^ Thomas, Lord Egiemont, left an only son, Jolin Percy, who is supposed to have died without issue.
112 THE HOUSE OF PERCY the tenants and supporters of the regent were ruthlessly plundered.
Furious at these evidences of renewed activity on the part of the young lords, York rashly advanced against the queen's army with only 10,000 men. Reaching Wakefield in Decembe...r he found his way barred by 20,000 royalists, commanded by the queen, Northumberland, and Clifford.
The regent took temporary refuge in Sandal Castle, with the intention of awaiting reinforcements ; but on December 31 his proud spirit could no longer brook inactivity, and he sallied forth to do battle against these heavy odds. Had he but remained in Sandal until after Christmas, he must have been relieved by Warwick ; as it was he rushed blindly to defeat and death. ^^ Invironed on every side, like fish in a net J he fongJit vianfullie ; yet was he within half an hour slain, and dead, and his ariny discomfited." ^ Nearly 2800 Yorkists died around their chief, ^^ whereof vianie were young gentlemen and heires of great parentage in the South Partes!"^ The lust for vengeance overmastered all other feelings on the part of many of the victors.
