Tenth of June FRANCIS VANDER BURGH Archbishop of Cambrey By the command of the most Illustrious and Reverend Lord the Lord Archbishop and Duke of Cambrey aforesaid Foulin Secretary This Figure of a Crosse ✚ was on the top of the Letter Very much respected Sir SEEing that I was to write unto you obout the businesse contained in the inclosed Commission I was also commanded by my Master who is altogether unknown unto you to let you understand that the Bearer who is the Foreman of his shop is sent to the party with Letters from Mr. Iozelin the which he is to impart unto you and with Letters from himselfe to the Parents of some young men who are Prentises here expecting to heare their resolutions before they can become Free men I hope that you will find him to be a fit man for both imployments if you would be pleased to assist him with the best advice whiles he is a stranger amongst you peradventure you will startle at the sight of the inclosed Commission considering how the times go now in those parts and to how little purpose it is to medle in affairs of that nature But if you please to know the true reasons and motives why I sent it now I doubt not but that you will rest satisfied The first is because I had now an extraordinary good opportunity to send it safely by a known friend who would have a special care to see it conveighed unto you with those small directions it hath which none could make any use of in case it should fall into their hands but only the Bearer and if I should not have sent it now by him the directions must have beene such as might have brought you into some question if my Letters had been intercepted The second and principall reason is because the Pope is old and sickly and so is the Archbishop of Cambrey and if either of them dye before the mattet be begun by one or other the grace would be of no force and if any of the three named in it do but call any one Catholike man and take such information as hee can give of the martyrdome of Father Ambrose and record them before witnesse the grace will be of such force that wee may make use of it any time these thirty or forty years following when the said parties are dead Therefore I beseech you excuse me for having sent it unto you and for Gods sake commend it presently to some of the parties named in it or to be named by them to see the matter begun as I have said and then to be kept in great secrecy till we see better times Thus in haste I bid you fare-well August 17. 1643.

places in each County and such as are persoually best known I beleive to your Lordship for the most part of them As I wrote last weeke that Mr. Fittons repaire to England would not be necessary though he be chosen Coadjutor to Mr. Webster cum jure missionis so I write againe now upon better grounds for God be thanked Mr. Webster mends in his health but admit he should fall back and dy yet even in that case perhaps Mr. Fitton would most probably get our Chapter confirmed in his person of Deane and this not onely through his being knowne and liked well of in Rome but farther through his perticular relation with Lord _____ who perhaps would conduce much towards confirming our Chapter and Mr. Fittons person and the Confirmation of our Chap being the main thing we ayme at moves many to thinke that we were better choose Mr. Fitton Coadjutor then a stronger man because if in his person we get the Chapter confirmed we can easily choose a Coadjutor to him in case he should not grow strong And so by this means we effect our greatest affaire and desire The rest is that I am my Lord Your most humble servant F H Mr. Herbert upon sight of these last Letters from being moved by Mr. Webster to accept of the place makes answer that if Mr. Fitton cannot supply the place rather then give offence unto his Brethren he is content to conforme to the Votes of his Brethren A Letter from the Earl of Warwick and some Members of the house of COMMONS To the Honorable William Lenthall Esquire Speaker of the said House SIR VVE have thought fit to acquaint you with some Informations that we have lately received concerning the affairs of Ireland such as we suppose you will think fit to be imparted to the House The Inhabitants of the Lath of Saint Augustine in the county of Kent out of their charitable commiseration of the miseries of the Protestants in Ireland being inabled thereunto by an Ordinance of Parliament did in a very large manner contribute and gather Five hundred quartets of Wheat and other Grain and accordingly sent it over to Cork imbarqued in a Vessell called the Prosperous of Sandwich whereof one Thomas Basset was Master who accordingly carried the same unto Cork and delivered it unto the hands of the Lord Inchequine according to an Order of the Committee for Irish affairs Now the said Vessell being returned the Master thereof makes this report which we with all care and diligence have sent up 1. First That the Lord Inchequine was so far from distributing the said Grain according to the intention of the Parliament and the Doners who did intend it as a free Gift for the relief of the poor Protestants in Ireland that he did seize it and sell it at a very dear rate to any that would buy it detaining it from those to whom it was given 2. That he did not onely deprive them of the intended Charity but also opprest them with Billetting of two Regiments of Souldiers that are since sent over whereof the said Mr. Basset was an eye-witnesse under the command of Sir Charles Vavasour and Sir John Pawlet to the Port of Bristoll to serve here against the Parliament 3. That the Lord Inchequine did presse the said Master Thomas Basset to carry over more Souldiers to the Port of Bristoll which Basset did colourably undertake and attended severall dayes to receive the Souldiers aboard of him till such time as he met with a convenient opportunity to make his escape which he desired and now at last obtained 4. The said Thomas Basset doth report upon very good grounds That there are further intentions of raising great Forces of the Irish Rebells to come over to serve against the Parliament and that for present there are ready two Regiments under the command of Sir Hardes Waller and four Regiments of the Lord Inchequines and six Troops of Horse under the command of the Earl of Cork all which are to be listed under the Duke of York to maintain this unnaturall War against the Parliament and Kingdom Now that it may appear that this Information of Thomas Basset is not conjecturall he is ready to testific all this upon Oath And for present we have here sent up divers Instruments tending to this effect subscribed by the Lord Inchiquine and delivered to the said Thomas Basset By all this you may perceive what a Designe there is to bring over both Horse and Foot of the Irish to war here against the Parliament which might in some sort have been prevented if the winter guard had been timely set forth which we desire you with all possible speed to hasten the winter guard as hoping it may be a means to prevent and intercept a great many of the Irish Rebells which daily are in readinesse to come over And so with our best respects remembred unto you praying God to give a blessing to all your proceedings We bid you heartily farewell and rest Downs the 7th Novemb. 1643.
