^{page 101 note b} In his account of the rebellion of the Earl of Tyrone at this period, Moryson (ii. 38) givesabrief notice of this meeting between him and the Earl of Essex; but he does not relate the conversation, and omits the names of the commissioners appointed to arrange a peace. They are found in the present document, and the whole transaction is related with curious particularity, apparently by a person who was either himself present, or had his information from one who was. The author of “The Lives of the three Earls of Essex,” 8vo. 1853 (vol. ii. p. 71,) does not give the same names as members of the commission, and Stowe supplies no information on the subject. The list of the knights slain in battle, or who died in their beds, is also new. Among the captains slain the name of Rich occurs, but this must be a mistake, (unless there were two officers of the name,) for Capt. Barnabe Rich survived his services in Ireland for many years.
