ADDRESS to Queen Elizabeth on the disorders of the Royal Household, by an officer of the same. The writer, who defends himself against the charge of dishonesty made against him and hinted at by the Queen 'in a generall speache' to all her officers, states that from 28 years of age (f. 5 b) he has 'served vnder iiijor Kinges and Queenes by the space of xxxvtie yeres' (f. 8 b) and that he is 'the seconde in the comptinghouse by place, but most in chardge by office', and retorts by charges against the Lord President of Wales [Sir Henry Sidney ?]. The most likely author seems to be Sir James Croft, Comptroller of the Household 1565-1588 (see Dict. Nat. Biogr. and cf. Lansdowne MS. 38, f. 95).
Paper; ff. 9. Quarto. 83/4 in. x 61/2 in. Circ. 1580. Not in the old catalogues.
