Parliament Debates Army Funds and North Campaigns
The report covers long debate in the House of Commons over funding a 5000 li charge for the forces before Chester, with six months’ interest, and plans to send the ordinance to the Lords. It notes delays in church business, moves to reallocate dates, and mentions a Middles-Temple decision to admit Baron Tomlins. It also describes garrison deployments, surrenders at Skipton Castle, and a possible peace treaty, ending with word of the Prince of Orange’s death.
