Catalogue description LORD WYLLUGHBY to LORD TREASURER BURGHLEY.

--Understanding that one who calls himself Cecyll has exhibited a grievous complaint against me to the Lords of the Council (which I am desirous and content to answer), I thought good first to acquaint your Lordship with the fellow's bad proceedings, which, if you vouchsafe to read the few lines sent herewith, will plainly appear. I pray that he may give me satisfaction "by submitting himself in open places here," as otherwise, for my reputation's sake, I must prosecute him at the Common Law. I humbly thank your Lordship for your favour concerning a little retiring house in Stamford. I have no house nor dwelling which shall not be, like myself, at your command. Signed. Seal of arms.
