Mr. Joseph Bain took the following letter out of the mass of the Cely correspondence, when he was making the Calendar of the Documents in the Public Record Office relating to Scotland. It is in the Calendar, vol. iv., Appendix 31. The original is now in Chancery Miscellanea, 22, 6/42. Owing to its removal it was not edited with the other Cely Letters in Camden Third Series, vol. i. Mr. Bain misdated it, and was not aware to whom it was addressed. I can clear up both these points; and the letter is reprinted to make the commentary intelligible. I have had to make some very trifling alterations from Mr. Bain's copy. The letter has no subscription. Mr. Bain attributed it, no doubt rightly, to George Cely. The hand and style agree, and the writer had a brother Richard. It was meant for the hands of Sir John Weston, Prior of the Knights of St. John in England. He was always ‘My lord’ to the Celys, who had coats of his livery, and lived near him.
