Reference: 8ANC11/106
Title: LORD WYLLUGHBY to the COUNCIL OF STATE.
Description:

--Gentlemen, by my letters of the 24th, 26th, and 28th of this month, I have prayed you to provide without delay for the forces here, by sending victuals, artillery and munitions of war. As nothing but a merely trifling quantity has come, I must once more beg that you will take the matter to heart and not, in future, write to the several provinces that we are well provided (which is not the fact); the consequence of which is that they make no effort to assist us, as you may see by the letter of the Council of Zeeland, annexed (wanting).

 

If any trouble should arise--which God forbid--the blame would fall on the good fellows here, although they would be in no way guilty.
