The men referred to in this letter had been sentenced to two years' reclusion and to remain ten years in Spain. After receiving eight months' instruction they presented a petition to be allowed to return to England. In forwarding the petition from the English College at Valladolid, Father Joseph Cresswell states that he has heard from Father Richard Walpole, “brother of the martyr,” that the men are honestly converted. Father Cresswell adds that they may be of use in England if a fleet is sent there. It will be noted that Squire was executed in England in 1598 for an alleged attempt to poison the Queen, in which he tried to implicate Father Walpole.
