Description (What the record is about)
-
Part 1, Folios 172-173. Letter dated at London from the Duke of York to the Prince of Orange. Before receiving the Prince's letter the Duke had already heard of the capture of the Prince de Montesarchio by the French near Toulon. The Duke gives the news that 'Algernon Sidney is to be beheaded on Friday next on Tower Hill, which besides the doing justice on so ill a man, will give the lie to the Whigs who reported he was not to suffer. The Duke of Monmouth also' the Duke is 'told will some way or other give them the lie, by owning in a more public way than he has done yet, his knowledge of the conspiracy, which that rebellious party, and some of his dependers, endeavoured to persuade the world he knew nothing of'.
