VPon our returne I have sent you a relation of what hapned on the march upon the 10. of August there went about 2000. Foot with some Horse towards Trim , upon Tuesday following we marcht after them , the second day we lay 4. miles short of Trim , where we heard the Van of our Army , with some Forces out of the Garrison in Trim , had taken in the Castle Knock , lying 4. miles to the left hand , wee lost 30. men , for they stood it out to the last man . Upon Friday all the Army met two miles beyond Trim , wee had 51. Colours flying and about 1000. Horse , wee marcht to the Castle of Baramore , which is the nighest way 42. miles from Dublin , and never saw an Enemy , onely the Enemy made us returne and goe more upon the left hand by burning a Bridge , so that we could not passe that way , there was another Bridge the Wayne marcht , and a pretty Towne , but forsaken and burnt by us , as we did all other Townes and Castles all the way we went , the Enemy has left the Townes , but their Goods they have hid in the Bogges , or else conveyed them into the County of Weekley ; the Rebels had made a very strong breast Worke against the Bridge , and were 500 men to man it , but in the morning forsooke it : The Castle of Baramore where wee rested one day before our returne is a place naturally fortified with a great Bogge , only one way to come to it , where they had made strong Workes , yet durst not make them good ; from thence my Lord Jones and Sir Michael Earnely their two Regiments went alone , which is ten miles further , and are to keepe Garrison in Canaught and thereabouts . The next day wee marcht straight for Dublin with the remainder of our Army , finding no opposition , onely one day we past by one of the Enemies Castles , which wee could not stay to take in , by reason we wanted pieces of Battery and bread for our men if wee should stay ; when the Reare of our Army was past which wee had upon our March that day ▪ some quantitie of the Enemies Horse very well mand came rushing out of a Wood , which caused us when wee were over the Bogge to fall about and make a sudden stand , expecting that they would have charged us , but they onely staid for straglers , the next day we was to passe a morasle , where there was but a narrow Causey , which way the Enemy thought we would have marcht from Dublin , and had therefore made a strong breast work , and to hinders us had made a double ditch , halfe pike deepe , and cast all the loose earth in the midst , which did hinder us in respect we wanted timber , and the ground was so base , as it was long ere the Carriages durst venture over ; that night we marcht to Kilcock a very pretty Towne 12. miles from Dublin , the onely Towne wee left unburnt , it was lately built by the English ; all the way of our march what persons soever , as men , women , or children that our Souldiers met , they gave no quarter they were so enraged that the Enemy would not fight . I never saw finer Countries in all my life then we were thorow , store of Corn growing , and that spetiall in all parts , and after the two first dayes march wee wanted not for good beefe , and excellent Cheese , but not a drop of drinke for 3. or 4. dayes together , and then but a little by chance for the Officer . I never in my life time in England knew greater and colder raines in winter then we had every day but one with us , I protest I doe verily think we did not come 3. nights all the march to our quarter but our men were wet to the skin , and then the good earth was our lodging , and we came usually so late as the men had scarce time to help themselves , and to get rest , for wee was to march by 4 or 5. in the morning ; it had bred much sicknesse amongst our fresh Souldiers , wherein I have a part , being brought to extreame weaknesse with the Countrey disease , for which I this day take Physicke . I had much adoe to finish my Letter , I will conclude with the tender of my duty to your selfe and my Mother , with my prayers for your happy preservation . My humble service to my Lady Alesbury with the rest of that worthy family , my Cousin Lowing and his wife , my love to my brother with the rest of my Friends , so I rest , Your obedient Sonne , THO. JOHNSON . Dublin 19. Augu. 1642. My service to my Cousin Tucker , and I pray let him see this Letter , that hee may know the just reason I doe write to him by this Post , but he may by this understand all the Newes , I know onely thus much more , we have no pay , nor have little hopes , by reason of the manifold troubles with you . Ordered that this be printed and published , H. Elsyng , Cler. Parl. D. C. FINIS .
