==Transcription==

...[Six lines at beginning of letter torn] I have sent v^ll^ at this time unto you which I thinke will be sufficient to discharge all your expence.  You write unto mee that you doe intende to come downe presently, and that your tutor will come downe with you, whome I should bee very glad to see heare, and I will have you tell him from me that if it please him to take [the paynes] to come to us, he shall be as hartely wellcome as any frend we have livinge.  I had thought to have written unto him aboute it, but finding myselfe an ill scribe I have left it undonne, hopinge that you have soe carried youre selfe towards him but you can persuade more with him than my letter could.  I shall expect youre comminge accordinge to youre writinge.  You may very easily come down in too dayes.  Youre best way is to come from London to Gravesend by water, and from Gravesend you may easily come to my house in halfe a day.  Thus wishing you to remember me unto your tutor and all the rest of our frends, I leave you to the protection of the Almightie,

Your lovinge father
RICHARD OXINDEN

''From [[MRP: Barham|Barham]] this 14th of June 1626''

To my very lovinge sonne, Mr. Henry Oxinden, at Corpus Christi Collidge in Oxfoord, give this.
