To Ormond.

Oxford 16. Febr. 1644.

ORMOND,

I should wrong my owne service and this Gen∣tleman Sir Timothy Fetherston, if I did not recommend him and his businesse to you; for the particulars of which I referr you to Digby: And now again ▪ cannot but mention to you the necessity of the hastening of the Irish Peace, for wh•…•…ch I hope you are already furnished by me, with materials sufficient: But in case (against all expectation and reason) Peace cannot be had upon those termes, you must not by any meanes fall to a new rupture with them, but conti∣nue the Cessation (according to a Postscript in a Letter by Jack Barry (a copy of which Dispatch I herewith send you.) So I rest.

Postscript.

In case upon particular mens fancies, the Irish Peace should not be procured, upon powers I have already given you, I have thought good to give you this further Order (which I hope will prove need∣lesse) to seek to renew the Cessation for a year, for which you shall pro∣mise the Irish (if you can have it no cheaper) to joyn with them against the Scots and Inchequin; for I hope by that time my condition may be such, as the Irish may be glad to accept lesse, or I be able to grant more.

A true copy
