A Letter of the Moscouie companie to their Agents in Russia, Master Henrie
Lane, Christopher Hudson, and Thomas Glouer sent in their seuenth voyage
to Saint Nicholas with three ships, the Swallowe, the Philip and Marie,
and the Iesus the fifth of May, 1560.
After our heartie commendations to you. The twelfth day of the last moneth
here arriued in safety, thanks be to God, our two ships, and by them we
receiued your letters and inuoices very well perceiuing what you haue laden
in them. The tallowe came euill conditioned and broken, by reason it came
in Corrobias, wee lose and spoyle more then the Caske will cost, and much
of this tallowe is verie euill, blacke, soft and putrified. Touching the
Waxe, as yet wee knowe not howe the weight will rise, by reason that some
of it was lost in the barkes. The weight of the last yeeres waxe did not
rise so well as the other yeeres before it did. There had neede good heede
bee taken in the weighing.
