the morning, by eight o'clock, the 'Martyr'
came in from Cales (Cadiz) with provisions, and about ten a clock I
sent Sir Richard Stayner, with 120 men, besides officers, to the
assistance of the Governor, into Tangier."--Lord Sandwich's Journal,
in Kennet's Register.

On the 23rd, Lord Sandwich put one hundred more men into Tangier; on
the 29th and 30th, Lord Peterborough and his garrison arrived from
England, and received possession from the Portuguese; and, on the
31st, Sir Richard Stayner and the seamen re-embarked on board Lord
Sandwich's fleet.--B.]

21st, All the morning putting things in my house in order, and packing
up glass to send into the country to my father, and books to my brother
John, and then to my Lord Crew's to dinner; and thence to Mr. Lewes
Philip's chamber, and there at noon with him for business, and received

two oldest sons, who, with two Belasses and one Squire Wentworth, were
lately apprehended for killing and robbing of a tanner about Newington'
on Wednesday last, and are all now in Newgate. I am much troubled
for it, and for the grief and disgrace it brings to their familys and
friends. After this, having got a very great cold, I got something warm
to-night, and so to bed.

23rd (Lord's day). My cold being increased, I staid at home all day,
pleasing myself with my dining-room, now graced with pictures, and
reading of Dr. Fuller's "Worthys." So I spent the day, and at night
comes Sir W. Pen and supped and talked with me. This day by God's mercy
I am 29 years of age, and in very good health, and like to live and get
an estate; and if I have a heart to be contented, I think I may reckon
myself as happy a
