An exact and humble remonstrance touching the late conflict of armies in and neer the county of Pembrooke;: and the present condition of the harbour of Milford. Presented to the Honourable Committee of the two united kingdomes, England and Scotland, by such as were very lately resident in the said county. Together with a word of remembrance and advice, seasonably they hope, directed to the committee of the said county, and mayor of Penbrooke [sic].

Good Reader,

IT may be thy curious eye will not be satisfied with Generall Relations, and if we descend to particulars, there may be some injury done to Truth against our will; and it were great pitty so rare a Grace should receive the least blemish by Friends, seeing she is so oft-times wronged both by the ignorant and malicious Enemy. If we should take on us to tell thee how many were taken, and how many slaine, we might say, we misse about 300. and speak our thoughts, and yet not punctually (it may be suitable) to the verity of the matter. This I would have thee note, That this unhappy clashing hapned not many dayes after valiant Crumwell took Heathen Sir Henry Vaughan Colonell and Welchman, with all his Bare—Foot going to Ox∣ford. If thou wilt promise to be candid in thy construction, thou shalt have once more other matters come to thy hand, if God will, very shortly. It is yet but Low-water at Milford, as soon as it it Halfe-flood, our trusty Mercury, that loves not to talke so large as others, will hoyse up saile and bring thee true intelli∣gence, and very probably, pleasing too, if thou be not a blood-thir∣sty Irish-man, or his base English confederate:

Farewell.
