A the end of the fairly long letter just copied, a postscript is written. It is signed only by Thomas Bulkley (BUL-1). The copy I have in hand is difficult to read in places, but here goes:
"Besides the Papers forementioned, I have herewith sent you some Memorials of his Miscarriages Contained in 39 Articles, Copy of a Mittimus; a message from the Commons to him, containing a Misdemeanous of one .pici..., ..d ... pro..se under Written; his Speech to the Concil, when Debated with for ordering Vessels sd Exter and ...... ...

Whew, what a stack of papers! Yet there is one more written note "As a Supplement to our Letter...". Another note, another day it must be.
