THE PROTESTANTS victory, And the papists of Irelands Overthtow.  
COurteous Reader, here in this small treatise I ●hall present unto thee such joyful news, ●o such an unequal battle, which is as followe●h.  
Vpon the ●8 of December, colonel neal chief general for the Rebels, having renewed his forces two dayes before, marched from the North west parts to the County of Connoham, and there caused the drums ro beat up throughout his whole Army, to call his officers and souldiers together, who when they were gathered together, and set Warlike manner, he then spake to them to this effect.  
The noble earl of Wonmorth caused a value of shot to be made against them, which the rebels answered again most furiously; then the two Lords marched about with their Army, striving for the wind which at last they obtained, and for the space of two days and one night they fought most furiously one against th'other, not ceasing all this while to take breath, the conquering sword hanging over their heads, not knowing to which side the victory would fall too, till that noble and valiant soldier Captain comb, came with his f rces which were 1000. foot and 200. ho se, who played against them with such courage, that he crused them to retire back then t●e Lord Baltamore caused his Ordnances to be planted against them, who killed them so fast. with Chain-shot, that in the space of three hours were sl●ine on the rebels 2000. and three great Commanders taken p●isoners, in all were slain of the rebels 6000, of the protestants fourteen hundred.  
The earl of Wormoth hath also took again the Castle which belonged to captain Hall, which the rebels took Decemb. 1. 1641.  
Then the protestant Army marched back to the province of Manster, where they expect another battle daily.  
They have also won a great part of the County of Connoham, which the Rebels took at the beginning of their rebellion, then the protestant party marched towards the county of cork, and took the great Castle called Irelands Succour ' and killed of the rebels 200, and took great store of Ammunition from them, that came from Sptine two dayes before, and now at this present, they hath entrouched themselves about it, expecting every day the coming of the rebels to assault them.
