More True, and Exceeding Joyful News from JRELAND.  
SIR,  
SInce my last Letter, I have sent you these joyful Occurrences, being all the proceed, which passed from April the 12. 1642. To this present.  
Upon the 12 day of April, the Lord Precedent of Munster fought: a great Battle with the Rebels in the North parts of Jreland, hazarding his own persons very dangerously, by reason of his couragions and Heroic Spirit bringing up his men so valiantly, he himself being fore-most in the Rear, but after 2. or. 3. value of Shot, withdrew himself into the midst of his Army.  
It is credibly reported, that he with 700. men, hath fought against 3000 of the Rebels, the fight lasting for the space of five hours, and hath slain 1300 of them, and took fourscore prisoners, some being Commanders of great Note, and hath likewise won the strong Castle of Carnow, leaving a strong Garrison in the same.  
After this, he marched to his own Quarters again, and doth intent very suddenly, to set forth, to scour those parts.  
But upon the 13. day of April was a joyful day with us, when the Earl of Ormond with 500 Foot and 100 horse, gave Battle against two thousand Rebels, near to the City of Youghall, who had entrenched themselves very strongly; and after a bloody Battle, burned them out of their Quarters, they retreating bacl with the loss of 800 men, leaving great store of good Pillage behind them, of our side were slain not above 50. at the most, all Common Soldiers.  
On the 14. day of April, Sr. Richarh Greenvill, Sr. Charles Coote, and Captain Marro, set forth with 5000. men from our City, and marched towards the Neweriis, where they had Battle given them immediately by 12000 Rebels, but they were resisted most valiantly by them again, so that a long and tedious Battle did ensue, Captain Marro bringing up the Rear, gave Fire so thick upon them, that in the first encounter were slain of the Rebels 300. our men seeing them fall so thick before them were mightily encouraged, so that they most pvissantly sent the dreadful Bullets amongst them, so that by that means the Rebels retreated bacl, for the space of half a Mile, our men pursuing them very close, slew 200 of them in their retreat whereupon the Rebels instantly presented themselves in a fair Battalia Order, so that there did begin another hot Skirmish for the space of four hours, where there were slain of the Rebels 500 more, of our side threescore, the Battle then ending, the Rebels retreated bacl, leaving great store of Pillage behind them  
Then Captain Marro, with the consent of Sir Richard Greenvill, and Sr. Charles Coote, drew out 1000 men from the main Body, taking with him four pieces of Ordnance, and upon the 14. of this present Month, marched towards Wallen Castle, four Miles distant from the Army, where he gave them a sudden assault, and beat down a great wall of the Castle, which put the Rebels into a great perplexity, nevertheless they with the best Power and Strength they had, gave Battle to him, and after the space of four hours' fight, they sounded a Parley, Captain Marro showing himself in the Front, they desiring of him some time to prepare themselves for Battle, but he immediately caused the Drums to beat up, and mounted his Ordnance against them, so that after some time to prepare themselves for Battle, but immediately caused the Drums to beat up, and mounted his Ordnance against them, that after some time he attained the Castle, putting all to the Sword that was therein.  
Our Army is entered in the Neweries, 15. Miles, and doth intent (God willing) to give them another Battle very suddenly.  
From Dublin April the 14.   

Very good News from Jreland.  
Master John Hawkredge,  
I Have written by the the two last Posts, and having good News, it shall troth to impart it unto you.  
The last Saturday the Lord Moor and Sir Henry Tuchburne sallied out of the Town, and fell upon the Enemies, and drove them out of their Trenches, and raised their Siege, slew about 350 of their men, and took many of their chief Officers, and have relieved themselves bravely, and took 150 of their Muskets, and a Field full of Pikes, we having lost, as some affirm no men. Here are three of our Captains come by Land, so that this News is true.  
Upon Monday our Forces went out, 4000 Foot and 500 Horse, they are already within five miles of Tredagh: by the way; Lieutenant Colonel Reade came into our men, and submitted, if he had not done it he could not have fled: he is sent hither, and lodged in the Castle I do believe we shall now get good store of Corn out of the Country, which will keep the price from rising. Our men are not expected home this week, pray GOD keep them safe: Sir Philimy Oneale was in the Battle, but was feign to fly; and that was not like to serve turn.  
With my true love, I rest: Your affectionate Friend, R. H.   

It is this day Ordered, That this be forthwith Printed.
