Westminster. He was also Secretary to the Treasury under Lord
Southampton till 1667. Ob. 1682-3. His second wife here
mentioned was Joan, daughter to Sir Henry Fanshawe, and widow of
Sir William Botteler, Bart.] Thence to my Lord's; where I am
told how Sir Thomas Crew's Pedro, with two of his countrymen
more, did last night kill one soldier of four that quarrelled
with them in the street, about ten o'clock. [Eldest son of Mr.
afterwards Lord Crewe, whom he succeeded in that title.] The
other two are taken; but he is now hid at my Lord's till night,
that he do intend to make his escape away.
5th. Into the Hall; and there saw my Lord Treasurer [Earl of
Southampton.] (who was sworn to-day at the Exchequer, with a
great company of Lords and persons of honour to attend him) go up
to the Treasury Offices, and take possession thereof; and also
saw the heads of Cromwell, Bradshaw, and Ireton, set up at the
further end of the Hall.
7th. To Westminster Hall. And after a walk to my Lord's; where,
while I and my Lady were in her chamber in talk, in comes my Lord
from sea, to our great wonder.
