In which Monmouth loses his last Place
December: The 15th, sir Edward Wood, his majesties envoy to the king of Sweden, returned from that service, and kissed their majesties hands.
The king hath been pleased to revoke his letters patent constituting the duke of Monmouth master of his horse.
The earl of Feversham is made master of the horse to the queen, in the room of sir John Arundell.
The 21st, the committee of the lords of the councill appointed for that purpose reported to his majestie severall effectuall means for putting the lawes in execution against papists, and for the suppression of popery.
And accordingly there came out his majesties proclamation for the more effectuall suppressing of popery.
His majestie lately received a letter from the lords of his privy councill in Scotland, returning his majestie their most humble and hearty thanks for that great favour and kindnesse in sending his royall brother to reside amongst them.
His majestie hath granted the office of receiver and paymaster of his forces to Nicholas Johnson and William Fox, esqs.
The 31st, his majestie appointed sor Stephen Fox, sir Richard Mason, sir Nicholas Armorer, Thomas Windham and Roger Pope, esqs., his commissioners for executing the place of master of his horse.
We have information from Scotland that severall of the nobility and gentry, were very splendidly entertained by the citty of Edenburgh in the great parliament hall.
