LORD SCALES TO THOMAS GNATESHALE1

 

To Thomas Gnateshale.

 

     Thomas Gnateshale, I wul ze wite it was oute of my remembrance that
Paston hade pout in my determinacion the discort betwene you and hym. I
was the more favourable to your entent, but in so mych as I had forgete that
beforesaid, I praye you that ye suffre the cornes in mene hand til that I have
determined the matier betwene you too be the advis of lerned men whech han
knowelich in such causses, the which thing I wul do in as short tyme as may,
wherof ze shal have knowelich.

     Writen at Myddelton, the xiiij. day of August.

                                                                                             THE LORD SCALES.

 

     1 [From Paston MSS., B.M.] The person to whom this is addressed is probably
the same ‘Knatysale’ mentioned in the preceding letter, and as it contains no evidence
of any definite date, we think best to insert it here.
