At my coming to this place I fownd Leon, the expres I sent from Bingana Tomo, not yet departed, nether had Grubstreet our host sent away my other letter which came from Firando per conveance of our hostis at Bingana Tono; which gave me small content. Yet in the end I perceved per Grubstreet that Capt. Adames had tould hym I had no reason to complaine against the Hollanders as I did, which was the occation he sent not that letter after hym.
