|
The King has granted an abolition of the arrest [judgment]
given against those who were the chief authors of the late
sedition at Rouen, who at their return were received with
procession and bonfires. The King lately said that if the
Duke of Alva had had to do with an Admiral, neither his
courage nor counsel would have been so worthy of admiration.
It is given out that the Emperor's son has set abroach the
Inquisition in Bohemia. The Admiral understanding that
the Duke of Guise was not satisfied with the arrest given
touching his justification as not guilty of the death of his
father, has desired the King to examine the said Duke what
he has to say to the disannulling of the said justification.
The King has of late ordered the lieutenant to the Duke of
Guise to make delivery of such goods of the Prince of Condé
and M. Dandelot as he possesses. |
