MISCELLANY XIII
Betwixt two and three o’clock some burghers were said to be
carrying about a petition to the Magistrates for subscriptions praying the
Town should capitulate. The Alarm being great at the westport, the guns
there were loaded and the other works pressed on so that they were
almost finished when an account came that a meeting in the New Church
had agreed to capitulate, One of the Volunteers called on the Provost to
know what was to be done to the cannon, but was told that his Lordship
had not time to speak to him. The call of All Is Well did not go round the
wall this night as the former and the Town seemed to be quit of its
defense. The volunteers delivered their arms into the Castle.
