Description (What the record is about)
-
By your letter of the 2nd I perceive you have entered upon your journey without Captain Mackworth or Captain Hollingworth. I cannot but much marvel how so much time is detracted in their march. There is not in all Ireland so many cannon shot to maintain your necessary battery as you desire, or they should have been sent to you at once, with Easton, the engineer. These wants shall be shortly supplied out of England, at the arrival of my brother Spencer. [James Spencer? See 9 and 14 July 1580. It has been supposed that this was Edmund Spenser, the poet.]
Trim, 6 December 1579. Signed.
