CHAPTER XVI. 56

Mounteagle “knew there was a Letter to come to him before it came”——Who was his “Secretary,” Thomas Ward?——Almost certainly brother-in-law to Christopher Wright——Proofs of this assertion—— Entry of marriage in St. Michael-le-Belfrey’s Church, York, of a “Thomas Warde of Mulwaith, in the p’ishe of Rippon, and M’rgery Slater, 29th May, 1579”——Entry of burial of “Marjory wife of Thomas Warde of Mulwith,” in Register at Ripon Minster, about eleven years after, 20th May, 1590.
