 Biographies: William Parker, Baron Morley & Monteagle
Although compromise was not uncommon at the time, and not indicative of Parker's true feelings, it is unlikely that his catholic friends and family ever knew how far he had been willing to go to vindicate himself, as shown by of this particularly strong letter, as he certainly maintained close relations with them.
Although he initially told Thomas Wintour, who served Monteagle as a secretary, that henceforth he was resolved to stand wholly for the King, and that Wintour should have no speech with him of Spain, he was soon indicating his dissatisfaction with the new monarch amongst his catholic friends.
Some have suggested that Monteagle was a conspirator, however this seems unlikely as he would not then have exposed himself by being the recipient of the letter, nor would have Catesby needed to suspect Tresham as the traitor.

Monteagle at once started for Whitehall, found Salisbury and other ministers about to sit down to supper, and showed the letter, whereupon it was decided to search the cellar under the House of Lords before the meeting of parliament, but not too soon, so that the plot might be ripe and be fully disclosed.
The opinion that the whole plot was the work of Salisbury, that he acted as an agent provocateur and lured on his victims to destruction, repeated by some contemporary and later writers and recently formulated and urged with great ability, has no solid foundation.
The steps taken by Salisbury after the discovery of the gunpowder do not show the possession of any information of the plot or of the persons who were its chief agents outside Fawkess first statement, and his knowledge is seen to develop according to the successive disclosures and confessions of the latter.

 Guy Fawkes and the gunpowder plot
Unfortunately, he was not, and several young men, led by Robert Catesby (son of Sir William Catesby, a prominent leader in the Catholic community), decided that violent and extreme action was the only solution.
They devised a plan to blow up the Houses of Parliament killing the King, possibly the Prince of Wales, and the Members of Parliament presumably in the belief that they would be replaced by a new monarch who might be more sympathetic to the Catholic cause.
On 26th October, however, William Parker, 4th Baron Monteagle received an anonymous letter warning him not to attend the opening of parliament on November 5th.

Robert's father, Sir William Catesby, was a conscientious adherent to the Catholic faith, a prime supporter of the Jesuit mission and one of the leaders of the catholic cause, for which he suffered greatly.
Sir William Catesby was later assigned a project, which met with the approval of Queen Elizabeth, of founding a catholic colony in America, but this plan was later abandoned in the face of Spanish hostility.
This school, founded by Cardinal William Allen for the training of clergy for the English mission but extended to education of the laity, provided an austere and rigorous course of education in scholastic and moral theology, classical languages and the history of the English church.
