There landed in this instant here a boat from
Calais with some servants of the Marshal, who say he has been at
Calais 7 days, and is ready to put to sea with the first opportunity of
wind, so that we hope to see him here tomorrow. On his landing I will
advise you of the journeys he intends to make towards London, to the
end my Lord of Pembroke may know when to meet him at Gravesend.

| Sir Christopher Parkins to the Earl of Salisbury | |
| 1610–11, January 16. |
Having in my old age got a poor cottage for my
last worldly rest, it has been desired of me in your name that I should
yield some part thereof, if any might be spared, for the enlargement of
the next house appertaining to the Countess of Derby. Afterwards one
came from you to view, and seeing the rooms strait and small, thought
nothing superfluous. By him I returned this humble petition that I
might with your favour enjoy my poor house, but should be ever at
your commandment, wherewith I was informed your Honour rested
satisfied. But since I have been much urged to take a hundred pounds
and be gone to seek elsewhere, yet this not in your name. Lastly it has
been desired of me by letters in your name to write my resolution to the
Countess, which I readily did, signifying for very manifest reasons of
bonds to be taken in and such like, that much more lay upon it than to
take 100l and be gone; and also that being now feebled I was unwilling
to seek further, wherefore I prayed her that I might have her favour to
be as I was. Whereunto, I am informed, her Honour answered she
would leave to urge hereafter by herself or others. Channon Row,
16 January 1610. Signed Seal, broken 1 p. (128 100) |

| Maurice Kyffin to the Earl of Salisbury | |
| [1610–11, January] |
I have lately married a widow, a gentlewoman,
well descended, her father as yet not acquainted of the matter. I doubt
that he will be highly displeased with his daughter for marriage without
his consent, and that, I fear, will turn to her great sorrow and grief,
being a sickly body. Therefore I beseech you speak with him in my
behalf, that I may have his good will, which is all I desire of him. He
is now in London and will not stay here long. He is no recusant. I will
attend your Honour to inform you of his name. Undated Holograph Seal Endorsed: "January 1610." ½ p. (128 102) |
