A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

January ist, 1663-64. Went to bed between 4and 5in the morning with my mind in good temper of satisfaction and slept till about 8, that many people came to speak with me. A mong others one came with the best New Year sgift that ever I had, namely from Mr. Deering, with a bill of exchange drawn upon himself for the payment of 50 to Mr. Luellin. It being for my use with a letter of compliment. I am not resolved what or how to do in this business, but I conclude it is an extraordinary good new years gift, though I do not take the whole, or if I do then give some of it to Luellin. By and by comes Captain Allen and his son Jowles and his wife, who continues pretty still. They would have had me set my hand to a certificate for his loyalty, and I know not what his ability for any employment. But I did not think it fit, but did give them a pleasing denial, and after sitting with me an hour they went away. Several others came to me about business, and then being to dine at my uncle Wight s Iwent to the Coffee-house, sending my wife by Will, and there staid talking an hour with Coll. Middleton, and others, and among other things about a very rich widow, young and handsome, of one Sir Nicholas 1R ebecca A lleyn, spinster (about eighteen), daughter of John A lleyn, was married to Henry Jowles, of Chatham, Kent, bachelor (about twenty-four), in A ugust, 1662 (C hesters London Marriage Licences, ed. Foster, col. 779). In the note on p. 5of vol. ii. the husbands name is, by mistake, printed as Jewkes.
