Stuart, Charles Edward, called "Bonnie Prince Charlie" or "The Young Pretender" (1720-1788) concerning his financial affairs, in the form of a list headed "1747" and then several indistinct figures ending "S.L. 52 Spent. S[i]r John Lambert" "ye T.P. to draw on Waters. M[emoran]d[um] Di to know from Gordon ye Post Book, ye Wine ye silver for 25. Louis ye servant to be german ye detail of all yr rents with ye form used by J.W. to receive them and the man[n]er I can make one. ye affair of Vignion & ye interest of 5 per C[ent] all to be put in clier having ye acquittances also ye Ordon[n]ances to be given im[m]ediately - for ye amount of 102 T. ye Linnin that is nott to be seen how to wash. If G knows a gentilman"., 1 page, 16mo, n.p. 1747Footnote: Note: The Young Pretender, in dangerous exile in France, often wrote in the vaguest terms. Margaret Foster, in her biography of the Prince wrote that "His fear of detection would not allow him to sign his name or date his letters. Often these missives were written in invisible ink and in disguised hands even worse than Charles' own. The names he did sign at the end only added to the confusion for they changed with bewildering rapidity and it was like receiving anonymous letters which... were difficult to accept as trustworthy". The Waters mentioned in the letter is Charles Edward's Parisian banker. The reference to Vignion presumably indicates Avignon where he spent some of his time in exile. Gordon may be John Gordon, Rector of the Scots College at Paris, to whom the Prince is known to have written at various times. It may be that the reference to "ye Linnin" is in code.

Beaton, Cardinal (c.1494-1546), Archbishop of St Andrews, the last Scottish Cardinal Prior to the Edinburgh, 9th November 1542, to Cardinal Alexandro Farnese, in Latin. Beaton writes to his correspondent as a result of the incursions by King Henry VIII into Scotland, 'Quia de incursionibus Ab Anglorum rege, contra sereniss[imum] et ill[ustrissi]mu[m]. Regum, Do[min]um meu[m], eiusq[u]e regnu[m], illatis ad S[anctissimum] D[ominum] N[ostrum] in p[raese]ntia scribo; ex eisdemq[ue] literis D[etermi]nationem V[estram] R[everendissimam] omnia ad plenu[m] intellecturam esse confido, nihil hoc tempore ad illa[m] scribed[m] esse putavi.

Interim me D[omi]nationi v[est]rae humil[lime] co[m]mendo.', with detached integral address leaf bearing a good affixed blind embossed paper seal, some extremely minor light foxing and a slight area of water staining to the right edge, only very slightly affecting the text and signature which remain perfectly legibleFootnote: Note: An extremely rare letter, written shortly before the Battle of Solway Moss, by the Cardinal whose brutal murder led to Religious warfare in the mid-Sixteenth century. The battle took place at Solway Moss on the Anglo-Scottish border on 24th November 1542. When King Henry VIII of England broke away from the Roman Catholic Church, he asked King James V of Scotland, his nephew, to do the same. James rejected his uncle's request and further insulted him by refusing to meet at York. As a result, King Henry VIII displayed his anger by sending troops against Scotland. In retaliation for the massive English raid into Scotland King James responded by assigning Robert, Lord Maxwell, with the task of raising an army and on 24th November 1542 an army of 15,000 - 18,000 Scots advanced into England and were met near Solway Moss by Thomas Wharton and his 3000 men. The ensuing battle was uncoordinated and has been described as a rout. Alessandro Farnese (1520-1589), Italian Cardinal and Diplomat. Letters signed by Cardinal Beaton are extremely rare. American Book Prices Current have no records of any autograph material by Beaton appearing at auction.
