[125] Possibly, as suggested in the _Victoria History of Lincolnshire_ (vol. ii. pp. 284-85), the first password in each case was for Tuesday, the second for Wednesday.

[126] He was younger brother of Ralph, Lord Hopton, the Royalist commander in the West. Cromwell is said to have visited Horncastle after the battle to see that the body of this “brave gentleman,” as he styled him, was fitly interred. It is possible that he owed his life to Hopton’s forbearance at a critical moment.

[128] Mr. E. Peacock, F.S.A. (_Lincs.

But the letter of the Essex soldier (below) disproves this; and I suggest that a force from Lincoln invested the place till it was compelled to retire by the severity of the weather.
