Oct. 17. 1,220. Sir Robert Southwell to William Blathwayt. The poor Protestants of Ireland, merchants and others of Cork, Kingsale and thereabouts, now at Bristol, are much rejoiced at the permission given for their return. But Mr. William Hovel, of Cork, is much aggrieved by the order that all ships going directly for Ireland shall give bond to return directly for England, for one of his own ships will thus be detained in England, whereas she belongs to Cork. He therefore begs that his ship may be allowed to go free. Pray lay the case before the Lords of Trade. Signed, Robert Southwell. Holograph. 1 p. [Colonial Papers, Vol. LXVI., No. 21.]
Oct. 23. 1,221. Edward Southwell to William Blathwayt. There are two more cases like Mr. Hovell's of which my father wrote to you (See preceding abstract), whose Protestant owners desire the same favour. My father hopes they will be gratified, for he would then cause one of them to load coal at Swansea and sail direct to Kingsale, for he fears that the many soldiers in the town will, when the winter comes, pull down one house to warm another.
