<HEAD>HORRIBLE NEWS FROM <HI>BEVERLEY.</HI></HEAD>
<OPENER><SALUTE>SIR,</SALUTE></OPENER>
<P>HAving &s;o fit an occa&s;ion to write to you, and knowing how an&s;werable our horte&s;tive News will be to your De&s;ires; I have thought it nece&s;&s;ary to informe you of the mo&s;t Remarkable pa&s;&s;ages that have hapned from the 17. of this pre&s;ent <HI>July</HI> to the Date hereof.</P>
<P>On <HI>Monday</HI> His Maje&s;ty went to &s;ur|vey His Forces, and to give Command that Civill Order &s;hould be kept in e|very quarter, expre&s;&s;ing a great deale of
<PB REF="3">Care of His Subjects, and indeavovring to pre&s;erve them from any Oppre&s;&s;ion, and by his Princely Demeanour, and frequent pa&s;&s;ing Declaration, to draw more to His Party, which is at this time very con&s;iderable.</P>
<P>On <HI>Tue&s;day</HI> it was generally thought that his Maje&s;ty would have given An|&s;wer to the Petition pre&s;ented by the Earl of <HI>Holland</HI> from the <HI>Parliament,</HI> but of a certainty I cannot inform you. This day the Earl of <HI>Lind&s;ey</HI> indeavoured a Ve&s;&s;ell laden with Victuall and other Provi&s;ion, comming down <HI>Humber</HI> to <HI>Hull,</HI> but by the A&s;&s;i&s;tance of two &s;hips lately &s;ent by the Earl of <HI>Warwicke,</HI> the Ve&s;&s;el was &s;afely conducted, and the &s;aid Earl glad to &s;trike &s;aile, and tru&s;t to his heeles or el&s;e He had mi&s;taken his way and &s;ayled for <HI>London</HI> in&s;tead of <HI>Bever|ley.</HI></P>
<P>On <HI>Wedne&s;day</HI> Sir <HI>John Hotham</HI> having intelligence that the Fort lately rai&s;ed at <HI>Paul</HI> by the Earl of <HI>Lind&s;ey</HI> was but weakly guarded, He &s;ent out a party in
<PB REF="3">the Evening, when it grew darki&s;h, to &s;ee if they could that means obtain it, that doing him mo&s;t hurt: But the Earl of <HI>Lind&s;ey</HI> having left his &s;hip be|ing cha&s;ed by the Earl of <HI>Warwickes</HI> &s;hips, was &s;ecretly arrived; &s;o that fin|ding they could not attempt it without great lo&s;&s;e, they cho&s;e rather to retreat, then at &s;o dear a rate to purcha&s;e it.</P>
<P>This day likewi&s;e came News to <HI>Be|verley</HI> of a great skirmi&s;h fought at <HI>Manchi&s;ter,</HI> between the Lord <HI>Strange</HI> and the Lieutenants for the <HI>Militia,</HI> &s;ent thither by the <HI>Parliament.</HI></P>
<P>Collonel <HI>Luasford</HI> is &s;ent forth with Hor&s;e and Foot, but to what end is not yet known; but as &s;ome think to a&s;&s;i&s;t Mr. <HI>Henry Ha&s;tings,</HI> Son to the Earle of <HI>Huntington,</HI> who hath gained a great par|ty in <HI>Leice&s;ter&s;hire,</HI> and it is feared, that they intend forcibly to ceaze upon the <HI>Magazine</HI> of that County.</P>
<P>The Kings Maje&s;ty is gone in per&s;on to <HI>Leice&s;ter&s;hire,</HI> tis thought to put the <HI>Commi&s;&s;ion of Array</HI> in execution.</P>
<P><PB REF="4">
<LABEL>Thur&s;day.</LABEL><LB>
Upon <HI>Thur&s;day</HI> Newes came to His Maje&s;ty, that Mr. <HI>Digby,</HI> Brother to the Lord <HI>Digby,</HI> had ray&s;ed a troop of hor&s;e and did intend very &s;uddenly to pre&s;ent His &s;ervice to His Maja&s;ty.</P>
<P><LABEL>Friday.</LABEL><LB>
On <HI>Friday</HI> &s;everall Cavaleers returned out of <HI>Lincoln&s;hire</HI> with Hor&s;e and Am|munition, that they had forcibly taken from the Inhabitants of the &s;aid Coun|ty.</P>
<P>But for ought it could be conceived they received no great thanks from His Maje&s;ty; neither doth His Maje&s;ty con|temn any other of tho&s;e abu&s;es, which are daily offered to the inhabitants of the&s;e parts</P>
<P>One thing now I will tell you, the Countrey is afraid that we &s;hall have &s;uch a Race of Cavaleers, that we &s;hall never be free from the&s;e di&s;tractions; for
<PB REF="4">we have &s;carce a good Maid within ten miles of the <HI>Camp:</HI> we can &s;carce keepe our wives from being over-run.</P>
<P>His Maje&s;ty in his own per&s;on &s;etled the Array in good po&s;ture in <HI>Lincoln|&s;hire,</HI> and he is expected to go into <HI>Wil|&s;hire,</HI> to &s;ettle the <HI>Militia;</HI> for it is Re|ported the generall County &s;tands bet|ter affected to the King, then to the <HI>Par|liament,</HI> although the Earl of <HI>Pembroke</HI> hath endeavoured in his own per&s;on to di&s;po&s;e of the &s;ame.</P>
<P>There had like to have bin a great combu&s;tion in the Army between &s;eve|rall Captains; namely, Captain <HI>Atkin|&s;on,</HI> Captain <HI>Ward,</HI> Colonel <HI>Lunsford,</HI> and divers Lieutenants, which indeavoured to rai&s;e Parties; but at his Maje&s;ties re|turn two of them were ca&s;heer'd, and the re&s;t checkt for their di&s;obedience.</P>
<P>A great mi&s;chance hapned in <HI>Hull,</HI> a great Barn of Corn was &s;et on fire, and it is feared, that it was done by &s;ome of the Inhabitants that &s;tand not well af|fected to the <HI>Parliament.</HI></P>
