Pepys, Samuel, 1633-1703

"The Diary of Samuel Pepys"

At
night, my Lord resolved to send the Captain of our ship to
Waymouth and promote his being chosen there, which he did put
himself into readiness to do the next morning.
9th. This afternoon I first saw France and Calais, with which I
was much pleased, though it was at a distance.
11th. A Gentleman came from my Lord of Manchester to my Lord for
a pass for Mr. Boyle, [The celebrated Robert Boyle, youngest son
of Richard first Earl of Cork.] which was made him. All the news
from London is that things go on further towards a King. That
the Skinners' Company the other day at their entertaining General
Monk had took down the Parliament arms in their Hall, and set up
the King's. My Lord and I had a great deal of discourse about
the several Captains of the Fleet and his interest among them,
and had his mind clear to bring in the King. He confessed to me
that he was not sure of his own Captain, to be true to him, and
that he did not like Capt. Stokes.
14th. This day I was informed that my Lord Lambert is got out of
the Tower, and that there is 1001.
