Note 114a — Chapter VI · THE FIELD OF THE BATTLE OF TOWTON. [81a]
Reading edition
His design was to have dislodged the body of Yorkists under Lord Fitzwalter’s command, posted at Ferrybridge, and to have prevented their army from passing the Aire there. It is remarkable that we do not read of any other forces having been sent to his support, from the main army of the Lancastrians.
