Thanks God for her brother's good health and prays night and day to continue it so. She cannot get the money from John Gruffydd as yet, but he promises that he will get it shortly. She told him that if he did not get it out of hand, he would not get any bargain out of her brother. If she can get the money, she will, God willing, send it with the next carrier that comes down to London. It greatly grieves her heart that William Maurice stands in so much need of money. He should show his mind to Morris ap John ap Morris knowing he is a 'backe frind unto us all'. She would not for anything that William Maurice had sent Morris ap John ap Morris to William Lewis Anwill about Erw Syran. He said that he would give no money to redeem it. Claimed that the right is in himself for that bargain and that he goes to law with his mother-in-law for it. Therefore urges her good brother to do what may be done to get the money to hire from Sir Thomas Myddelton or of any other. He can have as much of Brynkir land except the house 'itself as will save him harmless'. She has heard that 'a complaint was maied agenst you for hir[i]nge a masse, but the Lord be thanked all the worldell kn[o]we that you lovid the kinge beter nor aney of them all exepte the pryve counsell'. She prays night and day for his Grace and for her brother likewise that he both speak and do what pleaseth his Grace. She heartily beseeches him to take care of himself and not to take geat matters 'so light as you will take smoke matters'. It is reported in the country that William Maurice is Sheriff in Merionethshire and Constable of Harlech. If it be true she prays him remember the [torn] bailiffe for her. If he can get no money in London, prays him send her word when he [intends] to come home and she will meet him at Oswestry to see whether her son-in-law Roger [ap] Hughe can get any money there ... to pass the danger of the day. Begs her brother to make speed home.
