[1] [2] [3] Edw. Hall. Doctor Tun|stall made bi|shop of Lon|don.This yeare was a great death in London and o|ther places of the realme. Manie men of honour and great worship died, and amongest other, the bishop of London, doctor Fitz Iames, in whose place was doc|tor Tunstall elected. The earle of Surrie retur|ned out of Ireland, and came to the court the fiue and twentith of Ianuarie. Manie complaints were made by the merchants to the king and his councell of the Frenchmen, which spoiled them by sea of their goods. For by reason that the wars were open betwixt the emperour, and the French king, manie ships of warre were abroad on both parts, and now and then the Englishmen fell into their hands, and were vsed as enimies; namelie by the Frenchmen, which na|turallie hated the Englishmen. The French kings ambassadors promised restitution of euerie thing, but little was restored. In this moneth of Ianuarie therefore, the king commanded all his ships to be rigged, and made readie, which was doone with all diligence.
