He has spent recent weeks in Dévény disgusted by the preparations he saw, and when he heard he was to be aeeused with treason at home he deeided to return to Hungary. He told about his decision to Queen Maria and the councillors: he wanted to travel to Ferdinand but had no time left to do so. - 2. He asks Krzycki to relate his affairs to Tomicki and Szvdlowieczki. He has been informed that Sigismund spoke up on his behalf to Szapolyai. He is grateful for the support and knows how much he owes to his Polish friends. Reverendissime Domine, Domine Colendissime.

He was probably commissioned on the national assembly on 23-24 March, because at that time he was still in Buda. See: MOE I. 128. 6 Royal Secretary Erasmus Gerlachowski. He took the news of the lost battle to Cracow in early September 1526, together with Brodarics' letter dated 6 September. (See: AT VIII. 222.) In April 1527 he was staying in Buda again. On 5 April 1527 he handed the offer for Polish mediation at the prospective talks between Szapolyai and Ferdinand in Olomouc.
