TitleThoms Trodd to Colonel Sanders
Date1 Sep 1659
Description'I have written several times but judge my letters came not to you because of the late troubles - I wish to stay a little longer before I take my journey to Scotland - it has pleased God to afflict my family for 3 months past, so that I am out of capacity to take so long a march - my wife has been exceedingly sick and it is but 2 days since I had hopes of her recovery and my second son lies at the point of death - I judge he cannot live 2 days - I intend to come and see you as soon as I can to take my journey for Scotland - I hear you have sent my cornet away so there will be no lack of officers with my troop - as he is now married, I shall send him back to his wife as soon as I can - I hear Colonel Twistleton's regiment now in Scotland, has orders to recruit to 70 in each troop'.
