Sir Henry Neville to Sir Robert Cecil. 1600/1, Feb. 19. The bearer Mr. Tiery, a Scottish gentleman, whom I knew the last year attending upon my lord Hume in Paris, and who is since become an exempt of the French King's guard, being desirous to return into Scotland, brought me letters of commendation from Mr. Winwood and met me here with them. His desire is only to have a passport for his quiet passage, wherein I entreat your favour towards him.—From Rochester, 19 February 1600. Holograph. Seal ½ p. (76. 92.)
