Letter from Sir W Brereton that Breston Casle is taken
To the Right Honourable the Lords and others
of the Committee of both Kingdoms These
My Lords and Gentlemen,
"The Lord hath been pleased this Day to restore
unto us the strong Castle of Beston, which was lost
about this Time Two Years, and besieged by us
about this Day Twelve Months, since which Time
they have had no more Liberty but what was obtained, first by Prince Rupert and Prince Maurice their
Army in March list, which used u from that Stege,
which being after then Return made good, we were
again disturbed the Second Time by the King's Army, who came within Ten Miles or Namptwith, as
He marched towards Leicester We found in the
Castle about Eighty Arms, some little Ammunition,
but less Provision The Governor Captain Valett,
with about Fifty of the Soldiers, was permitted to
march away on Foot, with their Arms, to Flynt, and
so to Denbigh or Bewmorris, there remaining about
Forty, who laid down their Arms, and submitted
themselves, desiring Liberty to I've at Home The
Prize therein found being of very small Value, but
so much as it was, it is with Equality to be distributed amongst the Soldiers who have performed a
very tedious Stege. A great Part of that which they
had exacted from the Countly was bestowed upon
the Reparation and furnishing of the Castle It is
reputed to be One of the strongest Pieces in these
Parts of the Kingdom We found then Horses in a
weak and languishing Condition (the Governor's own
Horse being scarce able to go out of the Castle)
We were very exact in performing and making good
the Conditions agreed upon, which we hope may
produce a good Effect upon Chester, which is now so
straitened on the Welch Side, as no Manner of Provisions can be brought unto them"
