  <dc:title>Letter from William Sherard, Smirna</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Written at Smirna; sent by the Dalavall galley
Arrived 29 November following a tedious journey occasioned by the rebellion in Hungary and the late change of government in this empire, but Mr C Rayn stayed until his arrival; various payments made; request for more cloth; reminder at the last court he had been promised the same allowance as his predecessor, could the order for it be given to the Treasurer.</dc:description>
