The place from whence hee derives his tide was the gift of one of my auncestors, and so I have recovered it, but with a purpose to restore it, and the rather if, as hee says hee will, he lets mee have the breedeing of his sonne, a youth of about 13 years old, as I take it. The reason why I tell you this is because, if I take him, I would have your assistance to place him where hee may bee bred a Protestant." is'c. {Hist. MSS. Com., nth Report, App., vol. v, p. 14).
