SOmething omitted in the last for want of Roome, doth here in
the first place crave your observance, and that was the Tumult
at Yorke, occasioned(as the Letters did advertise) by neere eight
hundred discontented Souldiers,who had a Designe to size upon
the persons of the Commissioners, and accordingly layd hold on
Sir Edward Rhodes and Master Rymer, whom not long after they
set free, having received some satisfaction from them by good
words and faire promises. Their chiefest Designe was against Sir
Robert Berwick, who having notice of it, escaped from them by
water, and having horses ready at his landing. He made all the hast
he could to his House at Tolston to defend himselfe from their violence.

Councel of State should examine the businesse, and proceed against
the chiese Actors as they shall find occasion.
