[Footnote 159.1: [From Paston MSS., B.M.] This letter is not

addressed on the back, nor is the handwriting that of Margaret

Paston, but from the subscription it would appear to have been

written by her to one of her sons; and as John Paston the younger

is mentioned in the body of the letter, the person addressed was

evidently his elder brother. The letter seems to have been written

shortly before the Duke of Suffolk’s attempt on Hellesden

mentioned in the next No., probably on the Saturday preceding it.]
