Title: SIR THOMAS MORGAN, Governor of Bergen op Zoom, to LORD WILLOUGHBY.
Description:

--Has received his Lordship's patents concerning the five companies to be sent from this garrison; and although he has had quite contrary orders from the States General--who desire him to regulate his conduct by the treaty made by them with Sir John Norris, and to keep thirteen full companies of foot and two troops of horse in the town--he has done as his Lordship desires, and has let the five companies depart. Prays that, as the garrison is very weak, and not sufficient to guard the town, some other companies may be sent in place of these as soon as possible. Signed.
