Letter from the Commissioners with the King, that He is come to Holdenby.
For the Right Honourable the Earl of Manchester, Speaker of the House of Peers pro
Tempore.
"My Lord,
By the Providence of God, which hath gone along
with us from the First Step to the last in this Journey, the King is come well to Holdenby. Colonel
Graves, who commanded the Convoy, hath managed
his Trust with great Care and Vigilancy, and hath
performed extraordinary Duty in his own Person;
which we hold ourselves obliged to represent unto
you. We have here Nine Hundred Horse and Dragoons, which, quartering within a little Compass,
cannot but (fn. *) be very burdensome to the Country;
and therefore intreat your Lordship to move the
Houses to give special Directions for their Pay. We
are here now, after Five Weeks spent in this Service,
attending their further Orders, according to the Commands laid upon us in our First Instructions. Our
Hope and earnest Desire is, that, our Emplovment
being come to this Period, you will be pleased to
move their Lordships, to enjoin us to wait upon them
at London; which we shall acknowledge as a very
great Favour done to,
Holdenby, 16 Febr. 1646.
My Lord,
"Your Lordship's faithful Servants,
"Pembrook & Mount.
B. Denbigh.
Edw. Mountagu."
