Col: Okey with his Dragoons, laying Siege to Bor∣rough Garrison, had it yesterday Surrendred unto him on bare Quarter, Capt. Smith and 120. more being in it, 80. Muskets, and 40. T••••e locks. The Army con∣tinues Siege before Bridgewater▪ and 〈◊〉〈◊〉 by Storming or Starving, will undoubtedly shortly carry it; for they are not provided for a Siege, wanting Vi∣ctuals. Goring is fled to Barstable in great confusion, not 140. foot with him; the Club men much annoy him, he hath not 1400. Horse for Service left, the rest women and boyes.

One Coll. and a French Gentleman of quality, con∣tinue in a Commanders hands still, whose Names are not yet returned to the Provost Marshall.

Sir Francis Courtney lyes dangerously wounded at Bridgewater, and other Officers of quality: Sir John Digby is there also wounded.

Common Souldiers taken 1200. whereof 500. have taken the Covenant and taken up Armes, being first ap∣proved by Mr. Ash, and Mr. Moor, Members of the Parliament.

The inclosures being many, abundance of the Foot escaped and got to the club-men, who disarmed them, and gave them leave to go to their homes; they dis∣armed 300. at one time, Horse and Foot.

Our men were so eager on the pursuit, that they left the prisoners to themselves to march back to the Ar∣my, who escaping, made the number fall short of that was assured they were of.

There is in Bridgewater about 30. piece of Ordnance, 1000. Souldiers Welch and Townsmen, moated a∣bout, water deep, having the benefit of the Tide.
