June 1542

June 17. Senato Terra, v. xxxii. p. 40. 283. Motion made in the Senate concerning the Venetian Secretary in England.
By many letters from their most faithful secretary, Hieronimo Zuccato, who has resided in England during the last 12 years, the Senate is informed of the exorbitant costs which it behoves him to incur, by reason of the great scarcity over there, and for the honour and dignity of the Signory; wherefore as it is fitting to grant his just demand;
It will be put to the ballot, that to the monthly salary of 60 golden ducats received by said secretary, there be added ten golden ducats per month for his said expenses, so long as he shall remain in the Signory's service there.
Ayes, 144. Noes, 27. Neutrals, 6.
