May 1649 CE

The commander of the New Model Army, Sir Thomas Fairfax, at the behest of the local landowners, duly arrives with his troops and interviews Winstanley and another prominent member of the Diggers, William Everard.

Everard is astute enough to see that the Diggers are in serious trouble and soon leaves the group.

Fairfax, having concluded that they are doing no harm, advises the local landowners to use the courts.
