the Sieur Da Vernay's Letters and Correspondence with Count Tekeley which you will find diametrically opposite to those Declarations so worthy the Piety and Generosity of the most Christian King I have made use of no evil practice for the obtaining these Letters I have not though I could have done it so much as employed any Body to observe the French And to tell you all I got these Letters by the means of the Steward of the most Illustrious Lord Stadnick's Estate The Sieur Du Vernay after having long importuned the Monks of a Monastery of St. Basil went also to importune the Steward who is Castellan at Premislaw So much he did that he stirred up the Gentlemans Anger against himself and so consequently he became my Friend and has ever since been very favourable to my Intentions This Castellan some dayes ago stopt certain Hungarians coming back from Nimiravia whither they went to see the Sieur Du Vernay immediately he ordered them to be brought to me with the Letters he sound about them I presently took care to convey them to the Emperour my Master's Territories sending at the same time the Letters to the end that all the World might judge whether I had not just cause to suspect that the Sieur Du Vernay exceeded his Master's orders Certainly this Agent this Minister this Spy this Ambassador I know not what to call him but I mean Monsienr Du Vernay has committed a great outrage against all Christendom Against the Emperor in fomenting and contriving what he has against him Against your Majesty in entertaining a Commerce so unworthy so pernicious and for so long a time without your knowledge and in your Kingdom as if he had been at home I must add for the Interest of your Kingdom that this Conduct has given the World occasion to believe that the Polanders were blind enough not to see the dangers their Neighbours made them fear and that they would themselves drive the Poniard to their own Breast in permitting the Sieur Du Vernay to live amongst them His proceeding will without doubt appear very injurious to the French King for that Posterity may judge and believe that the great King Lewis the XIV Authorized or commanded what the Sieur Du Vernay his Agent did in his Name Your Majesty will not take it ill that we have discovered to the Assemblies at Francfort and Ratisbonne the Famous Exploits of the French with the Turks and Rebels of Hungary in your Kingdom which for so many Ages has been closely united with the August-House of Austria and has alwayes acknowledged its own Interest to preserve Hungary to the Empire thinking it impossible for Peland to subsist if Hungary shall sall It is now a year that the Sieur Du Vernay travels up and down several Parts of your Maiestjes Dominions on the Borders of Hungary He always pretends his Masters as if we could see that Dantzick or Rogioment which are the Places the French come through were not nearer and more proper to receive what Orders the French King would send But he stays there to observe the nearer the Affairs of Hungary It may be also to be in a better condition to go give Count Tekeley joy and to get the reputation with him of the Progress the Turks by his means might make in that Country I desire your Majesty that after you have seen the Memorial I present and after you are convinced of all the Arts the French have used in this Kingdom you will be pleased to order the Sieur Da Vernay to depart your Dominions since he abuses his Employments to the prejudice of all Christendom and renders himself unworthy the Protection the Law of Nations allows You may do it so much the more justly great King because the Roman Catholick Church your Mother esteems them as Excommunicated Persons who side with Infidels whether it be carrying them Arms or treating with them The Sieur Du Vernay has drawn this upon his own head and if he is punished according to his deserts the most Christian King will banish him his Kingdom for exceeding his Orders and engaging his Master's Honour and Reputation In fine he has committed his Villanies in the French King's Name and broke his Master's word acting in all things contrary to the observance of it which if it should fail in the World could be no where found but in the Mouth of a King or Prince I doubt not great King but all my pressing reiterated and just instances will at last take effect The Alliances and Treaties that are between this Kingdom and the Empire require it from your Majesty And I also with a most profound respect beg to be admitted to the honour of some part of your Affections A Letter from Monsieur Du Vernay to Count Emery Tekeley My Lord I Received with great joy the Letters you did me the honour to write to me from the Camp before Filleck enclosed in the Pacquets of our Ambassadors at Constantinople nevertheless I was a little surprized that you should seal them before he had seen them I wonder also you said nothing about the Siege of Filleck However I doubt not but that place by this time is in your power Monsieur Jaygel I believe knows by my last Letters that I have several times endeavoured to send him what I promised and let him have what I have received but I always wanted an opportunity When you send any of your People to me order them not to come to my House but at Night to the end we may do our business without any bodies knowledge But what I most earnesty desire is that above all things they take care not to follow the Road that goes directly from Tavoravia to Nimirovia For here are several Polish Gentlemen who by the most Serene King of Poland's Order search visit and detain all strangers that pass The safest way in my Opinion is that they leave Premislaw and Toreslavia on the right hand and follow the Road that leads to Sandomiria lest they be seen to enter Nimirovia where I am surrounded with Spyes I recommend the enclosed to you and desire you to send them according to their Directions by the first opportunity I will take the same care in all things you shall be pleased to command me I am most cordially Sir Your most zealous Servant Du Vernay Boucauld Nimirovia Sept. the 22d 1682. The Superscription was thus To the most Illustrious Lord Count Emery Tekeley Lord of Kesmark and Arve General of the Hungarian Army that sights for its Country The Audience being ended His Majesty of Poland said he was convinced of the French Correspondence with the Malecontents He shew'd himself very angry that the thing had been conceal'd from him Next day some of the chief Officers of his Court had Order to go and command the Sieur Du Vernay immediately to depart the Kingdom He said he would obey his Majesties Order but that he earnesty desired those Gentlemen to give him some
