February 1562



Feb. 5.	1450. Thomas Shipman to Challoner.
	This day all his stuff arrived in safety at Portugalette. Has taken the two little chests out of the great chest secretly and delivered them to Cuerton. Moffett has delivered the keys to him, but the Inquisitor of Portugalette will not suffer them to bring the chests into Bilboa until he hears from the Court.—Bilboa, 5 Feb. 1562. Signed: Thomas Shipman, the younger. Orig., with seal. Add. Endd. by Challoner: From Shipman, my servant. Pp. 2.
Feb. 7.	1451. The Cardinal of Ferrara to the Queen.
	Is grateful for the courtesy with which she received his letter sent by M. De Morette and for her acceptance of the professions of devotion offered by him in his own name and in that of his house. Repeats the offers of his service.— St. Germain, 7 Feb. 1562. Signed. Orig. Hol., with seal. Add. Endd. bg Cecil: 7 Feb 1561. Ital. Pp. 3.
Feb. 25.	1452. Hugh Tipton to Challoner.
	1. Perceives that he will travail in the case of Anthony Hickman and Edward Castelyn; it was a cruel sentence for writing two or three lines in his books in his own language.
	2. Concerning "the guardamessillas;" the red will cost 2 reals every piece, and the gilt pillars with the borderings will cost 2½ reals every piece, being of good skins. Asks him to send his arms, and in what breadth and length he will have them set. Sends by this courier a barrel of salmon and one of red herrings to Challoner, and the same to the Countess of Feria. He will allow him for the carriage 10 reals of plate.—Seville, 24 Feb. 1562.
	3. P. S.—Feb. 25th. The bearer, Humphrey Rickthorne, goes by land into England. Chamberlain wrote that he had spoken to Challoner concerning a schedule for the recovering of certain goods of merchants of Bristol, which were apprehended in the power of John Frampton when he was taken prisoner. Sends Chamberlain their privilege of St. George, and trusts that he has taken order to have it confirmed by the King. Signed. Orig. Add. Endd. by Challoner. Pp. 2.
