Osterwick, for that by their countenances I perceved they thought I hadd written somthing against them, which I had not donne, but only tuching Capt. Speck, how he did thinges of his owne head, not making us of councell in doing thereof. Which letter I had noe sowner shewed to Jno. Osterwick but he forthwith went to the Hollandes howse, and there I fownd hym talking with the Hollanders, and, as I surmised, tould them what I hadd wrott tuching
Capt. Speck, for he blusht at my entrance, Mr. Eaton accompanyinge me, to speake with Capt. Leonard to determen what to send the tono to morow, and he to accompanie me in doing of it in halves, as he thought it fitt to doe the like to Taccamon Dono, Lord Cheefe Justis.
