206. The Privy Council to Paget.
The King has received his of the 25th. As the Admiral has shown himself very toward, and a special and secret worker in the matters now in communication, the King thinks well to "taste him" with "a second assay," before the arrival of the gentleman Paget writes of, whose instructions may then, if necessary, be amended. Paget shall at once repair to the Admiral, and say he has written his conferences, both with the French king and him, to the King, who thanks him for his good will, and, having always reputed him a loyal servant to his master, is glad to see him in that place and authority, trusting that the King his brother's affairs will now be better mayned than they have been; and, because he is a special minister in this matter, would have him know that the French king cannot be better affected than the King is, and therefore, if the gentleman who comes hither shows that this motion proceeds from desire of amity and not of lucre, the King will grant any reasonable demand, but nothing will be won by the use of "piquant and indirect matter." Therefore, if they indeed mind this amity and marriage, let them weigh what reason and friendship may demand; and, in respect of the marriage, ask things meet to be granted, and, for the rest, devise a "reciproque." These things must be weighed in the instructions given to him that is to come hither, and they, offering a reasonable reciproque, may be assured to find the English "more than reasonable."
Praying him to keep this declaration secret, as the King opens to him the bottom of his heart, that he may the rather frame things for the speedy conclusion of these matters.

Has received his letters (fn. 1) by his cousin, the bearer, and seen the instructions, showing what ought to be modified (ce qui se debvoit desduire) in the matter of which he has charge. To declare his intention, sends a little remembrance (memoire) with an extract of the treaties. He shall see if some aid can be obtained for Milan, calling to mind the offer which Norfolk formerly made to Francis at Doullens, but shall not stay upon that. His cousin is fully instructed.

If he cannot get remission of the pension of 50,000 cr. which they pretend to be perpetual, he shall take the acquittance of the two millions and the life pension, of the treaty of 1525, with all the rest of that treaty. In return, lands shall be delivered in this realm of 50,000, or even 100,000 livres of rent, and the dowry of the daughter to be 25,000 or 30,000 livres of rent, but as small as possible, considering that she brings nothing but a simple acquittance of a disputed debt, and the dowry of the queens of France is but 50,000 or 60,000 livres of rent. The lands to be delivered shall be named later. Francis does not wish the daughter legitimated, but only delivered as legitimate. If they will grant nothing for the conquest of Milan, he shall leave that, provided that they remit the whole treaty, of October 1525, for the remainder of the two millions and the life pension, and demand no approbation of the perpetual pension; but, in case they insist on that approval, more ample reasons, together with the copy of the treaties from which they are taken, are sent, showing the said pension to be nowise due; for, above all things, Francis will not have it approved, but, at the worst, let things remain as they are. The lands delivered shall be to Orleans and the lady and their heirs male, and shall be re-purchasable to this Crown for 600,000 cr., or the whole sum acquitted if it cannot be done otherwise. If Orleans or his wife die before the King of England, the life pension of 100,000 cr. shall be paid. The acquittances shall be sent to show how much of the two millions has been paid. Countersigned : Bayard.

210. Deputy And Council Of Calais to Henry VIII.
At the late being here of the Commissioners for reformation of the Marches, divers subjects asked whether they should expel the aliens that had their lands to farm, and were told to await the King's resolution. Now, perceiving divers of their neighbours touched by an old information by Thos. Acourt, laid in the Exchequer here and now commanded to be executed, they have renewed their suit. Many of these strangers have lived long there soberly, have married English subjects, and repute themselves denizens "by reason of the oaths and bills given to them by the late Lord Lisle." Beg him to set order in this. Calais, penult. March 33 Hen. VIII. Signed : H. Mawtravers : Thomas Ponynges : Edward Bray : Edwarde Wotton : G.

211. James V. to Henry VIII.
Certain merchants of Aberdeen complain that, on the 3rd March, their ship, the Martin, upon her voyage to Dieppe in Normandy, was driven upon the shore betwixt Scairburt and Fylabriggis, where she was broken by tempest, and all in her perished except three men. Henry's subjects of the coast there have taken all the fish, cloth and wool and the merchants' money, extending to 600l. Scots, and refuse redress. No reason can be alleged to refuse redress of goods saved, not being wreck, where certain persons are yet alive. Begs him to provide that the goods may be restored. Edinburgh, 30 March, 29 James V.

212. Paget to Henry VIII.
Whereas the French king, at Boy de Vincenne, offered to send greater personages into England to treat the matter now in hand, and, in his last conference with Paget, promised to join with his ambassador there another personage fully instructed, he will not now observe his promise; as appears by the Admiral's letter, enclosed, written in reply to one from Paget asking the name of the personage. "Whereby I perceive that every other king is not (absit adulatio verbis) as your Majesty is, master of his word; whom I have noted so well advised, before you do determine, that your Majesty hath no cause after to change your determination." The French king, Chancellor, Admiral and Marshal Hannyball have done nothing else these two days but consider the treaties with England; and the treasurers have been at Court with accounts of payments and arrears.
Has, upon a letter from the Council, advanced the matter of the men of Newcastle to the Chancellor, who says that, upon written request to the King's Council, order will be taken. Thos. Anderson, who solicits the matter, is therefore decided, by experience of the costs and delays, to give up the matter and return to England; as others have done, wishing that order might be taken that Englishmen's suits here might be passed summarily as Frenchmen's suits mostly are there.
A merchant of Rowen, called John de la Rock, and a Scot of Dieppe, last year, conveyed out of the south of England over 50 horses, and say they have licence for like number for three years to come. Within these three weeks, another Scot shipped 10 geldings at Dover and brought them to Boulogne. He says he has licence to convey over that number as often as he list during the next year. Writes this as he is told that one with horses was lately stayed at Calais, and his horses forfeited.
The Bishop of Rome's ambassador, in a long conference yesterday with the Chancellor, urged peace with the Emperor upon the same terms as Secretary Hardingel did before Christmas, viz., the marriage of the Emperor with the King's daughter, and of Orleans with the Emperor's daughter. The Queen of Hungary has sent the French king, through his Queen, a present of two wild boars. The King thanked the Queen, his wife, saying he knew "he had not had them but for her." The Chancellor of Alenon is coming home out of Almayn. The Queen of Navarre is gone to Orleans to meet her husband.
The bruit is that ambassadors from the Sophy have been with the Emperor. The Emperor's ambassador says it is but a slander of the Frenchmen, and that the truth is, a Venetian and two Persians, who pretended to be all Persians, came lately to the Emperor with a commission under the Sophy's seal, which was found to be counterfeit, and the Emperor dismissed them with a "sharp taunt" and 50 ducats apiece. Thinks Henry will know the truth from his ambassadors there. Paris, 30 March. Signed.

214. The Privy Council to Sir Thos. Cheyney.
Have received his letters dated 28 March, with others from Sandwich, about a wreck on the Sands of Goodwin. Intend to ask the advice of the King's learned Council as to whom the goods saved ought to appertain, and send him word. Desire him to take care that a ship laden with part of the said goods, and coming to London, is so looked after that nothing is diminished, and that the rest is forthcoming; and to take the names of those who sell any part. Send a copy of a letter just received from the French ambassador. Need not instruct him "what reprisalls do importe"; and desire him to see to the "redubbe of this complaint."

215. Deputy And Council Of Ireland to Henry VIII.
Repaired to Limerick, 15 Feb., and there continued Parliament to the 10th (sic) inst., whereunto came Obrien, McWilliam, and other Irish captains. Passed such acts as the King required to be passed, and took "tollerance" with the Obriens, as appears by a schedule enclosed. Explain why they have granted so much to the Obriens, as done in return for the release of lands called Onnaghe and certain "black rent," which the Obriens had on this side the Shenon, which were an excuse for them to waste all the country between Lymerike and Cassell, which is 24 miles or more.
In answer to the King's letter, requiring that such as submit should grant some large rent or subsidy, or else some portion of their lands, explain that the country is so destitute of money, and the people so ignorant, that they would rather provide galloglas that would cost them 40l. or 50l. in victuals than pay 5l. rent, and lands taken of them would cost more than their value to keep. Such as were bound by the late lord Leonard, by indentures, to bear rent and galloglas, say they were compelled to make the indentures, and cannot bear so great a burden. Give particulars of such yearly subsidies as they have obtained promise of, viz., out of the counties of Limerick, 20 mks.; Tipperary, 60 m.; Kilkenny, 40l. Irish; Waterford, 20l. st.; out of Onaughe, 10l. st.; from McWilliam, 10l.; and from McYbrynarie, Tirlogh McYbrien, Okennydie, McEgge, Omulrian, and Odwyre, small rents and promise of galloglas. It is as much as they can bear, and grows partly by the putting of the Obriens over Shenon. The Obriens have the greatest power in the West, and, but for the example of Oneil, Obrien would not have submitted.
Go now to peruse the Kevanaghes, Ochonor, the Omores, and Oraylie. There is lack of a learned man to administer justice about Limerick. Mr. Sentlowe, seneschal of Wexford, is going over to declare himself of certain malicious indictments of murder and felony, for which he has stood to his trial here and been honestly acquitted.

217. Mary Of Hungary to Chapuys.
Has just received letters from the Emperor, with two for Chapuys, which she encloses. Sends full powers accordingly (pending the arrival of powers from the Emperor, which are on their way by Italy) to negociate with the King's ministers for an alliance; which powers he may exhibit when he thinks convenient, but not give a copy of them without orders from the Emperor. Sends credentials instead of instructions, for she could not give fuller ones than those in the Emperor's second letter to him (No. 171), and he may assure the King of her continual desire to promote a friendship which has been much more constant than that of some of England's neighbours, and which is now more necessary than ever when Christendom is so disturbed. If the King of England complain of the recent restrictions of trade with the Low Countries (from which, however, the Flemings suffer more than the English), he may say that she proposes to prevent further alterations by a fresh treaty of commerce, which will give the English greater privileges in the Low Countries than she ever thought of claiming for the Flemings in England. If the King speak of confirmation of old treaties with the Low Countries, he shall enquire which treaties, in order to let the Queen know, and say she will have no objection to confirm any of them but the treaty of 1506, which would be the utter ruin of Flanders. The others, especially that of 1520, which is only a confirmation of previous ones, might be observed for a time, if the proposed alliance turn out profitable, if the King's ministers would only forbear their constant attacks upon that treaty. Brussels, 31 March 1541, before Easter.

219. The Council to Henry VIII.
Have been together, according to his commandment, and considered the letter sent from Sir Thos. Wharton; which contains two points, (1) a matter touching John Heron, and (2) an overture touching the King of Scots.
As to the first, considering that the accusation rests on one person, a thief whose father has been punished by the Carnabyes, and considering the malice between the Carnabyes and Heron, and favour between the Carnabyes and Wharton, it may be that Carleton, being brother to one of the outlaws for Roger Fenwyk's death, has thrown out this bone to please the Warden (fn. 4) and procure restitution of the outlaw. Think, therefore, that Heron should not be sent for yet; for, supposing him guilty, if Dod should be taken, he would think his treason discovered, and fly and put all rules in danger of revolt, as Tyvidale heretofore did; and, supposing him not guilty, if he were sent for and troubled, he could never serve after, and it would be hard to find a man to take charge of his rules. A letter should be written to Wharton secretly to investigate the matter, and a like letter to the ambassadors of Scotland "that were late here," from two or three of the Council, requiring them, upon their own sayings here of the matter of Halton, to advertise the truth. As to his being advertised "from above, that in case such a thing were attempted, war should follow"; it is impossible, since there was no such determination. If he spake so, it may have been upon the letters sent to him and others from York, whereby he hoped that such matter would follow, and to encourage the other to proceed in his device against his enemy. This Wharton should also investigate.
The second matter touching, as it does, the taking of a king in his own realm, by subjects of his uncle, "not being in enmity with him, but resting upon his answer and the sending of commissioners," is of such importance that they would not dare to discuss it without express command. Find in it many difficulties. First, the castle to which he resorts is (blank) miles within Scotland. The country between it and England is so well inhabited that the conveying of men to the place where he should be intercepted would be discovered. Doon Frese, one of the best towns in Scotland, is in that quarter, and the country so inhabited that it would be hard to bring him thence alive. Then, if discovered, what slander and deadly feud would ensue! Likewise what slander if the "party" should be apprehended or the King slain! Cannot advise it; and think Wharton (who, they think, meant it well) should "surcease and make no living creature privy to any such ma[tter]," unless upon some future command from the King.
