Wednesday, 28.--In the morning I rode to Monaghan. The commotions in Munster
having now alarmed all Ireland, we had hardly alighted, when some wise persons informed
the provost there were three strange sort of men come to the King's Arms. So the provost
with his officers came without delay to secure the north from so imminent a danger. I had
just come out when I was required to return into the house. The provost asked me many
questions, and perhaps the affair might have turned serious had I not had two letters with
me which I had lately received; one from the Bishop of Londonderry, the other from the
Earl of Moira. Upon reading these, he excused himself for the trouble he had given and
wished me a good journey.
