A full and true Account of the Cruelty of the Rebels in SCOTLAND.  
THe first breaking out of this the bellion was on the 29th. of May last past, upon which day about 80 persons well mounted came to Ruglau Market-Cross, and there as an affront to His Majesty and His Government burned publicly several established Acts of Parliament, As that of Supremacy, and that for suppressing field Conventicles, as that for Establishing Prelacy, with the necessary order, and afterwards placed a scandalous Libel, or as they termed it a Declaration upon the Market-Cross, and would have done the same at Glasgou, but were prevented by His Majesty's Soldiers in Garrison.  

The Declaration of the Rebels, in the very words as it was designed to have been put up by them at Glascow, and was actually put up at Rugland.  
As the Lord hath been pleased still to keep and preserve his interest in the Land, by the Testimony of some faithful witnesses from the Beginning, so in Our Days some have not been wanting, who, through the greatest of Hazards, had added their Testimonies to those who have gone before them, by suffering Death, Banishment, Torturing, Fining, Forfeitures, Imprisonments, etc. flowing from cruel and perfidious Adversaries to the Church and Kingdom of our Lord jesus Christ in the Land. Therefore we owning the Interest of Christ according to the word of the Lord, and the National and solemn League and Covenant, desire to add Our Testimony to the Testimonies of the worthies that has gone before, (though unworthy, yet hoping as true Members of the Church of Christ in Scotland) and that against all Things that has been done prejudicial to his interest from the Beginning of the work of Reformation in Scotland, especially from the Year 1648, to the Year 1660. against the foregoing Acts.  
And for confirmation of this Our Testimony, We do hereby this day, being the 29th day of May 1679. Publicly Burn them at the Cross of Glasgou most justly, as they perfidiously and Blasphemously had Burnt Our Holy Covenants, through several Cities of the Covenanted Kingdoms. We are ready always to do it, if judgged Necessary, with all the faithful Suffering Brethren in the Land.   
This done, they gathered into a considerable body on Lansdown Hill on Sunday following, of which Cap. Graham of Cleaver house having notice, drew out what force he had, viz. His own Troop of Horse, and a Company of Dragoones, and with an English resolution went to Charge them. Upon his approach be found the Rebels to be 1500 strong, who upon the discovery of his March towards them, sent out two parties to Skirmish with him, the which he charged with such bravery, that they presently retreated to their Main body, the which with like resolution he attaked, Charging through the Enemies main body, and killing a very considerable number, but after the loss of about 20 Dragooners, two Brigadiers, and eight of his own Troop, his own Horse being shot under him, and his Cornet slain, he finding himself overpowerd by odds of number, thought fit to retreat, the which he did with the like gallantry, but in his way to Glasgou, the Rustics of Strewin were assembled to oppose him, whereupon he charged through them and left 11 or 12 of them dead upon the place.  
The next day (the Rebels-taking heart at this first success) drew up their Forces against the City of Glasgou, and assaulted it in two several places, but were beaten off with considerable loss, whereupon the Dragooners and Horse sallied out and fell upon their Rear, taking some Prisoners, and killing ma●y, but they increasing in number, and fortifying themselves obliged his Majesty's Forces at that time to Retreat, and again besieged the City aforesaid, and after a sharp dispute, and brave defence, became Masters thereof, at their first entrance, john Balfour of Kinlock (who is instituted by the Rebels as Major) holding up his hand, and with an impudent face proclaimed, This is the hand that murdered Sharp, meaning his Grace, the Lord Bishop of St. Andrews, whom he had barbarously Massacred, and likewise Haxslone and some ot●er of the Rebel made Proclamation that they fought against Supremacy and Prelacy: after which they proceeded to farther Villainies.  
First they rob the Archbishop of Glasgoves' house, tore down his Tapestry Hang, broke open his Chests and Trunks, and set his Cellar afloat with Beer and Wine after some of the principal had drank their fills, and in fine made a miserable spoil of all his Goods, nothing being saved but a small parcel of books, the which his Servants had conveyed to some Neighbours houses, his Lordship, a Heaven doubtless had ordained, was absent, or else unquestioned he had been murdered by their cruel hands, after this they proceeded to the great Cathedral, and pulled down all the Ornaments, defacing several Monuments, of note, and exported the Communion Vestments, the p●ate ●aving been timely conveyed away.  
The next barbarous exploit in that City by these inhuman Rebels was, they plundered the Bishop of Argiles house, and after a miserable Havoc t●●r●, they went to his Chapel, and their digging from their silent Graves two of his Lordship's children that had lately been interred, took up the Coffins, broke them open, and run their Swords through them several times and left the bodies of the poor infants above ground, as Monuments of their inhuman Villainy and Cruelty.  
Thus far went these Rebels, and loath to stop here, Crowned all their Villainies with one more, in a Merchant's great Hall, they finding his Majesty's Picture, ●ore it down, and after in an hundred pieces, thereby manifesting their rebellious Pride, and vile esteem of Majesty that sacred Order that Omnipotence designed to be his Viceroy here below.  
Having given you a full Narrative of their Cruel deeds, while in their Rendezvous they held Rebellious and Lawless practices. Now I shall declare what good success his Majesty's Army have had against them, some of the Rebels being got together in the Sheriff of Fife, began to ravage the Country, stealing and driving away by force of Arms several hundred Horses to unite and reinforce their Rebellious Accomplices, upon notice of which, and the Lord Chancellors coming over to give Orders to the Militia and Heritors raised for the King in those parts: they made to Sterling where being met by the Earl of Murray's Deputy Steward for the Lordship of Down and the Lord Elfingstoun, near the narrow entrance or pass of the town aforesaid they were defeated and scattered, abundance of them being killed in pusuit, and about 100 of them taken Prisoner and brought into Sterling remaining there as yet Prisoners, And it is credibly reported that there is three or four of the twelve that murdered the Archbishop) amongst those that are taken, of the which we shall hereafter be better able to inform you.  
After His Grace the Duke of Monmouth came over and Headed his Majesty's Army, all people's fears began to vanish, and of Graces so undoubted courage and Conduct, inflamed them with happy expectations, the which accordingly succeeded: for his Grace on Sunday morning the 22th. of this instant june, drew up his Majesty's Force in Barralia, in view of the Enemy, the River of Clide only intercepting, whereupon the Rebels send over a Petition, that they would lay down their Arm and disperse themselves, if they might have the Articles specified in their Declaration fulfilled, to which his grace returned answer, that it was contrary to the Laws of the Nation, and prejudicial to the Government, and that he neither could nor would grant their illegal demands, but if they would deposit their Arms and submit to the King's mercy he would desist to attacke them. The which they refusing, His Grace Commanded the Cannon to ply against their Ranks, and Commanded a party party out ●o attack Bothwel-Bridge, the which the Rebels had well fortified, the Party charging with so fierce a Resolution, that at the first Order, the Rebels that were Posted there fled, upon which his Majesty's Forces passed over the Bridge, & Charged the Rebels who were drawn up in Battalia with the advantage of a rising Hill, whereupon the Rebels opening their Orders, discharged their Canon but to the little or no damage of his Majesty's Force: This done his Grace commanded the Army to advance, the which was done with such bravery and Resolution that at first Charge the Enemies main body was broke, and their wings of Horse put to the rout, and in disorder fled to Hamilton Park, and their sheltered from the English valour in a Wood, upon which defeat his Grace drew up his Troops of Horse, and enclosed the Wood and Park, and ordered his Lieutenant Duglass to en●er the wood aforesaid, and therein killed a number of the Rebels, and it is reported that in the Ba●tel and pursuit there were one or two thousand of the Rebel's ●ild, besides many taken Prisoners, and that they are utterly broken and dispersed. The loss of our side is very inconfiderable counting the advantage the Rebels had.
