A LETTER Sent from a Gentleman of Beverley, to one Mr. Holby Gent of London, CONCERNING The Entertainment of my Lord of Holland By the King, At His majesty's Court at Beverley, The Fifteenth day of this present July, 1642. SIR; ALl the News I can write unto you at this time, is that of my Lord of Holland coming to the King's Court at Beverly, being a choice Messenger from the Parliament to the King, my Lord delivering the Petition of Accommodation from the Houses, the King did give him that Noble Entertainment, which was not a little comfort unto my Lord, for His majesty embraced him in His arms, and bade him welcome to His Court at Beverly, and drank to him; The King looking upon the Petition, for his present safeguard, committed him to the Protection of two Harralds for some hour's space: But the King promised him Answer upon Sunday night last at six of the clock, being the Seventeenth day of this present Month of July. His majesty, upon perusal of the Petition, was graciously pleased to release him, and take him to His own Protection, and promised him an Answer, at farthest, on Tuesday night. In the mean time, my Lord of Holland desired of His majesty so much liberty, as to write some Letters to his Friends; which the King granted, that he might write what he thought fitting (the effect being Answer of the Petition, as is supposed) for the King gave gracious Acceptance, and told him what in Honour he could yield unto; the sequel being an Expectation of Peace, as you shall further hear when we have the next opportunity. Beverley, 18 Julii, 1642. London, Printed for Tho: Banks and William Lee. July 21. 1642.
