English register: Gattinara is returning Dantiscus’ memorandum to which he has added the emperor’s responses to the individual requests of the king [Sigismund I] and queen [Bona]. He advises the Polish envoy that as regards preparing the document of investiture requested by the queen [Bona], he should go to the secretary Pedro García. Gattinara, meanwhile, will try to come as soon as possible from Tordesillas [to Valladolid, where Dantiscus was]. He sends his regards to Dantiscus and his colleague [Stanisław Borek].
