[93]<The> author of the battaile of Lepanto[94] <was> hangd at Tyburne; he was reduced to such necessity.
The lord Burleigh, when he read <Richard> Knolls' Turkish history was particularly extremely pleased at the discription of the battail of Lepanto; sent for Knolles, who told him an ingeniose young man came to him, hearing what he was about, and desired that he might write that, having been in that action. I thinke he has taught schoole about Sandwych.
My lord hunted after him, and traced him from place to place, and at last to Newgate. He was hanged but a 14 night before. He unluckily lost a good opportunity of being preferred—<from> Mr. Smyth, Magd. Coll.
