Title
PELHAM to SECRETARY WALSINGHAM.
Date
6 Jan 1580
Description

Sent by Mr. Cotton.

The 3rd of this month I received a letter from you, dated the last of December. When you declared your opinion of my continuance here and your own disgrace, I found it a double grief. I pray you to work my discharge as soon as is possible, and if her Majesty's displeasure be so deeply conceived towards me, I wish myself in Germany with my boy. I think Mr. Waterhowse happy, for he has wound himself out of the affairs. "And neither he, neither the Treasurer (Wallop), Sir Nicholas Malbie, [n]or myself would willingly be dealers, when you may not have the defence of our honest services.

Dublin, 6 January 1579. Signed.
