This gentleman, Mr. Bennet Wyllson, a
man well known to me, and well able to live, coming towards
me yesterday at Wynselowe 5 miles short of my house, one
Thomas Allyne told him sundry bad and untrue reports, as
he heard, both of her sacred Majesty, and other, and for that
these strange accidents have set the minds and tongues too
much at liberty of many, sundry being very quick of belief
upon such rumours, I have entreated him to wait upon you
himself, that you may the better know the speeches and persons,
and further determine at your pleasure. If I hear not from
you the sooner, I will cause these persons to be examined myself,
being now ready to repair to the Court.—From Quaryngton,
