LETTER C. To the Duke of Halwin.

SIR,

BEing inform'd of a flying Report in your Govern∣ment, that there is a design to transport Corn from thence, by vertue of a Pass-port which one of my Rela∣tions has obtain'd, I purposely writ this Letter, to beg the favour of you, that in case any Person comes upon such an Errand, under pretence of a Pass-port, to hinder it from having any effect. You may very well imagine, that I am so far from consenting to have the Province robb'd of what is necessary for its Subsistence, that on the other hand, I wou'd contribute all that lies in my power to procure an abundance of all things there. I will not enlarge my self longer to convince you of this truth, being content to assure you at present, that I am, and ever will be,

Sir,

Your, &c.

Paris, Sept. 8, 1637.
