Sept. 13th, Mr. Lock browght Benjamyn his sonne to me:
his eldest sonne also, called Zacharie, cam then with him. Sept.
17th, the Quene's Majestie cam from Rychemond in her coach, the
higher way of Mortlak felde, and whan she cam right against the
church she turned down toward my howse: and when she was against my
garden in the felde she stode there a good while, and than cam ynto
the street at the great gate of the felde, where she espyed me at my
doore making obeysains to her Majestie; she beckend her hand for me;
I cam to her coach side, she very speedily pulled off her glove and
gave me her hand to kiss; and to be short, asked me to resort to her
court, and to give her to wete when I cam ther; hor. 6? a meridie.
Sept. 14th, I began against Vincent Murphyn. Sept. 15th, I wrote to
the bishop of London. Sept. 22nd, my declaration against Vincent
Murphin put into the court of Geldhall.
Oct. 3rd, on Munday, at 11 of the clok before none, I delivered my
two rolls of the Quene's Majesties title unto herself in the garden
at Richemond, who appointed after dynner to heare furder of the
matter. Therfore betwene one and two afternone, I was sent for into
her highnes Pryvy Chamber, where the Lord Threasurer allso was, who,
having the matter slightly then in consultation, did seme to dowt
much that I had or could make the argument probable for her highnes'
title so as I pretended. Wheruppon I was to declare to his honor
more playnely, and at his leyser, what I had sayd and could say
therin, which I did on Tuesday and Wensday following, at his
chamber, where he used me very honorably on his behalf.
