Desires lawful favor for his servant, Robert Cottchett, in a suit, he having said his adversary lied, which appears to be true. Would have delivered his lord's commendations in person but was prevented by business.

Went to the office with Broughton about the privy seal directed to the writer's aunt Joan Egerton, and did all they could, but it would be best for Bagot to send a certificate.

The reason for the larger expenses recently listed is that he enrolled the young man in dancing school, the latter having said his father wished this. This is an exercise well beseeming a gentleman and no hindrance to study. Bagot's son deserves commendation.

Desires Bagot's reconsideration in a cause between the writer and his sister-in-law in which Mr. Adderley has acted with Bagot.

Condolences.

Her father has leased an estate to her in the names of three feoffees - her uncle Okeover, Mr. Egerton, and Bagot himself. She wants this kept secret from her husband [Sir Anthony]. Wants Bagot to come to Okeover to sign the indenture.

Philip Eaton is a bad tenant, will not pay his rent, and Sir John Harper will not demand it. Eaton may have the property if he will pay the rent.

Has sent an inventory of her mother's goods. Her mother was wealthy not in property but in virtues; she owed only good will to all men.

Seeks his influence in getting a lease. She will not be ruined; the Council will right her; God will avenge her.

Will soon have money to pay Bagot and all the country. Desires his company at Stafford on Saturday, when all the high constables will be there.
