I received by my Brother Barnard Randolph who is now arri-
ved from Eng^d. upon Cap^t. Jenner your letter of y^e 2^d of Octo-
ber with an Enclosed Minute of ye Lords of ye Committee of Trade
for my Coming home: according to yr other received upon
Cap^t. Hoy: I intend God willing to imbark as soon as I
can to review yr Commands at Whit-hall. in ye meane-
tyme this day I have advise that yesterday was appoin-
ted for Tryall of One Gove & others in ye Provinces of
N: Hamps. for arming themselves last weeke & said they
would know who was [Gov^r.] before they laid down their
Army: they were by ye [Gen^rl.] order taken by Major
Waldron. & imprisoned. the whole province Condem-
ning such a rash Act: Mr Mood^e preached upon ye 30^th
of Jan^ry: & made as the Gov^r. hath said to some a good sermon
upon y^e 5^th. Commandement.

I shall be well furnished with new matter ag^t. This Gov^t.
enough to do their busines without taking notice of for-
mer miscarriages: I have not further to ad onely that I
am now going to Papalaqua: & at my returne prepare
for sea. and am S^r:

To the Hon^bl.
