Description (What the record is about)
-
Sent by Mr. Cotton.
You may perceive by the letters to her Majesty and the Lords what has been concluded here in this last assembly. I have caused a schedule to be added of the numbers now discharged. "My hope is that as much of those letters as concerneth the lack of treasure, munition, and victuals shall be so furthered by my Lord Treasurer (Lord Burleigh) and by you, as the service here shall receive no detriment.
The Earl of Ormond is returned back to his charge, and will lose no advantage against the enemy. I cannot carry the rest of the forces into the field till I be supplied with money and victual, but I purpose to repair to Waterford, there to expect your resolutions, having the soldiers in readiness to march towards me. I desire to be removed speedily from the government.
Dublin, 6 January 1579. Signed.
Postscript.--I should be left at liberty to reward men of credit and reputation [with knighthood].
