\Þ Pon! the firſt publication of that terrible Order of Gaftaldo, which was 4 
14+ forerunner of the Maſſacre, the Proteſtant. Canrons of Switzerland, bes 
ing their near neighbors, and therefore cold {goneſt take notice of ir,” wrote 
their-Letters to the Duke of Savoy in the poor A groom To which the 
Dukt: of Sevvy ſhortly after gave a colmplemental, but cold anſwer, which was 
tirtle betrer than a Plain denial of their requeſt, and mediation. LO Oy 

April the 29. being the Lords day, news of the hortible Maffacre was 
beefogy t to the Council of Zarick, who immediately gave Order for a publick 
day of ' Humiliation through all their Territories, as alſo for making a Colleion 
for their relief , reſolving to give notice 'of this dokefutt news to their Pro- 
teftant Friends; and' amongſt others, they wrote to tlie Srares Generel of the 


Hnited Provinces , acquaintin © ther with the {ad condition of i eee

their Deputy to the Duke of 5avvy, who in very reſpe&ful terms requeſted him 
to re-eftabliſh thoſe who had ſurvived the Maflacre in their anci ivi | 
the freeexerciſe of rheir Religion, and for the ———_ of their Priſoners, 
delivering him a Letter'to the-lapre purpoſe. ' The anſwer which the Duke: ( or 
rather his Mother) gave, was, that though they were not obliged to give an 


- account of their actions to any - Prince in the world, yet-out of reſpe& /to the 


amity which they had compacted with his Maſters the Ceztoxs, they had given 
Order to'the Marqueſs of P:areſſa to acquaint them with the truth of thoſe af- 
fairs: And ſhortly after when Major weis {pake with the Marqueſs, he labored to 
juſtifie: al{ his. proceedings, and: to lay the load upon the backs of the poor 
| people; proteſting rhat he never intended to force their Conſciences,/ and that 
all the reports about ſuch ſtrange cruelties exerciſed towards them were meer 


© Myjor weis replied that the Maſſacre was fo notorious, that it could not be 
denied; and thac-rheir right of habitation in thoſe places was founded upon 
Juſtice, being [granted to then by- the Dukes Predecefſors, and purchaſed by 
them of the preſent Duke for Six thouſand Ducatoons. The Marqueſs anſwered, 


that all choſe Grants were upon'condirion that the Romiſb Religion ſhould: be free- | 


paw oor a ft them, whith yet they would never ſuffer. . Maſter! wes 
prefling this fad condirion, and rhe neceffity af finding an expedient for ac- 
commodation, +; 'the Marqueſs deſired him'to apply himſelf to the poor 
people, and to cauſe them to deſiſt from Hoſtility, which would be the way to 
obtain favor fromthe Duke ; andino marvel though he moved this : For abour
