File Clenennau letters and papers 429 [RESTRICTED ACCESS] - Gelly Meurick to William Maurice,

Has received William Maurice's letters bearing date the 13th Nov. wherein is expressed great good will towards his Lordship [Earl of Essex] whereof he has in a sort been acquainted. Now William Maurice can at present put the same in practice. His Lordship is very anxious to do something for the writer's cousin Peter. He has written to William Maurice on the matter. His Lordship will require what William Maurice does for the writer's cousin at His Honour's request. His Lordship has also procured his cousin, the Earl of Pembroke, to write to William Maurice. When heretofore writing alone in the same manner to Mr Gwyn, he was neglected. He has no doubt that William Maurice will accomplish his Lordship's request that Peter be appointed under-sheriff in the county. Knows that it is not so great a matter that it needs all this suit, but the occasion is such that it is referred to the bearer.
