Details of
Title: "The SHERIFF of WESTMEATH'S CERTIFICATE."
Description:

Whereas it pleased your Lordship (the Deputy?) to direct your letters to me for a proportion of garrons, pioneers, and beoves to be delivered to Sir John Norris at his being in Ulster, we sent the same, but when they came thither the collectors could get no tickets for them. Besides, whereas our pioneers should have been kept but 30 days, they stayed 9 weeks, and could get no entertainment. Therefore the country will not be so willing hereafter.
