Description:

--"My nephew Phillip being resolved to stand at Stamford in the roome of Captaine Hide, and it being the advise of myselfe and all his friends he should trye his fortune in it in case my Lord Burleigh should not stand, I question not but your interest will helpe him to carrye it, for my brother Charles, though he has not declared yet, will be for him. It is a thing that if he carryes, may be of great advantage to him, and make the Court look upon him with better eyes. . . . Pray be not shye in this affaire, for it will be the greatest advantage to your sonne in the world, and to your selfe a noe little one to put soe many sonnes in the House of Commons."
