Brought in by force, and out shall goe by blood," &c.

It occupies about thirty lines more. At the bottom of the title, and at the
conclusion of the postscript, it has merely the initials S. D. Could any of
your worthy correspondents inform me who S. D. was?

The MS. is evidently cotemporary, and, according to the introduction, was
"ordered to be forthwith published, [MDCXLVI in apostrophus form].;" and as
I cannot trace that such a production was ever issued, the answer would
confer a favour on

_Arthur Pomeroy, Dean of Cork._--Can any one of your genealogical readers
assist me in ascertaining the parentage of Arthur Pomeroy, who was made
Dean of Cork in 1672? He was fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, in which
university he graduated as A.B. in 1660, M.A. in 1664, and S.T.P. in 1676.
He is stated in Archdale's edition of Lodge's _Peerage of Ireland_ (article
"Harberton") to have sprung from the Pomeroys of Ingsdon in Devonshire, and
is stated to have gone to Ireland as chaplain to the Earl of Essex, Lord
Lieutenant.

_Civil War Tract._--

"A Letter sent from a worthy Divine, to the Right Honourable the Lord
Mayor of the City of London. Being a true relation of the battaile
fought betweene His Majesty and his Excellence the Earle of Essex. From
Warwicke Castle, the 24. of October, 1642, at two a clock in the
morning. Together with a Prayer for the happy uniting of the King and
parliament, fit to be used by all good Christians, daily in their
houses. London, Octob. 27. Printed for Robert Wood. 1642."

The above is the title of a tract now in my possession. Is it known to any
collector of tracts relating to the Battle of Edgehill? Who was the "worthy
divine," the writer?

P. Q.

[On the title-page of this tract among the King's pamphlets in the
British Museum, the name of Mr. Bifield has been written. No doubt it
is the production of the Rev. Adoniram Byfield, chaplain to Col.
Cholmondeley's regiment, in the army of the Earl of Essex in 1642, and
who was subsequently one of the scribes to the Assembly of Divines, and
a most zealous Covenanter. See Wood's _Athenae_, by Bliss, vol. iii. p.
670.]
