Yet another word to the wise : shewing, that the lamentable grievances of the Parliaments friends in Cumberland and Westmerland [sic]. Presented by their Commissioner, Mr. Iohn Musgrave, to the House of Commons above two yeares agoe, are so far yet from being redressed, that the House of Commons not only protecteth Mr. Richard Barwis, one of their owne members, from the law, being accused of high treason, as appeareth by the great charge against him in this treatise contained. As also against Sir Wilford Lawson, commander in chiefe of Cumberland, who betrayed that county into the enemies hands. ... But instead of doing justice either against them or other accused traytors to the common-wealth, they have most unjustly committed that worthy gentleman, Mr. John Musgrave, (their accuser and prosecuter to the Fleet prison) above these 12. moneths, without any kind of allowance to himselfe or family, or so much as any appearance yet of any faire hearing, triall, or deliverance. Matters worthy all the freemen of Englands serious observation

Matters of great concernement: both in the wars and Commonwealth. As they were truly related, subscribed, and directed, by Mr. Ia. Whinnell, to his wife, friends, and well-wishers, and by them published to the view of the world. Wherein there is great corruption, deceit, and injustice discovered, like the marchant adventurers monopoly, and other corporation patents: for the diligent perusall and serious observation of all the well affected, but chiefly of those who love the peace and freedome of this nation, and not onely or altogether their own private estate and condition
