A True and full Relation of the horrible and hellish plot of the jesuits Popish Priests and other Papists in Ireland, for the Massacring of the two chief justices, and all the Privy Council and Protestants in that Kingdom.  
THe Lord Keeper declared unto the House of Commons, that the Lord Deputy of Ireland had received a Letter from the two Lord Chief justices and Privy Counsel in Ireland, of the discovery of an Horrible Plot by the jesuites, Popish Priest's and other Papist in the Kingdom of Ir●land, for the murdering of the two Chief justices and all the Privy Counsel and Protestant's o● ●re●and, as also to se●z● on all the King's ●●irs, C●stles and M●g●●en whats●e●er an● moreover, that they would murder all persons that should oppose them in any of their intentions and desires, which were these.  
1. First, to have their Crown not to be dependant upon England, nor to be a conquered Nation.  
2. Secondly, to have their Irish Laws established, and such as should be made hereafter.  
3. Thirdly, to have free liberty of the exercise of their Relegion.  
The Earl of Leicester declared the same also, adding that he had the original of a Proclamation which was made there, and had caused the same to be copied out. The Letter bears date the twenty third of October, 1641. declaring that Hugh Ocorett went to Dublin unto the lodging of Hugh Maymubawne his very good friend, and he and his friend going to the lodging of the Lord Marques, understood great store of Noble men and strangers had been there, but they were all gone abroad, and they could not find them; wherefore they returned bacl again to his friend's lodging, where his friend revealed unto him the whole Plot; but swore unto him he should not stir till it was put into execution, and therefore his friend commanded his servants to look narrowly to him: but after a while he feigned some excuse of necessity for his going down, which his friend gave way too, but sent his servants with him: when he was come down, the servants not being so careful to watch him as they might have been, he leapt over a wall in the yard, and made an escape, and went to Sir john Burlacy, and discovered to him the whole Plot, which was this.  
That at nine of the Clock the next morning, the Irish Rebels (amongst whom the Lord Marques was on of the chiefest) intended at one hour and moment of time, to massacre and murder all the English and Protestants in the Kingdom of Ireland, likewise to murder the two Lord chief justices, and all the privy council at Dublin, and at the same time, to seize upon all the King's Castles, Forts, and Magazens throughout the whole Kingdom of Ireland, as also the Castle of Dublin, and that if they should find any of the City that would not submit to them, than they would shoot down from the Castle, the tops of the Chimnies to affright them, and if that did not prevail, they would then batter down their houses about their cares. Hereupon the Lord chief justice and the rest of the privy Council of Ireland, sat all night in consultation, and took the best course they could imagine of for the safeguard & security of themselves; together with the Castle and City of Dublin. The next morning they apprehended great store of these Trators and Rebels, together with the Lord Marquis, who was gone from his lodging before day and hid in a Cockloft, and at his lodging they found great store of Chains, Hammers, and Hutchets without halves. The same day they had notice of several places and Forts seized upon in Conno and Monno and other places, together with several Villages plundered by the Rebels; but they wrote word that they did not believe that distemper was so general as was reported to be, and then they made no question but they should with care and pains bring all to a good issue; to that end they had sent for five hundred of the Horse to come and guard them at Dublin, and had likewise raise five hundred English for the sucuring of themselves and the City, and that out of those five hundred they had chosen an hundred to be put into the Castle under the command of Sir Francis Welloughby, who they hoped would give a good account to his Majesty of the place fees two Months: And in the mean time for fear lest there should be some further and worse plots than they knew of, they did desire that the Parliament in England would send them down their Lord Lieutenant with m●n, money and Ammunition. They further gave us to understand, that they had taken order for their Army of old Soldiers, to be in a readiness and to mare in opposition to any of the Rebels that should draw to a head.
