Catalogue description The COUNCIL OF STATE to LORD WILLOUGHBY.

--Sending him a list of the supplies which they have provided for Bergen op Zoom. They have written to the Governors of Flushing and the Briell to send some troops, and desire his Lordship to write in like manner to Ostend, seeing that for the present these towns are in no danger. They also pray that he will give orders for the careful administration of the provisions sent, and that he will remember that the moments may seem long to him, yet the winds and the seas prevent things being done so quickly as might be wished. Signed, Meynertsen; Chr. Huygens. Seal of arms
