...Essex now fixes his sights on Cahir Castle, the strongest fortress in Ireland.
He has accused Lord Cahir, whose brother has custody of the castle, of collusion with the White Knight.
Upon the failure of a parley for the surrender of the castle, the English take forceful action: after a cannonade that lasts for two days, the curtain wall is breached and the garrison flees.
Essex enters the castle on the 29th of May.
