Siege and North country funding drive amid parliamentary decree
The Lords and Commons order rapid aid to Essex for peace preservation and to push back insurrections. A letter reports three besieged castles near Kear with one surrendering, two awaiting delivery as provisions run short. Parliament condemns royalist forces entering England and approves 20000 pounds via excise for northern troops plus revenues from northern realms to fund Major Lambert’s forces.
