Description:
|
24 January 1645: a copy of a letter from Sir William Brereton regarding his victory near Chester. Later letters certify that Sir William Brereton's forces were greatly outnumbered and therefore Wallington attributes the victory to God's great mercy. Includes a list of the most notable officers taken prisoner.
