Christopher Monck, Duke of Albemarle, letter to William Blathwayt, 1688 June 6

[Page 1]

I thinke I need not Informe you of any thing
that happens here, becaue you have the know
ledge of what I write from time to time to
the Lords of the Committee, but I thinke it not
unnecessary to put in minde againe that
if Mr. Byndlos does acquaint you with any business
of mine or that it comes any other way to your
knowledge, I desire you will give your best Assist=
tance to it, which I shall take kindly from you when
ever it Shall happen, I have sent you Inclosed
a Proclamacion which I caused to be Issued forth
for the better Securing of the Wreck and I have
sent you likewise the Case of Smith Kelly late
Provost Marshall, and of Seigniour St. Iago des
Castillo Stated, which I desire you will give notice
of to the Lords of the Committee. I have sent you noe
Minutes now only Duplicates of some formerly
sent, little business having past in the Councill
since the Last Ships Sailed, I shall be glad to heare
from you, and am

Mr Blaithwaite
