Sir,

yesterday complaint being made to the Lords at the starr
chamber that a ship which caried men for the Lord Baltimore
to his new plantation in or about New England : was
the Master or Captaine contrairie to gone for Grayesend:
the companie hav taken the oth of allegiance. Their Lo
caused a letter to be written unto you al then
present did subscribe) to make stay of that ship as shee passed
by you in the Downs or else where. In that letter the ship is
called by the name of the Charles of London, but since we are
informed that her name is the Ark of London and that one
Richard Low is Master and Captain Winter hath charge of the
cornpanie. Therefore I thought fit to certifie you with all speed
that, that the ship may not escape by the error of the name so
resting
your assured friend
to serve you
John Coke.
