Before setting out on his northward march Oliver with great cleverness issued a proclama- tion stating that all the country people not in arms would be free from molestation by the soldiers. Also, that all food-supplies brought in by them for his army would be punctually paid for ; the result of which was that his men were far better supplied with food than any of the other armies in Ireland. Before leaving Dublin Father Latham saw Oliver face to face one evening when he was returning to his ho...use at the corner of Werburgh and Castle streets. He also told me that there was a deal of preaching from the Puritans and much exhortation. But in spite of their deep religious feeling the troopers had stabled their horses in St. Patrick's Cathedral. CHAPTER XIV, Which tdls of the state of Drogheda when Cromwell marched from Dublin. ON tlie 23rd of August the Confederates had held a council of war and had decided that Drogheda must be held against the enemy at all cost. Sir Arthur Aston had, therefore, given orders that the castles of Bellewstown, Athcairne, Belgard and Dardistown must be destroyed in order to prevent the Puritans from using them.
