  TITL The Reckoning AUTH Sharon Kay Penman PUBL Ballantine Books, New York, 1991       Book PA GE p 412 REF: "Falls the Shadow" Sharon Kay Penman: April 5 1264 Bran de Montfort leads defen se of St. Andrew's Priory within the town & fights with suicidal bravery.  The walls had bee n undermined by the Prior who was secretly in league with Prince Edward, & Bran was capture d by some common soldiers.  At that point William de Lusignan & Ralph de Mortimer rode up.  B ran had just before taken part in the looting of de Mortimer's lands in Radnorshire.  de Lusi gnan ordered his nephew Bran killed on the spot, but Dafydd ap Gruffydd rode up & intervene d telling them Edward would be displeased to see his cousin Bran killed.  de Lusignan attempt s to argue but Philip Basset (who commanded the attackers) then rode up & commanded Bran be t aken to Edward, and not to be escorted by de Lusignan or de Mortimer, as they would arrange a n "accident"  for Bran.  Bran was congratulated for his gallant bravery by Edward & then sen t to King Henry who moved him to Windsor Castle.  In November 1264, the Marchers Roger de Mor timer & Roger de Clifford rebelled again (had done so in July 1264).  Again Llywelyn ap Gruff ydd allied with Simon de Montfort & the rebels surrendered at Worcester Dec 12 1264.  Mortime r & Clifford were exiled to Ireland for a year. At the Battle of Evesham (Aug 4 1265) de Mort imer helped to trap Montfort by converging with Prince Edward upon Montfort's vastly outnumbe red force.  Before the battle began, several thousand Welsh troops loaned to Montfort by hi s ally Llywelyn ap Gruffydd deserted Montfort; de Mortimer & his men methodically hunted the m down throughout the surrounding countryside & cold bloodedly murdered almost all of them. M ortimer sent Montfort's head back to Wigmore Castle to his wife as a gift. REF: Sharon Kay Pe nman "The Reckoning" :  King Edward launched his war on Llywelyn ap Gruffydd the Last Princ e of Wales on 12 Nov 1276.  He did not personally take part in the campaign until the followi ng summer, but de Mortimer scored a mjaor success in the early phases of the war, who in Apri l 1277 siezed Llywelyn's castle at Dolforwyn & restored Gruffydd ap Gwenwynwyn to power in Po wys (ap Gwenwynwyn had sconspired with Llywelyn's brother Dafydd to murder Llywelyn and upo n discovery had fleed to England).  Mortimer ultimately made an alliance with Llywelyn ap Gru ffydd against   Gruffydd ap Gwenwynwyn.  When Llywelyn was goaded by his feckless brother Daf ydd into Wales' last fatal war with England & Edward "Longshanks"  on Palm Sunday 1282, Roge r de Clifford was made Edward's warlord for mid-Wales, one of three Welsh commands; however , he died before the war could successfully be prosecuted.
