Part of the reason for this failure to effectively follow up the victory was undoubtedly down to the fact that the rebel forces lacked military discipline , but also that the victorious rebels took advantage of their new power to settle old scores by hunting down and taking revenge upon local enemies . For example , on 7 June , Perry led a raid upon Carnew , scene of the Carnew executions of rebel suspects on 25 May , burning most of the town to the ground . He was also suspected of involvement in the execution of two of his yeomen torturers at the Gorey camp on 8 June
