Letter 151005 James

May 1510 From James Marshall, To Kel William Marshal


 * William,


 * We haven’t spoken in some time, but I am writing to you because our family is in dire need. Steven has grown increasingly unstable. He has become dangerous to those around him. One of the serving boys was whipped to within an inch of his life for making “treasonous eyes” at the lord. 


 * John, Edward, and I feel the need to do something about this, but with times as they are, there is not much that can be done. You know people at court, perhaps you could do something?


 * Your brother,


 * James Marshall
