Description

Part 2, Folios 124-125. Letter from J Fitzpatrick to the Prince of Orange that he thinks it of great importance not only to the Prince but also the States if Monsieur Dicfelt [Everard van Dyckvelt] might be sent as Ambassador to England in place of Monsieur van Citers [Aernout van Citters]. Fitzpatrick writes that van Dyckvelt's 'great prudence and the zeal that he is believed to have for your Highness and the Princess has got him the universal good opinion of all parties here though differing never so much in their religion, which your Highness will safely find by the freedom with which they have communicated their innermost thoughts, hopes and fears to him, and I am sure will do so still when there is any occasion for it'.
