22 THE HISTORY OF NEWMARKET. [Book VII. 



Burges, Knight, of London— was a naval officer of high repu- 

 tation under the two first Stuart sovereigns. Having the 

 command of one of the men-of-war sent to bring Prince 

 Charles back from Spain in 1625, he saved his Royal High- 

 ness from being cast away in St. Andero's Road, by taking 

 him into his ship. In 1626 he took the Saint Esprit, one 

 of the largest French ships, on which achievement H6well, in 

 his " Letters," compliments him, saying that, " It was one of 

 the best exploits that were performed."
