AN EXACT RELATION Of a Battle fought by the Lord Moor, against the Rebels in Ireland; with the number that were slain on both sides.  
THE Lord Moor hearing of the Rebellion of the Papists; sent for all his Tenants, and asked them, if they would assist him in suppressing of the Rebels; their answer was, they would be ready at all times, to venture their lives, for their King, him, and their Country: His Lordship's answer was, he was very thankful to them for their faithfulness to his Majesty, and also for their faithfulness to him, and to their Country; and if they would assist him, he would by the 30. of October provide Arms for them; and he would go find out some of the Rebels, who did much spoil all the Country their abouts; their answer was, with all their hearts they would assist him, to the uttermost of their lives, and fortunes promising all to attend him on the 29. of October.  
In the mean time, the Conspirators hearing of my Lord Moor's design upon them, they made themselves two thousand strong; intending to take my Lord Moor in his house, and to carry him away prisoner; and to seize upon all his Munition, and to take his hundred horse, that he had then in readiness: he having notice of their coming, sent post f●r all his friends, and Tenants; for that he was before their coming furnished with a thousand men, but had not g●tten in Arms for half of them: The Rebels drew near his house, to the number of two thousand, with Drums, and Colours displayed before them. My Lord Moor seeing them so n●er, thought it not wisdom to let the Rebels besiege him in his house; therefore he marched out to meet with them, and having met with them in a narrow passage, which went to hi● house, a Rock being on one side, and a River on the other side; he placed his horse in the Front; where began a very smart fight between them; but the Rebels still pressed to gain the passage to his house; which they with much ado gained: so that by that m●ans, the Lord Moor's Horse could sta●d him in no stead; neither was he able to charge them any more with his Foot; so that he was forced to march to a City three miles of.  
The number of the Rebels slain in this fight, was three hundred; the number of the otherside slain, was forty; th●n the Rebels entered the Lord Moor's house, and took all that they found in it, and killed up all his Cattles; and pillaged his Tenant's houses, and destroyed all th●ir Cattles round about.  
The chief Commander of the Rebels is, Sir Patrick Oneal, the high Sheriff of a County in Ireland, who, with the other Rebels, published many declarations in writing to this effect; Th●t they were not a conquered Na●ion, nor would not live under th● Laws, that have now of late been enacted; and they would have a free use of th●i● Religion without interruption; which they had now cause to fear, would be much straitened, if not utterly taken away: therefore it is high time to stir, since it is of so great a consequence; therefore all that wish well to the Catholic Faith, let them now betake themselves to their Atms, and come now and assist us who are now in the field, to defend the Religion with our swords, which hath been established in this Kingdom, by our worthy Ancestors: and hereby we shall put honour upon our Religion, and make our names famous through the Christian world; and if any of the Catholic Religion shall refuse to assist us in this our just def●nce, let them know, they will be kept under like slaves, and draw upon them a curse from all the Catholics in the world, and the curse of us Priests, a●d Friars, and Soldiers.  
Given at the Council, held the 31. of October, in the County of Monno.
