cittadel. & Lieutenant of the 2 county es , and some 
of us opposing the List of men y e Mayor had 
destyned. he came home Re Infecta. and Spent y e 
rest of his mayoralty dully, and out of y e good 
people's favour. 
Major Gen 1 Trelawny was made Governor in the 
Room of my L d Bathe, the mayor put himself into 
y c Interest of y e Earle to facilitate his designs of
