Intends to enclose Sir Henry Lee's ground at Candlemas and wishes to know Wyllyam Mauryce's plans for his part of the enclosure which is thirty roods. Is driven by his folly in choosing a part of sandy ground to enclose the same with rails upon great charge, wherefore begs for Wyllyam Mauryce's advice because thirty roods is the whole sandy ground and Twenty thereof are to be fenced by Anthony Trappes and the other ten between Wyllyam Mauryce and Anthony Trappes as part of the sixty roods between them. Postscript: Promise to repay shortly part of his old debt. Further postscript: Request to be good to 'this pore man', whom if Anthony Trappes should 'enterteyne in his facultye', he will not regret when Anthony Trappes & Wyllyam Mauryce meet.

Thanks for the kindness & good wishes in his suit, which is adjourned until the next term and will be the first cause on the first day of the Court of the Exchequer Chamber. Will inform William Maurice, as one of his best friends, of the outcome. Will accede to any reasonable request of William Maurice's with regard to the waste grounds at Llangollen, as soon as he has settled some matters in which he is in controversy there.

Because of William Maurice's continued friendship to him from the beginning of John St John's troublesome suit is encouraged to hope for William Maurice's further kindness to bring the cause to some conclusion. The cause is referred to a trial at the Exchequer Bar, and for proceeding therein has sent bearers to the country to make entries and perform other matters as instructed, which requires advice and assistance in the knowledge of the grounds and in other respects. Asks William Maurice, as the one whom he trusts most, to assist the bearers to perform their tasks with secrecy and speed, since the matter must be completed upon a certain day and time in order to coincide with other business of John St John in London. Wishes to be kept informed of the proceedings. Request for William Maurice's assistance in this matter, for which John St John will be thankful and show his gratitude. Endorsed: Notes in the hand of William Morris, some referring to the following properties: y wern ucha, bronn y kesel, Brynn y rhose, y geufronn, doleriridd, rhysva y ddeufaen and vronn ythinog.

By appointment of his brother, and by order of William Morrice's letter to the latter, sends eight yards of 'mallerd color' cloth at 12s., a total of £4.16.0 Makes nothing from it, but gives William Morrice the buying and himself now pays ready money for it, as the bearer can testify. It is excellent cloth; Rowland Langley expects payment at Michaelmas. If William Morrice sends for any more cloth, will do his best to oblige him.

The Queen's forces in Ireland need to be strengthened. Not wishing to burden her subjects with the levying of greater numbers than can easily be spared, has set small numbers of foot to be levied in several counties, to be sent to Ireland as specified in a letter of the Privy Council [No. 77]. Request to have levied the numbers specified therein, and to see them equipped with coats, armour and weapons and taken to the coast to be transported to Ireland. The present letter is his authority. Endorsed: Note of examination by J. Winniford and John Wynn.

The recipients are authorised by statute to collect money within the county at a certain rate from every parish to be distributed to those of the Queen's subjects injured in war. In various counties where collections have been made, few or none have been sent to benefit therefrom, the money lies unused in the treasurers' hands. In many counties where soldiers were pressed or volunteered and are to be relieved, the collections are not sufficient reasonably to maintain the number of injured daily sent to them. These men therefore, according to the statute, should be helped with the surplus of money collected in other counties. Many, unable to find relief, where it should be given to them, wander and beg, against the law and the will of Queen and Parliament. Request that the justices of the peace and treasurers of Caernarfonshire certify the Council of the sums of money collected in the county under the statute since it was first put into execution, stating the number of parishes that contributed and the amounts each sent; also, if they were insufficient to relieve those sent to the county, how many were turned away and what signification was made of the reasons for not providing relief. Enquire re the last point since many injured soldiers sent with proper warrants according to the statute returned complaining that no attention was paid to them and that they were refused allowances and signification of the reasons for rejection; this must be changed. Copy.

[Henry Herbert, Earl of] Pembroke, Wilton, to his friends the deputy lieutenants, [Robert Wynn], sheriff and justices of the peace in Caernarfonshire. Refers to the orders contained in Nos 77-9. Encloses a copy of other letters of the Queen directing more men to be made ready in the county to replace those already sent if necessary. Request to fulfil the orders with all speed and diligence. Encloses also No. 81, with a similar request for execution. Includes a list of men already sent and now to be made ready [as follows]:. 'Carnarvon. Sent to Chester - 30, to be now put in readiness - 46. In all - 76.'.

Mr Bentley, 'my very frend', has come to Gwydir, offering, on behalf of Mr Gravenor, mentioned in the letters of the Privy Council [No. 86], to supply defects in armour at a fair rate, which he will send to William Maurice. William Maurice should think the gentleman worthy of attention if only bearing in mind the Council's letters, but apart from that John Wynn personally requests William Maurice to help Mr Bentley to sell as much armour as possible, & will be indebted if William Maurice does so. The hundreds of Llyn are scantily equipped with armour and shot; if William Maurice will inform Mr Bentley of the quantity required, it will be delivered to Caernarvon. John Wynn, had he not already seen to the county's needs, would have bought a store of muskets and calivers, but has indeed ordered 40 for training days. Mr Bentley writes to William Maurice; let William Maurice answer courteously and quickly. Postscript: The bearer is to return to Mr Bentley in Beaumaris with William Maurice's answer.

Has sent by William Morris's servant Huge ap Richard William Morris's hat and stockings, and a note of everything delivered to the tailor for William Morris. Request for payment by Candlemas, when John Langley must pay £300; counts on money from William Morris. William Morris shall receive his things from the tailor with a note thereof, including the 'demand for workmanship'. Request to pay the tailor since 'this yeare goeth very harrd with atificers'. The sleeve was not ready, but hopefully will be so in time; John Langley has called for it as if were his own.

Heard today from his cousin William Morice ap Hughe, who had it from Hugh Lloyd of Diserth, son in law of 'owre cosin of Madryn' and recently arrived from Madryn that a ship lay at Penryn Ddu for some days without trying to land, but sent out her 'coke' boat to sound, as was thought, every part of the road and coast there. If this is so, John Wynn and William Morise should immediately inform the Privy Council. If any suspicious accident happened in the county and the Council heard of it from elsewhere, John Wynn and William Morise would rightly be discredited. They must not report a 'flim flam tale' of hearsay; William Morise should enquire concerning the matter of the most trustworthy people on the coast and [if he finds it at all true,] the Council should be informed as soon as possible, and John Wynn will join in doing so. The Council should, because of this, have greater regard for the county and spare it from providing men for foreign service, which would be a great relief. Postscript: Asks for notice by the bearer, and certainty as soon as possible.

Covering letter with letters of the Queen and No. 99, requiring 46 footmen to be levied in Caernarfonshire for immediate departure for Chester and service in Ireland. Request for performance of the orders contained therein. Subscribed: 'Carnarvon - sent. 30. - to be sent. 46'; and note of examination by John Wynn of Gwydir.
