They require every Saboth a sermon, and he that is now son there because he is a yong scholler and not well able to forme it, is desyrous to make an exchaunge, wth mr vnderhill and some of his friendꝭ offer him Cli He thinkꝭ that mr Robt Sandy may do him some pleasure in the matter by his aquaintance wth the patron of the benefice He spake of this Septemb. 28 ♀ ho. 10. 45 a. m. 1604
