November 1561



[Nov. 18.]	1443. Randolph to Henry Killigrew.
	Wrote from Berwick; and since his return has had little matter. Wots not what trouble this mischievous Mass may turn them unto. It is [rather retained] for despite than devotion; for those who use it care not a straw for it, and jest sometimes merrily against it. Either it will shortly come to [nought] or make us somewhat ado. The Duke [and the Earl] have no will of the Court as long as . . . They lie within 12 miles of it, and purpose to come no nearer except they be sent for. It is purposed to make wars upon the thieves of the borders. The ladies here be merry, louping and dancing, lusty, and fair. Desires to know if Somer remains at home, and that he will write. Received a volume of letters from Throckmorton. Send a Scotch whinger and a pair of knives. Knows not whether his letters came to hand. Sends commendations to F. Wals[ingham] and his cousin Mrs. Sandes.—Edinburgh, 18. . . . Signed. Orig. Hol. Injured by damp. Add.: To Henry Killigrew, at his house in Paul's Church Yard, next door to the Dean of Paul's. "Deliver herewith a dagger and a pair of knives." Pp. 2.
Nov. 27.	1444. Cuerton to Challoner.
	Ten days past received his letter by Thomas Shipman and others of his servants who are here, who arrived at Portugalette in a Newcastle ship; from which the writer has received all things according to the bill of lading, saving one coffer of books, which the ministers of the Inquisition have taken to see whether they can be allowed in this realm. Challoner is coming into a country of small pleasure for such as have not been used to it.—Bilboa, 27 Nov. 1561. Signed.
	Orig. Hol. Add. Endd. by Challoner: 27 Nov. 1562 [sic]. Pp. 2.
