Fenwick

Another foray by Liddesdale was promptly met by Sir Raiff Fenwick and ended disastrously. Edmunde Noble an English outlaw who had accompanied the Scots, was taken prisoner. “And thus daily,” are told, “they of Lyddersdale which were a great number of thevys, did much harm in the East, Middle and West Marches of England.” Later on we find James expressing his dissatisfaction at the manner in which Angus (ie Archibald “Bell the Cat” Douglas”) and the Douglases had been received in England,and stating that the injuries committed by the “Nycsons, Elwoldis, Croysaris” (ie Nixon,Elwold-Ellwood-Elliott, Crozier) could not well be redressed while such traitors were were openly harboured. year 1528, page 258 The History of Liddesdale, Eskdale, Ewesdale, Wauchopedale and the …, Volume 1 By Robert Bruce Armstrong
