Mentions the great wrecks that have lately occurred upon this coast. A Dutch ship of 200 or 300 tons was cast away at Nigell [Porth Neigwl]. It was one of 29 carrying soldiers for Portugal. There were only eight men, whereof two were saved, who may, when they reach home, tell wonders of this country. On Friday a Dutch convoy came aground at Porth y llonge; the crew and munition were saved. Has had a few oranges by chance, which he sends herewith. A Bristol ship has come aground by Dinas Dinlley. Hears that a London ship, with Spanish wool, was cast ashore in Merionethshire, but all were saved.
