Image title
Holograph letter from Henry VIII to Thomas Wolsey, c.1519-20. This secret note to Wolsey reveals Henry's absolute trust in his minister. The King confesses that he found writing 'somewhat tedius and paynefull' but the matter about which he writes could not be made privy to the messenger 'nor non other but yow and I'. Warning Wolsey about a noble conspiracy, Henry urges him to 'make good wache on the duke off suffolke on the duke off bukyngam on my lord off northetomberland on my lord off darby on my lord off wylshere and on others whyche yow thynke suspecte'. Henry's suspicions of Buckingham proved well founded and he was executed for treason on 17 May 1521.
