Catholic Survival in Protestant Ireland, 1660–1711 Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 June 2018
Articles given in this appendix are those that have clauses relating to the property and livelihoods of the beneficiaries. Article 17 of the less well known military articles of Limerick, discussed above (p. 137), is also included. Articles that were purely military in nature, such as those signed at Cork (28 September 1690), have not been included.
Articles of Drogheda (3 July 1690)
The officers and soldiers of the garrison, as also the Roman Catholic clergy, and all others that shall desire it shall have leave to march to Mallow, taking with them their own proper arms, but to leave behind them all public stores of canon, ammunition or other habiliments of war without embezzlement.
They shall take with them sufficient provisions for their journey and shall have a safe convoy thither with baggage and horses.
The Roman Catholic dwellers of the town shall not be molested in their properties.
All sick officers and soldiers shall have leave to stay in town till recovered, and then shall be conducted to the next garrison.
[Four further articles included, giving various assurances regarding safe passage with baggage.]
Articles of Waterford (25 July 1690)
[The articles of Waterford were identical to those of Drogheda. The only difference was the substitution of the word ‘city’ for ‘town’ in article 3.]
Articles of Galway (21 July 1691)
William and Mary, by the grace of God,
To all whom these presents shall come, greeting. Whereas certain articles bearing date 21 July last past were made and agreed upon by our trusty and well beloved Robert [sic], Baron de Ginkel, Lieutenant General and Commander in Chief of our forces in our kingdom of Ireland, and the constable and Governor of our town of Galway in our said Kingdom, whereby our said General promises that we should ratify these capitulations within the space of three months from the date thereof or sooner, the tenor of which said articles is as follows:
That the town and fort of Galway shall be given up to his Excellency or such officer as he shall appoint on Sunday morning next by six of the clock, together with all the stores of ammunition and provision and magazines of all forts without embezzlement, and that immediately upon the signing these articles such person as the general shall appoint have leave to inspect them.
