Commons Hear of New Army Plans and Field Victories
The Commons approve pay for messengers of news and debate the new army list under Sir Thomas Fairfax. Reports arrive of Langdale’s troops marching north to relieve Pirmfres or Scarborough, Northamptonshire actions against three enemy parties, and a Maneuver near Daventry. Colonel Mary’s forces win a victory in the Forrest of Deaney with prisoners taken and casualties on both sides.
