A
Letter
concerning
a
great
Victory
obtained
by
Colonell
Rossiter
,
against
Prince
Rupert
and
Prince
Maurice
,
neer
Belvoyr
Castle
in
Leicestershire
.
SIR
,
I
Shall
give
you
an
account
of
what
intelligence
these
parts
afford
.
On
Tuesday
morning
we
received
intelligence
that
Prince
Rupert
&
P.
Maurice
were
at
Banbury
upon
their
march
towards
Newark
,
some
reported
them
to
be
twelve
hundred
,
others
six
hundred
;
Vpon
which
Intelligence
all
the
horse
belonging
to
this
Garrison
,
being
three
hundred
,
and
four
hundred
more
which
lay
at
Stamford
,
were
drawn
to
Melton
by
Colonell
Rossiter
,
to
interpose
betwixt
the
King
and
the
Princes
,
or
to
joyn
with
the
Horse
and
Dragoons
under
Colonell
Manwaring
then
at
Leicester
,
and
since
gone
to
Derby
to
joyn
with
Colonell
Generall
Points
.
Yesterday
morning
upon
intelligence
from
Burleigh
,
that
the
report
of
Prince
Ruperts
comming
was
false
,
and
the
King
being
returned
backe
to
Newarke
,
our
Horse
were
ordered
to
march
back
to
Grantham
,
no
sooner
were
we
marching
,
but
from
Leicester
we
recevied
Intelligence
that
the
Princes
were
upon
their
march
towards
Belvoir
,
we
pursued
them
with
all
speed
,
they
faced
us
twice
as
though
they
would
have
charged
,
but
upon
our
advance
to
them
they
run
for
Belvoir
,
we
pursued
them
close
to
the
castle
walls
,
took
a
Major
,
three
Captains
,
sixty
Prisoners
,
Prince
Maurice's
Trumpeter
,
Trumpet
and
Banner
,
and
about
one
hundred
and
forty
Horses
,
we
wounded
and
killed
divers
,
some
of
quality
,
the
two
Princes
hardly
escaping
with
about
one
hundred
more
.
Some
of
the
Officers
we
have
taken
,
told
us
that
the
Princes
sent
the
Lord
of
Northamptons
Regiment
back
to
Banbury
,
and
marched
with
this
small
party
onely
to
speake
with
the
King
,
and
take
their
leaves
of
him
.
The
King
is
now
in
Newark
,
his
Horse
quartered
betwixt
Newark
and
Welbeck
,
part
of
them
:
and
as
we
hear
,
Sir
Marmaduke
Langdale
with
the
rest
marched
Northward
,
it
is
likely
to
releeve
Skipton
Castle
,
Colonell
Generall
Points
is
come
to
Derby
,
and
Colonell
Manwaring
is
gone
to
him
,
which
I
hope
will
give
us
a
further
occasion
of
sending
to
to
you
,
Sir
,
Your
Servant
.
