2d december 1664

We delivered the Privy Council's letters to the Governors of St. Thomas's Hospital, in[Pg 380] Southwark, that a moiety of the house should be reserved for such sick and wounded as should from time to time be sent from the fleet during the war. This being delivered at their Court, the President and several Aldermen, Governors of that Hospital, invited us to a great feast in Fishmongers' Hall.
