In the church of StrattoD, and several others in that county, are still preserved copies of a letter of thanks addressed by the unhappy monarch to these faithful subjects. It runs thus : " C. R. " To the inhabitants of the county of Cornwall. ** We are so hisrhly sensible of the merit of our county of ComwalL, of theft zeal for the defence of our person, and the just rights of our crown, in a time when we could contribute so little to our own defence, or to their assistance ; in a time when not... only no reward appeared, but grreat and probable dangers were threatened to obedience and lo^ty ; of their ^eat and eminent courage and patience in their indefatigable prosecution of their great work against so potent an enemy, backed with so strong, rich, and populous cities, ana so plentifully furnished and supplied with men, arms, money, ammunition, and provision of all kinds ; and of the wonderful success with which it pleased Almighty God (though with the loss of some most eminent persons, who maU never be forgotten by us) to reward their k>yalt^ and patience by many strange victories over their and our enemies, m despite of all human probaoility, and all imaginable disadvantages ; that as we cannot be for- getful of so great desert, so we cannot but desire to publish it to all the world, and perpetuate to all time the memory of their merits, and of our acceptance of the same ; and to that end, we do hereby render our royal thanks to that our county in the most public and lasting manner we can devise, commanding copies hereof to be printed and published, and one of them to be read in every church and chapel therein, and to be kept for ever as a record in the same ; that as long as the histcH^ of these times and of this nation shall continue, the memory of how much that county hath merited from us and our crown, may be derived with it to posterity.
