Downing street is narned after Sir
George Downing, whomss Pepys clled

who 1111d eillgrated to Salemt, in New

got to know the protector, Cromwell,
by whom lie wits appointed chaplain
to the regiment of which the regiIle,
Colonel Okey, was commander, then he
graduated as scoutmaster general of
the parliamentary army, becoming
eventually England's ambassador to
the Netherlands. But Downing was
not so prejudiced in favor of Puritan
Ism (though he had "done the lackey
Ing to Cromwell'4 conch") as to be un
able to accept a post uider the govern
ment of Charles H, with the result, as
'Mr. i'asvoe says, that lie at tained to

thereon erected by himself; and tle
