Miscellaneous 1584

The following letters, formerly included in S.P. France, Vols. XII–XIV, were, in the year 1866, removed and placed with the Addenda, Domestic, of the reign of Elizabeth. They are calendared in the volume of Addenda for 1580–1625.
A. D. 1584.
Oct. 12.		 Thomas, Lord Paget to the Council.
On his arrival in Paris, he wrote to the Lord Treasurer and Mr. Secretary declaring the reason of his coming into these parts, protesting his duty to her Majesty, and praying them to be suitors to her to pardon him for departing the realm without her privity. Has received no answer, but perceives, by the proceedings against him, that his doings have been taken in the worst sense. Beseeches their lordships to obtain his pardon and permission for him to enjoy his living, which is not much, in Paris. Has so carried himself that save for matters of conscience (the principal cause of his going away) he cannot be touched.—Paris, 12 October, 1584.
Holograph. Add. Endd. 1 p. [S.P. Dom. Eliz. Addenda, XXVIII. 97.]
Oct. 13. Thomas, Lord Paget to Stafford .
Has written to the Council to the same purpose as he did to the Lord Treasurer and Secretary when he came away. Thought it his part to do this, and for the rest “let God work,” who he is sure will not forsake him. Has enclosed the letter in one to his sister Lee, and prays that they may be sent away as soon as possible.—Paris, 13 October, 1584.
Holograph. Add. Endd. ¾ p. [Ibid. XXVIII. 98.]
Dec. 4/14. Elizabeth Lady Morley to Walsingham.
Thanking him for giving her man licence to pass over and return to her.—Beaunes (?) 14 December, 1584.
Add. Endd. “Dec. 4.” ½ p. [Ibid. XXVIII. 105.]
Dec. 24./Jan. 3. William Lewckner to Walsingham.
Copy of his letter of December 18–28 [see p. 193 above].
Postscript, dated 3 January, 1585. Aldred did not depart until yesterday. Calling upon him three days since, I found two Jesuits with him. I think one of them is the gentleman who is to come with Aldred. The night before they left, I promised to go next morning to take my leave, but in the morning early he sent his boy to tell me he was gone. Not giving credit to this, I went to the gate and walked a space out of the town to await their coming, which happened at nine o'clock. I viewed the gentleman with him, and he seemed to be “the very Jesuit.”
I have sent a letter to Mr. Dydsbery at Rye that Aldred was coming with a Jesuit, that he may give intelligence to Mr. Gemer, who keeps the register of men's names to and fro, that they may be conducted to you. And I have given my man instructions to advise Dydsbery of his arrival at and departure from Rouen, so I hope they will not escape.
Add. Endd. 3½pp. [S.P. Dom. Eliz. Addenda XXVIII. 107.]
