Summary

Salutem in Christo.

My very good Lord

I thanke you for your Letters, and the enclosed. They came to me whyle the King was att Hampton Court, and the busynesse, requiring hast, the King dispatcht away a Messenger, and his Letters presently: so whatever his answere is, I have noe hand att all in it. The enclosed concerning the Lord Balmerinoch, I can noe way approve, for in the Forme you send, it doth as good as proclaime to the world, that he did not dislike the Libell, in, or for itselfe, but only as it was declared. And that amongst intelligent men, must needs be doubtfull, wheather in his heart he did not more dislike the Declaration, then the Petition.

Concerning that of the Gourdons and the High-Landers; I thinke you will have noe cause to doubt his Maiesties constancie; and therfore I shall hope to heare that well settled.

I knowe not what consent his Majestie had given to the Earle of Antrime about the Lordship of Kyntyr, but I am sure he will give noe consent nowe. For it seemes your Lordship had written as much to his Majestie upon this argument, as you did to me, and the King is resolved to followe your advice, and looke to his owne Title. And soe much I thinke, he hath been pleased to signify to you already; soe that I have nothing to doe in these my Letters, but to signify to you what is already done. Save only to give you thankes, for the care you have taken to fitt the Bishop, and Deane of Edenburrowe with theire Houses, and their præcincts to them; as alsoe for your love to me. And therfore without creating any farther trouble to you, I leave you to the Grace of God, and rest,

Your Lordships very Lovinge Freinde to serve you.

W: Cant:

Lambeth. March. 14. 1634.

To the Right Honorable my very good Lord the Earle of Traquare att Edenburrowe in Scotland. These
