Army of 21000 ready for Scotland and Pacification terms
The document reports planned deployment of a 21 000 strong army to Scotland by the sixteenth of the next month, with assurances to pacify and deter papist factions. It notes parliamentary accord on the Covenant, and ongoing negotiations with Scottish commissioners regarding Article alterations and transportation by sea if winds permit. Reports from Edenborough and Lord Fairfax describe military moves near Beaver and Hall, with a siege in progress and trials prepared for Sir Thomas and his son.
