<HEAD><HI>A Letter from aboard the</HI> Entrance, <HI>riding off Mount</HI> Orgueil <HI>Ca&s;tle in</HI> Jer&s;ey, 27 <HI>Octob.</HI> 1651.</HEAD>
<P>THE Lord hath been plea&s;ed to deliver into our hands, the I&s;le of <HI>Ier&s;ey</HI> on the 22 in&s;tant between 11 &amp; 12 of the clock in the night by ftorm.</P>
<P>Tue&s;day the 22 about two in the morning the Com|mi&s;&s;ion-Officers met aboard this &s;hip, riding in St. <HI>Bre|lades</HI> Bay, and having &s;ought God for a ble&s;&s;ing upon theirundertakings, it was upon con&s;ultation agreed, that by their Boats and &s;trength an attempt &s;hould be made upon the Enemy in <HI>Sentwons</HI> Bay, as the mo&s;t con|venient place to land in. Accordingly Gen: <HI>Blake</HI> or|dered the open boats and Ve&s;&s;els that carryed the Foot and Hor&s;e to bee manned out of our owne &s;hips, tho&s;e from <HI>England</HI> refu&s;ing to run their Ve&s;&s;els aground, The weather admitting no delay, the Foot were embarqued and forthwith &s;tood for <HI>Sentwons,</HI> but before we could hale clo&s;e to &s;hore, the Tide was &s;o far &s;pent, that it was conceived not rationall to fall on then, whereupon the boats lay by; and the &s;hips, viz. the <HI>Elizabeth, Phae|nix, Battery &s;hip,</HI> and <HI>Eagle,</HI> began to play upon the Forts with great guns, and &s;o continued near four hours, continually pelting, in&s;omuch that they did execution both on hor&s;e and foot, and prevented their getting in|to bodies. The Evening proving fair, and the wind fre&s;h from off the Sea, all the Captains of the Fleet took their boats, we manned and headed the Forlorn which was led by Cap. <HI>Dover,</HI> which gave them &s;ome incou|ragement more than ordinary. A party of the Enemies hor&s;e charged to the very heads of our boats, and for neer an hour there was a fierce encounter on both &s;ides, till Col. <HI>Hayne</HI> and the re&s;t could get in to their a&s;&s;i&s;t|ance, who for to give them all po&s;&s;ible and &s;peedy re|lief leapt into the water up to the wa&s;te, and &s;ome high|er: Whereupon the Enemy began to retreat, our for|ces thereby gaining ground, till after 3 or 4 volleys of &s;hot the enemy ran, in&s;omuch that we became ma&s;ters of their Forts, all along the Bay.</P>
<P>What the enemies lo&s;&s;e might be, we are not cer|tain, but there were wounded on our &s;ide about 16. and 4 kild: The Lieutenant of the Forlorn, and one more, are &s;ince dead of their wounds. Cap. <HI>Dover</HI> was &s;truck down with a bullet, but recovered him&s;elf again. One thing I forgot to acquaint you with, that when wee weighed from <HI>Brellades</HI> Bay, the Generall to amu&s;e and di&s;tract the enemy, left a part of the Fleet there, which by their Guns and &s;hooting in their boats did &s;o alarm them, that the Pa&s;tor of a Village in that Bay with his flock and the Forces ran away to <HI>Eliz<GAP DESC="illegible" REASON="faint" EXTENT="1 letter">beth</HI> ca&s;tle, wher their Governour <HI>Carteret</HI> is. Some pri&s;oners report that <HI>Carteret</HI> was him&s;elf in the action, but fled as &s;oon as any. The next morning Col. <HI>Hayne</HI> &s;ummoned the Tower and Ca&s;tle of St. <HI>Albans,</HI> where were 20 Guns, much Ammunition, Provi&s;ion, &amp;c. and on a &s;udden it was quitted unexpectedly, tho&s;e in it betaking them|&s;elves to the main Ca&s;tle, where (it is reported) all the chief I&s;landers and goods are lodged; whereof we doubt not in a &s;hort time to give a very &s;atisfactory account. Wee are now before the Ca&s;tle called <HI>Mount Orgueil,</HI> and &s;o &s;oon as we have done, it is po&s;&s;ible the General will make a trip to <HI>Guern&s;ey,</HI> and &s;ummon <HI>Corn<GAP DESC="illegible" REASON="missing" EXTENT="1 letter">t-Ca|&s;tle,</HI> of which wee have the more hope, they having &s;mall hope of relief.</P>
