226. DAME ELIZABETH STONOR TO SIR WILLIAM STONOR [21 AUGUST, 1478]

We know from No. 217 that Lady Stonor intended to be in London in the latter part of August, 1478, and from No. 225 that she was expected to come to London shortly on 1 August. So that year seems to be certain. The re|ference to Robert Warner also points to 1478, see Nos. 203 and 206. From A.C., xlvi, 213.

Jhesus.

And for Robert Warner, he ys cum to towne: dyverce of yowre servantys and myne have spoken with hym: he seyeth that he can receyve no money as yet, notwithstondyng he yntendyth to speke with me or he departe, and wyll content me yef he may. I pray God that he may so do. Also I pray yow to send me a answere of the mater that I wrote to yow for the Lumbarde. And yef hyt myght plese yow to take the labur to ryde ovyr, then ye may answere to the mater yowre selfe, whyche wyll be to me grete hartes ese and plesure: for I thynke hyt ryght longe syth I speke with yow. Syr, I truste to Jhesu to se yow here yn shorte
