To Topple a King: Parliamentary Forces Muster in London

Sir William Bacon
Following Yesterday's declaration for Parliament by Sir William Bacon, he has been joined in his efforts by Sir Bevill Dedge and his forces.

Parliamentary Commander Sir William Bacon was the first to muster and deploy troops to his cause. His troops are currently billeted in London and this force is estimated to be over 3,000 strong.

It is reported that alongside Bacon are his three trusted Captains Richard Sim, Hugh Jespear and Sir Oswald Lumpineck.

Today Sir William was joined by Sir Bevill Dedge as he marched his force of over 4,000 men into the capital to be placed at the service of Parliament. Dedge's command group includes Captains Howard Kentiby & Isaac Townes as well as the noted playwright Sir Aaron Graces, last seen in the capital when he opened his charming production 'The Wealthy Heiress'.
