Since  his  last  letter  of  the  9th  inst.  he  has  taken  up  of
Wolfe  Van  Lyndena  60,000  florins  to  be  paid  the  20th
February  1663  at  the  rate  of  six  per  cent.,  which  will  amount
with  interest,  etc.  to  the  sum  of  64,236  florins.  Bequests
Cecil  to  send  him  the  Queen's  bonds  and  the  city's.  He  has
now  to  receive  in  the  payments  of  the  "  Sjmgzon  "  mart  the
sum  of  22,6002.  Flemish.  The  Queen  little  knows  what  he
has  done  for  obtaming  this  ready  money,  and  for  the  prolon-
gation of  the  64,0002.  Sends  commendations  to  Lord  Robert
Dudley.— Antwerp,  11  August  1562.    Signed.

August  12.    468.        The  Couktess  of  Lennox  to  Cecil.
Understands  that  her  husband  has  submitted  to  the  Queen^
which  submission  she  accounts  very  slender  for  such  a  fault.
Has  received  many  answers,  whereby  it  seemed  that  his
liberty  rested  only  upon  his  submission,  and  now  it  pleases
the  Queen  not  to  accept  it.  Is  sure  that  the  Earl  would  do
it  as  largely  as  the  &ult  required.  Has  done  according  to
Cecil's  advice  and  written  to  the  Lord  Keeper  and  the  Earl
of  Pembroke. — Shene,  Wednesday.     Signed.

to  apprehend  Captain  Hepburn,  a  Scotsman,  who  having
