The History of England from the Accession of James II.

CHAPTER XVII
243/271

[126] On the first of October, Coningsby and Porter arrived at the English headquarters.

On the second the articles of capitulation were discussed at great length and definitely settled.

On the third they were signed.
They were divided into two parts, a military treaty and a civil treaty.
The former was subscribed only by the generals on both sides.

The Lords justices set their names to the latter.

[127] By the military treaty it was agreed that such Irish officers and soldiers as should declare that they wished to go to France should be conveyed thither, and should, in the meantime, remain under the command of their own generals.
