Sword, found near Newark-on-Trent, 9th-10th Century

From the British Museum

[scotianostra]

On 5th May 1646 King Charles Stewart surrendered to Scottish Covenanters besieging Newark on Trent.

The Scottish forces took him to Newcastle to bargain with him. The English Parliamentary army threatened to take the King from the Scots by force.Charles was the last King of Scots to be born in Scotland, although he lived most of his life in England, where his subjects ultimately grew tired of his tyranny and decided to terminate his career. In fact, they terminated him, period. He wasn’t the only King of Scots to have been killed by Englishmen, but he was the only one to be tried, found guilty and executed by Englishmen. Of course, those Englishmen who were happy to be associated with regicide weren’t in the least bit concerned that Charlie was also King of Scots. Whatever the manner of his living, the manner of King Charles’ death was befitting of a King – at least that’s what they thought in those days – his big heid was chappit aff.

To have been tried and sentenced, Charles had to have been apprehended in the first instance, but he was a slippery character. After the writing was on the wall, so to speak, he tried his damndest to avoid being detained by his English subjects, but ultimately his luck ran out. The beginning of the end came on the 5th of May, 1646, when King Charles Stuart surrendered to the Scottish Covenanters engaged in the siege of Newark on Trent. The Scots then escorted him to Newcastle; intent on bargaining with the English for their own advantage. The English Parliamentary Army countered that manoeuvre by threatening to take the King by force. Eventually, in settlement of an indemnity agreed earlier, through the Treaty of Ripon, in 1641, the Scots agreed to hand over the King. But the story doesn’t end there; the crafty Charlie wasn’t yet ready to give up.

The King arrived at the Scottish headquarters at Southwell, on the 5th of May, 1646, and surrendered himself to Lieutenant General David Leslie, who was acting commander of the Covenanter army as his namesake, Alexander Leslie, the Earl of Leven, had withdrawn to Newcastle. Charles’ surrender seems to have been negotiated secretly between the Scots and Cardinal Mazarin’s envoy, Jean de Montereul. The Frenchman conveyed Charles’ offer to go to the Scots Army on receiving assurances that he would be secure, and that the Scots would assist in procuring peace. On Charles’ orders, Lord Belasyse surrendered Newark on the 8th of May, 1646, and on that very same day, the Scots broke camp and marched north to Newcastle, with the King in semi-captivity.

Charles’s hopes of turning the Scots into his allies were dashed because he couldn’t accept their demands – the ‘Newcastle Propositions’ – for Presbyterianism to be imposed on England. When the Scots Army received a third of its back pay, they handed Charles over to Parliament. That occurred in January, 1647, and three months later, in April, the ‘New Model Army’, which was itself in disagreement with the Presbyterian faction in Parliament, secured the person of the King. However, good ol’ Charlie wasn’t done yet. He escaped and after refusing to compromise over a settlement with the Army or with Parliament, Charles signed the ‘Engagement’ with the Scots. The ensuing Scottish invasion, and simultaneous Royalist uprisings in England and Wales, resulted in the short, but bitterly fought Second Civil War.

The Second Civil War culminated in Cromwell’s victory over the Scots at the Battle of Preston, in August, 1648. By then, the writing was truly on the wall for Charles. In January, 1649, Parliament appointed a High Court of Justice and the King was charged with high treason against the people of England. Charles I was found guilty and sentenced to death on the 27th of January, 1649. The King lost his heid on a scaffold outside the Banqueting House at Whitehall on the 30th of January.
