I note that from the Dictionary of National Biography that Hurry (or Urry) was present at Brentford, 12th November, 1642. I think I read somewhere that there was a small force of Parliamentarian Horse present, and assume that he was the commander, Baillie, in his Letters & Journals, states that Hurry, after the skirmish was "for his stoutness and wisdom much cryed upon by the Londoners."
Has anyone anything on the battle, or Hurry himself (perhaps an OBSCURE BATTLE?- Ed)
