e said to be employed
and in
part maintained
by the spinning of wool for the bay trade of Colchester
and its adjacent towns. The account of the siege
A.D. 1648

of the most remarkable passages
are as follows

A Diary: Or
An Account Of The Siege And Blockade Of Colchester
A.D. 1648.
On the 4th of June
we were alarmed in the town of Colchester that the
Lord Goring
the Lord Capel
and a body of two thousand of the loyal
party
who had been in arms in Kent
having left a great body of an army
in possession of Rochester Bridge
where they resolved to fight the Lord
Fairfax and the Parliament army
had given the said General Fairfax the
slip
and having passed the Thames at Greenwich
were come to Stratford
and were advancing this way; upon which news
Sir Charles Lucas
Sir
George Lisle
Colonel Cook
and several gentlemen of the loyal army
and
all that had commissions from the king
with a gallant appearance of
gentlemen volunteers
drew together from all parts of the country to join
with them.
