" A copy of a letter from Mr. John Lord, to his cousin, Mr. Rich. Lord.
Apamatixe, the 20th of Feb. 1663.
" Loving Cousin,-Yours by Mr. Parker came to hand, wherein 1 underst ind that you are not sattistyed with the propositions that I made to you. If you were acquaint with Virginia as well as I, you would not thinke that getting in of debts in such remote partes of the countrey is soe easy a matter : but to avoyde all future trouble betwixt soe neer relations as we are, I shall be content to paye you (9000 1b) of tobaccoe the next yeare, if tobaccoe be made, or as sone as pos- sible may be. I should have complyed with my for- mer engagement the last yeare, but that tobaccoe was not made. Of all the time that I have knowne Vir- ginia, I never sawe the like. Cousin, I hope to see you here next yeare, and then doubt not but a fayre complyance : but however it shall not be my faultc, if we doe not agree ; because I would not trouble the spirits of so neer relations as our mothers. And,

cousin, if you are not too much discouraged in Vir- ginia trade, pray bring or send me ten or twelve bushels of your best winter wheat for seed, (for I am going to be a good husband, and get good bread and beare,) and fower or five bushels of the best bareley, and I shall endeavoure to make you good and honest sattisfaction.
" I shall not enlarge, being in great haste. But my duty to my mother and love to all my freinds in gen- erall. I have sent your mother a small percell of sweet-sented tobaccoe; I would have sent more, but it was inconvenient for Mr. Parker to convay it to his vessell, and a small token to your sisters, but that I was disapoynted, not els.
But your loveing unckell to command to my power. Superscribed JOHN LORD."

Mathew, probably his son, represented that town in 1694 and 97; Samuel in 1718; and John in 1734 and 38.
2 RENOLD, an original settler, removed to Say- brook before 1639, where he died in 1662, leaving two children, Reinold and Mary. Reinold represented Lyme in the General Court from 1670 to 1676; and he or his son, Capt. Reinold, sometimes spelled Reignold, represented Lyme from 1701 to 1728. Samuel represented Lyme in 1711 and 1722.
