My dutie used, uppon perclosinge of the joynt lettres now sent to your Lord consistinge uppon manie partes I receaved this aduertisement inclosed from the Bushop of Corke which I am bold to sende to your Lord with the privilige of the Lord Deputie whome I first acquainted with the contents thereof. This outward pompe used towardes the childe, beinge far above the usage of the best and greatest persons in that province, maketh showe of an inward pretente to raise an extraordinarie greatnes to the parents, and to drawe a multytude of followers to be readie to serve a torne, when fytte oportunitye shold offer: which beinge considered with the father's former ambicion not unknowne to your Lord mynistreth cause to dowbt further inconveniences by that famyly, and to prevent them. Fynnyn McCarty the father is as yet about London or the court, who though he be (as I heare) in some towardnes to retorne hither yet (with your Lord favor) yt weare not amyss to have him still detyned there, either directlie by authoritie or by device, at least tyll this sommer be passed over, for yf any attempt be made in Mounster by the forreine enemye, there is none in all the province so likely to become the head of a faction, or to move or countenance a tumult, as he, whereof I make bold to aduertise your Lord onely, and so to leaue yt to your Lord further will and pleasure. In grett haste.
At Dublyn
