Note 1556 — APPENDIX C SIR JOHN HAWKYNS
Reading edition
Hawkyns was more generous to Borough. In 1582 he wrote on his behalf to Walsyngham, ‘Mr Borough is a man of great virtew and judgment.’ (State Papers, clvi, 34). In fact he very seldom indulged in recriminations even in the thick of the attacks on himself, usually contenting himself with defending his procedure.
