... that during the Battle of Bovey Heath, Royalist officers escaped by "throwing their stakes of money", which the enemy soldiers paused to collect? Source: "officers ... only escaped by throwing their stakes of money out of window among the Round Heads; which whilst our soldiers ... were scrambling for, the escaped out at a back door". (Besley, Henry (1846). The Route Book of Devon: A Guide for the stranger and tourist. p. 257.)
