Hi Nancy
Apart from the highway robbery/assault mentioned in my last posting, the =
only thing that immediately comes to hand is the following:
Richard Westover deposed before John Pyne, 11th July, 1650, that being =
at the tavern of Mr. Carpenter, in Taunton, when certain of the company =
understood that he had taken the Engagement, they shouted at him going =
down the stairs "an Engagement man!" and said they were all knaves that =
took the Engagement, that had taken the Covenant.
There was a lot of argument at that time, certainly within Somerset, =
both for and against Cromwell and Parliament. A man who nailed his =
colours too boldly to the mast could find himself the target of much =
abuse from his political opposites!
If I see anything else relating to Westover, I'll copy it and post it.
Cheers!
Sue
