Richard overnight goes from tryin g t o mediate a solution to, like Edward, ardently desiring a battlefield confrontation. April 5 1264 Bran de Montfort leads defense of St. Andrew's Priory within the town & fight s w ith suicidal bravery. The walls had been undermined by the Prior who was secretly in lea gu e with Prince Edward, & Bran was captured by some common soldiers. Atthat point Willia m d e Lusignan & Ralph de Mortimer rode up. Bran had just before taken part in the looting o f d e Mortimer's lands in Radnorshire. de Lusignan ordered his nephew Bran killed on the spo t, b ut Dafydd ap Gruffydd rode up & intervened telling them Edward would be displeased to se e hi s cousin Bran killed. de Lusignan attempts to argue but Philip Basset (who commanded th e att ackers) then rode up & commanded Bran be taken to Edward, and not to be escorted by d e Lusign an or de Mortimer, as they would arrange an "accident" for Bran. Bran congratulate d for hi s gallant bravery by Edward & then sent to King Henry who moves him to Windsor Castl e. Abando ned nephew Prince Edward at Battle of Lewes (14 May 1264) when Edward returned fro m his savag e pusuit of the Londoner contingent of the rebel forces back to the battle to se e Henry III ( de Lusignan's 1/2 brother) under seige at Lewes priory & the victory to Montfor t (de Lusignan 's 1/2 brother in law).
