours, (1 should call them impietyes,) to precipitate such as well as
themselves into disobedience, contumacy, stnbbornesie and refractori-
nesse, to tbwarte not only regal, but legal authority : and whatsoever
shall on any just occasion be traced by the pen, for the maine parte,
shall as promptly be maintained in the same, if urgent^ serious, or
ponderous, by the life of your Excellencie'a humble and devoted
servant."

xgg,op [3.] — ^Thomas Flatman to Ormonde.

Okmoitdb. 1681, May 29. London. — " Tho' I am conscious to mjself how verj

1681. ^^^^^^ reason I have heretofore had to be fond of my owno pretentions to
poetry, yet, at this time, I can hardly forbeare being too much pleas*d
with myself, and reflecting with too much advantage on those lines ^
which have had the honour of your Grace's generous approbation.
Thus much, my Lord, in my owne favour; but I ought) withall, to
acknowledge that it was neither nature nor art in me, but the greatness
of the subject that enforc'd that poem ; and I am persuaded that the ju6>t
sense of his being the glory and the delight of the English nation would
have inspired the meanest capacity with more sublime thoughts, had not
the sorrowful resentments of so universal a loas depriv'd the better part
of mankind of ihc use of thinking. The illustrious Earl of Ossory's
fame and memory will live in nobler monuments than those of verse, and
the histories of more than these three little kingdomes must be ungrate-
fully imperfect if they pass over in silence the great actions he has
done, and how much the latest posterity will be indebted to him for his
kindness to their Huncestors. For my owne pai-t, I am bound to return
your Grace my humblest thanks for your unexpected princely favour,
which I shall leave for ever to be the chiefest honor of my family, to
3hew in after ages that one of the name was so considerably fortunate in
your Grace's favour."

1662, August 2. — ^A miaate of letters written to the officers in chief m^Sjib'op
commnnding the several troops and companies in his majesty's Osmoitdb.
standing armj in Ireland : i'^

'^ Having, upon our arrivall in this kingdom, in the first place
entered upon the consideration of the present state and condition of his
majesty's army, and finding the numbers of the several troops and foot
companies mustered upon tne 5th day of March last to exceed the estab-
lishment transmitted by his majesty out of England for the constant
payment of his and of his standing army in this his kingdom, wee have
thought fit that the said troops of horse and foot companies bee imme-
diately reduced to the number of threescore and seven private horsemen,
thrive corporals and two trumpets, besides the four commissioned officers
in each troop, and fourescore and six private soldiers, one drum, two
Serjeants, and three corporalls, besides the three commissioned officers
in each foot company, according to the said establishment. And there-
fore we have thought fit, hereby to require you forthwith to return to
the commissary of the musters the nnmes of all such as last came into
your troop (except the servants of the officers) as do exceed the num-
ber of thi*eescore and seven, in which number the servants of the
respective officers, viz., two to each captain and one to each commissioned
officer are to bee included, that such as are supernumeraries to the
king's establishment may be disbanded and a present course taken for
the stating and satisfaction of their arrears from the 21st of October,
1661 till the 27th of July last, the day of our arrival in this kingdom.
And when the said soldiers are satisfy ed for their arrears, and disbanded
as aforesaid, you are to take particular care that their arms be delivered
into the next public store, and an account S3nt of them to the master of
the ordnance with an acknowledgement from the clerk of any such store
of the receipt of those arms, and if by reason of the present necessity
such as have merited in his majesty's service shall happen to be dis-
banded, you are to assure such that core shall be taken for putting them
into employment upon the next vacancies whether by death or other-
wise, which in effect will be of great advantage to them since they are
not only to receive satisfaction for their arrears but assured of being
thus received into his majesty's service as occasion shall bee offi^red.
And in regard we are informed that the soldiers have been constrained
for want of their pay to run in debt in their several quarters, you are to
cause an accompt t(» bee immediately transmitted to ur of all those debts
by them respectively incurred for their subsistence in their quarters ;
with the names of the persons and the places of their dwellings respec-
tively to whom such debts are due, that a course may be taken for the
payment of such debts to the country out of their arreares, it being but
just and reasonable that the country haveing out of their good affection
to his majesty's service afforded them subsistence in their necessities
should not be endangered thereby but receive all due encouragement
and satisfaction for the same out of their said arrears and as wee cannot
but take notice with what patience and loyalty the whole army hath of
late endured the want of their pay, and the many hardships incident
thereunto^ soe we thinke fit upon this occasion to return our very hearty
thanks unto both officers and soldiers for the same, assuring them as
hereby we doe that we shall hereafter bee very careful of their constant
payment fi'om the said 27th day of July, according to his majesty's said
establishment. And in further testimony of our care of them we are
now making provision for the clothing of the soldiera out of their
arrears that so their growing entertainments may come clearly into thetr
hands.

'' In our letter of the second day of this month we gave you to under-
stand, that his majesty had transmitted out of England the establish-
ment by which his army in this kingdom is to be paid^ and that all
those which were above the said establishment were to bee reduced,
and that care should bee taken for the satisfaction of their arrears and
payment of their debts in their respective quarters incurred from the
II th February 1660 to the 27th of July last, upon your returning up
the names of the persons which were to be disbanded as supernumer-
aries to his majesty's establishment and the debts they owed in their
respective quarters for their maintenance* And as therein we evidenced
our care for the payment of such supernumeraries, so we thinke fit by
these our letters to acquaint you that we have taken also care for satis-
faction of such arreares as have been incurred by yourself and your
company since the 21st of October 1661 to the 27th of July last. And
that you may the better understand what way we have put their satis-
faction into, wee thought good to let you know that wee have set apart
for the payment of the arrears due to this his majesty's army from the
21st of October 1661 to the 27th of July aforesaid all that his majesty's
revenue which arises out of the old Crown rents and the new rents pay*
able by adventurers, soldiers and transplanted persons, which, according
to the best estimate can be made of the same amounts to sixty thousand
pounds yearly, which, by gales conmiencing at Michaelmas next, shall be
wholly set apart for satisfaction of the said arrears, and that branch of
his majesty's revenue being the most considerable and certain, we there-
fore set it apart for payment of the said arrears, which in course half-
yearly shall be satisfyed, of which we require you to acquaint all those
under your command concerned therein. And as we omil t nothing in our
power which may testify our care of this his majesty's army so we
doubt not but those of it, will by their faithfulness, obedience and
diligence in their severall stations invite us to a further perseverance
therein.

shall have the arreares due unto them since the 11th of February, 1660,
satisfied with the standing army, which persons so discharged are to be
allowed on the musters until the 28th of this instant September, if they
have so long done duty, and that in the rooms of such so discharged the
officers commanding in chief each troop and company do enlist such
persons as are Protestants and well affected to his majesty's service and
as near as may bee allowed on the muster commencing the said 28th of
September, instant. And that after the muster taken the 28th of
September aforesaid, the troopes and companyes being completed to the

is company disaffected as aforesaid (their names being expiessed in
sticb certificate) forthwith to strike them out of the muster rolls, and to

Jan. 29. — To the master master general : ^^ Whereas we conceiye it 1668^3*
fit for the advantage of his majesty's service, that there bee an exact
account taken of all serviceable, unserviceable and want of arms in each
troop and company of his majesty's army in this kingdom, we doe
hereby will and require you to take special care thereof, and to give it
strictly in charge to your deputy commissaries that they take an account
of the same at the next muster, and to make returne unto us, to the end
such further course may bee taken therein for the supply thereof, as we
shall think fit. And whereas wee did, by our order of the 24th of
September last, think fit that after the muster taken on the 28th of
September afoi^said, no officer be permitted to change or discharge any
soldier, other than their servants aUowed of, out of any troop or company
without being convicted of some crime at a court marshall, or by special
order from us, yet we, takeing into our consideratiou the short time of
notice that the officers of troops had of our said order and that they
might have just cause to discharge some more of the stAdiers of the said
troops and companies than what they did pursuant to our said order, we
do wiU and require you, that if any officers have discharged any of their
soldiers since the muster taken the 28th of September last, you are to
allow thereof notwithstanding our former order, who are to have their
arrears satisfied with the standing army, so that such persons as be pre-
sented in their roor.is be not allowed before the day the said troop and
company is mustered, they being Protestants and well affected to- his
majesty's service.

'' And you are to take special care that no commissioned <^06r that is
absent from his comiiiand be aUowed on the musters, unless they beof
•the privy oouneell or att^iding the Parliament or produce our licence of
absence, nor to allow any other commissioned officer than such who can
produce their commissions from us, and the same entered in your office,
to the end we may r:'ceive an account from you, as from time to time
shall be required.

'^ And whereas we are informed, that divers officers who are present at
the musters, do immediately after the musters taken depart from their
respective garrisons without our licence, contrary to the articles of war,
and to the neglect of his majesty's service, and that many soldiers who
attend their musters are presently after licenced by their officers to be
absent from their garrisons, contrary to the said articles of war, to the
end that such offences may be the more certainly made known unto us,
we will and require yon to give it in charge to your deputy commissaries
by all wayes and meanes to inform themselves of such officers and soldiers
as offend herein, and to returne the names of them with their next
muster rolls, that such punishment may be inflicted on them, as by said
articles of war is set down, or as we shall think fit."

dangerous passage thither, I do also humbly ofTer, that, if it shall Feem

June I. — To [Thomas Butler J earl of Ossory, Kilkenny : ** We
having taken into our consideration the present state and condition of
his majesty's revenue in this kingdom, and finding tlie same will not
discharge the charge of the marshal and civil lists established for this
kingdom, by means whereof we cannot according to our willingness and
desire constantly pay his majesty's army according to the number of
soldiers now established, we have therefore thought fit to reduce the
number of each troop to forty-five (irivate soldiers, requiring you hereby
that the same be accordingly done, in the doing whereof you are to take
care to reduce such of your troop who you conceive are disaffected to
hia majesty's present government, and sucli who are best able to live of
themselves, and live remote from their garrisons, ijeglectin^j; their duties,
appeareing only on mnster days to the great neglect of his majesty's
service. And we do asbure you that by the blessing of God we shall
take such care that the army for the future be constantly paid every
three monthi*, and for the better encouragement of such who are now to
be reduced, we have signed warrants for three monthp* pay ending the
27th of April last, and that such of them who aie allowed upon the
muster taken the 28th of April shall likewise receive that month's pay,
that so they may receive full satisfaction for the time they served his
majesty ; to whicii end we require you to send a list of the. names of
those reduced to the muster master general, and that such of them who
have the ten months' arrears due unto them from the 2i8t of October,
1661, to the 27th of July, 1662, shall be stated and satisfied with the
standing army.

And whereas we conceive that the soldiers so to be reduced
may bee indebted unto the inhabitants of the several garrisons where
they did or now do quarter since the 11th of February, 1660, and
being desirous that the debts contracted by them should be SAtisfyed
to those who did entrust them for necessaiy provisions for themselves
and horses, c<»nceiving it just and reasonable, that they, having out of
their good affection to his majesty's service, afforded them subsistence
in their necessities, should not be endamaged thereby, but receive all due
encouragement and satisfaction for the same out of their arrears for the
ten months aioremcniiontd, to which end we require that tickets bee
given to the several inhabitants, and that such who have none of that
arrear due unto them, we think it fit that you take cure that reasonable
satisfaction be made out of the four months' pay now to bo received to
the panics to whom they are indebted ; you are to take care that the
arms of the several soldiers now to bee reduced be safely deli vexed to the
store next adjaci^nt and to give notice thereof to the master of the
ordnance."

that she cannot go to sea till repaired, which, as her master and a ship
carpenter ioformed me, will cost fifteen pounds, which, she being tender
work and very old, will preserve her but a year or two, when for
twenty five pounds a new one may be built, which, with little charge,
will last many yesrs. The master of that boat was silo we J by tiie
late usurped govemment a corporal's pay, and out of a full company
that lay constantly in garrison, five men were ordered to attend that
service, which, out of twenty eight men, being the present garrison,
cannot be admitted safely, since they are oft kept out by contrary winds
six or eight weeks at a time, unless your grace will be pleased to allow
us so many men to that purpose or increase the garrison.

'' In the fort of Bofiin there are three and twenty pieces of ordnance,
half the which want carriages, whereof twelve are iron minionv, five iron
falcons, four iron sakers, one iron twelve-pounder, and one demi-
culverin, whereof the four last are only useful as to the defence of the
harbour. Thei'efore [I] do with all humbleness ofier it to your race,
having discoursed with your gunner there, a man of known judgment,
that two long brass sakers, or two of the longest sort of demi-culverins
are absolutely necessary for the justification of that important harbour,
the fort commanding it having cost fifteen hundred pounds [in] the
buildinc, and do humbly offer it, if your grace thinke fit^ that from the
town of Gal way, these garrisons may be supplied and the said town will
be left sufficiently stored with artillary.

*^ There is also an absolute necessity of a small vessel of twenty or
thirty tons, to fetch provisions where it may be cheapest had, which is
sometimes in the year no nearer then Gtilway, Sligo or Derry, the
nearest of which places are twenty leagues from Boffin, as also the
reasonableness of a correspondency between both islands and Ghdway, if
occasion require, which, upon so violent a coast, can be but rarely had
without a very good sea boat, which was the reason the frigate that
now lies in Boffin was built, which, if repaired, would very well supply
that service, she being near five and twenty tons, and is said to have
been a good sailer. The boat hath lain aground two years, and, as I
am informed from the gunner at Boffin, who is also a very good ship
carpenter and the man that built her, fourscore and ten pounds will
repair her and not under, she wanting sails, anchors and cables, and all
manner of riggings, besides her hull being much out of order by being
so long aground, which charge, as captain Barkely and other seamen
tell me, will be easier to your grace than the very sending another
vessell from this port to so remote a one.

*^ I shall only presume to mention it to your grace, that without such
boats your gamsons can scarce subsist in these it*]ands, so without some
small encouragement to their masters, and some more men allowed to
your garrisons, we shall not be able with the few we have to put them
to sea when repaired, and hope your grace will so order it, there having
never been, till alderman Deey's time, less than one full compauy in each
islandL

^< We have in both garrisons but eight barrels of powder and much
of that decayed, we also want a proportion of sreat shot suitable to the
guns we desired from your grace, as also trucks, ladles, rammer heads
and spunges, proportionable to the ladles, a hundred weight of sheet lead
for aprons, six crows of iron, one huudi-edweighi of two-inch rope for
fackles to haul the guns, one dozen of priming irons and two hundred
shot suitable to the guns we have, which, if your grace sothink fit,
may bee supplied from Limerick or Galway, and for one hundred and
fifty pounds both islands may be so provided with boats, and the forts so

297

repaired], that your grace need not be at anj further charge for some
years with them, all which is humbly submitted to your grace's con-
sideration by your grace's most faithfuU humblo and obedient servant,
Nicholas Baylt."

** May it please your grace. — We have considered the whole proposal
of cfiptaine Nicholas Bayly for supplying his majesty's garrisons in the
isles of Arran and Boffin with the several necessaries therein men-
tiened, and we are humbly of opinion that the keeping and securing of
these garrisons (especially Bo£Bj:i) is of much importance to bis majestie's
service, and the safety of that part of this kingdom, and that the sum
desired for doing the several particulars therein expressed is very
reasonable and cannot be well performed for less, therefore we humbly
offer to your grace that order may bee given for rem )ving from the
strand near Gralway to Boffin two such guns as are desired for the
security of that harbour, and that the sum of one hundred and fifty
pounds may be paid unto captain Bayly for the building of anew boat ot
fourteen tons for the use of the garrison in Arran, the repair and com-
plete fitting of the vessel or frigott now at Boffin, the mending of the
roofs and other necessary i*epairs in both the forts, and the providing
carriages for the guns and furnishing all the other necessaries mentioned
in the said proposals, all of which the said captain Bayly is to undertake
the perrormance of this next spring.

<< We also humbly acquaint your grace that wee find that lieutenant
John Sandes, lieutenant to captain Robert Deey's company, lately
garrisoned in the said islands, had your grace's warrant, dated the 29th
of August 1662, to receive sixty four pounds out of the treasury, 30/.
whereof was for building a new and repairing an old boat, and the
remainder for repairing the houses in and adjoining to the forts in the
said islands, but whether the same hath been applyed to those uses, we
do not find ; all which is Itumbly submitted to your grace's considera-
tion. — DuNGANNON, R. CooKE, Hknky Tichbornb, Fra^tcis Haviltok,

Feb. 26. — '^Upon consideration of the foregoing report of the com-
mittee of the council for the affairs of the army, made in pursuance of a
verbal order from us upon the within proposals of captain Nicholas
Bayly, concerning his majesty's forts and garrisons in the isles of
Arran and Boffin, we hereby pray and require our very good lord,

account. And for the said vice treasurer's so doeing, this, together with

XII. — 2. Ormonde's Observations^ on the preceding paper.

** Sir Oliver St. George was liuetenant to the earl of Monntrathe's
troope, and allyd to him, and contributed as much as any to dispose him
to appeare for the king's restoration, and my lord Granard affirmes hee
had thereupon commission to assure him of his majestie's favour, and
particularly that hee should bee kept in his command.

*^ Sir George St. George, brother to sir Oliver, was at the same time
comet to the same troope, and assisted his brother ; hee is a very good
officer.

'< William Badborne served the late king in all the warr of England
and deserves a better command than hee has.

'' Joseph Jackman was related, as I am tould, to the lord Berkeley.^

'^ Mr. Bobert FitzGerald^ was very yong and yet active in the desigue
of restoreing the king.

^ Hologiaph of Ormonde.

^ John lo^ Berkeley of Stratton, lord lieutenant of Ireland, 1670-71.
3 Brother of Wentworth FitzGerald, feventeenth earl of Kildare, and fiither of
Bobert die eighteenth earl.

399

''Fountaine is above eighty yeares of age,— esteemed a good and
charitable man.

** Lewis Jones was son to the late bishop of Meath^ of that name.

^ Prothro being liuetenant to the lord Shannon, it is presumed if hee
were not well affected his lordship would not suffer him to bee his officer.
