Sept. 18. Petworth.	G. Garrard to [Lord Conway]. Sir Henry Vane has as good as lost his eldest son, who is gone to New England for conscience sake; he likes not the discipline of the Church of England, none of our ministers will give him the sacrament standing, and no persuasions of the Bishops nor authority of his parents will prevail with him; "let him go." [Extract. DOMESTIC Corresp. Car. I.]
Sept. 26. Dartmouth.	Wil. Gourney, Mayor of Dartmouth, to the Privy Council. Two ships from Newfoundland, with about 60 seamen of the town, taken by Turkish pirates within three leagues of the Lizard. One of the vessels rescued by a Dutch man-of-war, and taken to Holland; the other burnt by the Turks. Many Turkish men-of-war to the westward of Scilly; great fears for the Newfoundland ships, unless the mischief likely to ensue is timely prevented. [DOMESTIC Corresp. Car. I.]
[Sept.]	Minutes of letters to John White of Dorchester, with abstracts of their contents. The letters from Governor John Winthrop of 4 July 1632 [see ante, p. 154, No. 63], are included in this list. [DOMESTIC Corresp. Car. I.]
