Achmet, Royal Baths, Dublin to Grantham, Madrid Instructions received from Grantham to send poplins for His Eminence Cardinal Gonzaga Valenti at Rome. No time to wait for opportunity to send them via Genoa, has sent them to a gent. in Naples who will forward them. Hopes that the introduction given by Grantham to Irish poplins will induce "His Holiness and the whole conclave" to wear them. Mentions an embargo on vessels going to Spain, but expects one to sail within six weeks if the embargo has not been lifted by then. [Details of this L 30/14/109/109].
