That of Lanesborough, by colonel Brewer. In a Letter form Dublin January the 6th. and what was mentioned in the last Intelligence Printed there. licenced January 13th. 1691. And Entred according to Order. A Few days since, Four Troops of Horse, and Three of Dragoons of the Irish, appeared on the borders of the Province of Ulster, with a Resolution to fall in upon some of our little Frontier-Garrisons: But Colonel Wolsely, having timely notice of their Designs, by the means of some Deserters, Ordered a considerable Detachment of Inniskilling Horse, after them, who coming up with them, after a short Dispute, gave their whole Party a Total Defeat; killing, and taking Prisoners, about One Hundred and Twenty of the Enemy. From the iceland of Allen of the 4th. in the Afternoon, we have an Account that colonel folks, and the Party under his Command, on Saturday last marched to Togher Greggs, on the entrance of the Bog of Allen, and came there about a Eleven a Clock at Night. The Rapparees being allarmed at the approach of our Men, came within musket Shot of us, and allarmed us most part of the Night. On Sunday morning by break of day, colonel folks advanced to the Togher, which the Rebels seemed as if they would defend, but finding our Men resolved to have the Pass, they quitted it, and gave them only the trouble of filling up the Trenches they had made across the Togher, which were twelve in number, which being done, we marched our Horse over, and so went to the iceland of Allen, where he met colonel Piper, whose Passage was no less easy. The Rebels betook themselves to the Woods, which are so great that it will give us some trouble to hunt them out of their Fastnesses. It's believed the Enemy have in these Woods about 1000 Foot, besides some Horse, and are much encouraged by the Protected Irish therea-abouts, who upon all occasion are ready to join with them. On Wedensday the 6th of Januray part of our Army under the Command of colonel Brewer of with some Field pieces, marched from our Frontiers towards Lanesboroug: The Enemy to the number of about 3000 had posted themselves on the Passes on the bog, at some distance from the Town, where they had raised above twenty several Trenches across the Togher on the bog, which they from one to another disputed, but at last, with the loss of about three hundred of their men, were beaten back to the Town; the Fort on this end of the Bridge, they in some measure demolished, and quitting that and the Town in great Confusion retired beyond the Shannon. colonel Brewer possessed himself of the Town and Fort, and placed a Garrison of about three hundred men there, who it's believd will soon repair the Bridge, so as to be able to march into Connought. We have likewise an Account from the Frontiers of the North, That Lieutenant General Douglas has lately gained a Considerable Fort from the Enemy; which opens a Material Road between the Provinces of Connaught and Ulster. Lieutenant General Ginkle is now by the Banks of the Shannon, with a great Body of our Army. He has with him a great Number of Dutch- built Boats in the River; and we are hourly in Expectation of his hearing of his putting in Execution some considerable Enterprise. Fifteen Ships in Their Majesties Service, with a Convoy are ordered to Sail immediately hence to cork, to receive on board the Prisoners of War that are in Custody in that place and thereabout. The Lords Justices having received Information, That several Irish Spies, of Considerable Note, were lurking about this City, they Ordered Diligent search to be made after them, and on Wednesday last, Three of them were apprehended, and secured in the Castle, in order to receive Condign Punishment. The Sunday after the Arrival of Sir Charles Porter, both of the Lords Justices went to the Castle; from whence they brought the Sword of State, &c. And went in great Spendour to S. Warbrough's-Church. advertisement. VIllare Hibernicum, Being an Exact Account of all the Provinces, Counties, Cities, archbishoprics, bishoprics, Town. Castles, Fortifications, Garrisons.
