Summary

Salutem in Christo.

My very good Lord

Your Letters came not to my hands till Tuesday night last, soe that it was impossible for me to give your Lordship answere by that Poast as you desired. Besides his Majesty before I receyved them, had both notice of the avoydance of the Livinge, and bestowed the same upon one of the Poore Scotchmen. But upon my humble request his Majesty is pleased you shall have it for your Chaplaine, yet upon this condition, that you faile not soe soone as may be to accommodate one of these Scotchmen, with some other Livinge in lieu thereof. I would have sent my warrant into the Signett office for drawing up of this Presentation, but that neyther in your Letters to my selfe or my Secretary is any mention of your Chaplens name, which I pray faile not to lett me knowe as soone as you please.

His Majesty upon Thursday last is gone once more towards the North, upon Advertisement given, that the Scotts for certaine ar broke into England with an Army of 20000 men. I pray God bless his Majesty, and that he may be able to prevent theyr Designes, which certainly intend noe good to Church or State. Soe in hast I leave your Lordship to God Almightyes protection, and rest

Your Lordships very lovinge Freind and Brother.
