John Bolle

[4] Following the attack Bolle was invited to oversee the imprisonment of a Spanish aristocrat - Donna (Lady) Leonora Oviedo.

Donna Leonora gave him all her jewellery and gold plates plus a portrait of her wearing a green dress and he dropped her back on the Spanish coast.

In 1600 he received praise for the command of the English army in their attacks on both Donolong and Lifford in Ireland.

The Earl of Essex then appointed Sir John as governor of Kinsale on the south Irish coast.

And William Shenstone wrote the poem "Love and Honour" on the same event, but renames the Lady as "Elvira".
