For the Honourable William Lenthall Esquire, Speaker of the Honourable House of Commons.  
SIR,  
I Hope you Received my Letters concerning the Battle; since that time the Army hath lain before Bridgewater, giving them Alarms day and night: There is in the Town above 30. pieces of Ordnance, whereof one is a Demy-Canon, another carries 32. pound bullet, strongly Fortified, deep Trenches; yet our Soldiers have their Bobbins in readiness, and were in hopes last night to have Stormed; a few days will starve them; good prize within. The Governor and his Lady, Sir Hugh Windham, his Son, Sir john Digby, Sir Fr. Courtney, Tho. eliot sore wounded, etc. A Convoy is gone for the Treasure at Lyme, it will much comfort the Soldier who deserves it well the Country suffers by the want of it: Goring is fled to Barstable, the Clubmen being more terrible to him then our Army, giving him Alarms, and disarming his men in Devonshire, as the Clubmen of Somersetshire did: Hopton is fled to Exeter, for France if he can; Sir Io: Staangewayes, and Sir Francis Dorrington fled into Wales; they see their condition desperate, and I hope shall do it every day more and more.  
july 15. 1645. I am Sir your Servant.  
Our Ships in the River at Bristol, mightily terrifies the Enemy.  
I have sent you a List of the Officers taken; you will see 30 Regiments in a manner broken, all Goring best Horse were spoiled at this bout.

Col: Okey with his Dragoons, laying Siege to Borrough Garrison, had it yesterday Surrendered unto him on bare Quarter, Capt. Smith and 120. more being in it, 80. Muskets, and 40. T●●e locks. The Army continues Siege before Bridgewater▪ and 〈◊〉 by Storming or Starving, will undoubtedly shortly carry it; for they are not provided for a Siege, wanting Victuals. Goring is fled to Barstable in great confusion, not 140. foot with him; the Club men much annoy him, he hath not 1400. Horse for Service left, the rest women and boys.  
One Coll. and a French Gentleman of quality, continue in a Commanders hands still, whose Names are not yet returned to the Provost Martial.  
Sir Francis Courtney lies dangerously wounded at Bridgewater, and other Officers of quality: Sir John Digby is there also wounded.  
Common Soldiers taken 1200. whereof 500 have taken the Covenant and taken up Arms, being first approved by Mr. Ash, and Mr. Moor, Members of the Parliament.  
The enclosures being many, abundance of the Foot escaped and got to the clubmen, who disarmed them, and gave them leave to go to their homes; they disarmed 300. at one time, Horse and Foot.  
Our men were so eager on the pursuit, that they left the prisoners to themselves to march back to the Army, who escaping, made the number fall short of that was assured they were of.  
There is in Bridgewater about 30. piece of Ordnance, 1000 Soldiers Welch and Townsmen, moated about, water deep, having the benefit of the Tide.
