Title(Sir) John Gell, Derby, to the Captains and gentle-men soldiers of his regiment, not in Nottinghamshire (copy)
Date3 Feb 1644/1645
Description'I conceive that you believe Major Sanders came here to get money for you and your soldiers - it is now clear that he intended to go to London and had procured a pass from Col. Sanders which he concealed both from me and the deputy lieutenants here - he took no care to provide any money for you - there is no money in the treasurer's hands - I have made shift to borrow some for the present and will furnish you with more as soon as possible - some of you petitioned for a new committee but were it not for the old, you would not have received one penny'.
