May 2. Berwick.	73. Henry Marquis of Dorset to Sec. Wm. Cecil. Thanks for your furtherance of my suits to Council, to whom I have written for money to relieve the poor garrisons here on their lamentable complaints. I long to hear from you, as they that inhabit hell would gladly hear how they do that be in heaven. [¾ page.]
May 18. Berwick.	74. Henry Marquis of Dorset to Sec. Wm. Cecil. I have written several letters to Council, but received no answers. I now write concerning the matters in my charge, and for leave to go to Newcastle for a time, where I hope to have my health better. Pray further my request. I want money, for the soldiers of Berwick garrison are in great want of money. Pray be a means that the Lords may consider their poor estate and long bearing. [¾ page.]
