403 and upon the 22d day of October, a party of horse, sent only with a wretched c<_>rporall, came about 11 of the · clock with a warrant from Mr. Leke, and fetcht him back to Newark, to the inne where he was before, Mr. Twentimans, who being sti ll civil! to him, whisper'd him assoone as he allighted, that it was determined he should be close prisoner; whereupon the collonell say'd he would no more pay any centinells that they set t upon him, yett . they sett two hired souldiers, having now dismist the county, but the collonell forbade the inne to give them any drinke, or anicthing elce upon his account. The next day, '-being the 2Sd, Mr. Leke came to him and shew'd him a letter from my Lord Newcastle, wherein my lord writt that he was sorry he could not persue that kindnesse he intended the collonell, believing him innocent, for that he had receiv'd a command from Buckingham to keepe him close prisoner, without pen, inke, or paper; and to sbcw the reality of this, with tl1e order he sent a ';opie of the duke's letter, which was alsoe shew'd the collone!; and in it was this expression, "that though he could not make " it out as yett, he hop'd he should bring M1· . .llutchinson into the Of Buckingham we shall again haYe occasion to speak. As we shall not again see any thing more of thi:-:; l1'ulg noble man, the :Marquis of Newcastle, we take this opportunity to cite, from. a tradition preserved by Dee t:ing in his Hi story of Nottingham, that at the time of the great revolution another Cavendish, Earl, and afterwards ,Puke of Devonshire, together with Lord Delamere, son of that Sir George Booth whose life and fortunes Col. Hutchinson preservE::d, together with Col. Hutchinson's half brother, and others of that country, se t up the ir standa~d at Nottingham; there waked again the soul of lilx~rty and patriotism, wh ich had slept ever since Col. Hutchinson's days, nnd causing the trumpet to sound to arms, and telljug the inhabitants a Stuart wns nt hand with all' h is army, saw the whole people fly to arms, some on horseback, some on foot, with all the various weapons they could f-ind, march all as one man to mee t him , <1 nd take their determined stand at that pass of the Trent where their old gove rnor h~d repeatedly fought and con quered, and whose spirit they imag ined to hover ove r and in spire them with its wonted energy . Having thus tried their temper, he committed to the g uard of these true-born sons of freedom, that princess ( Anne) who was to carry the British name to its hi ghes t pitch of glory.
