Warrant by Treasurer Godolphin to the Surveyor General of
Crown Lands for a particular of part of Waltham Forest where Sir
Thomas Webster bart. desires to enclose a way for the more easy and
safe access to his seat of Copthall where he now inhabits : all in
order to a lease to him of the said enclosure for 31 years at 1l. 5s. 0d.
per an. rent.
Prefixing : said Surveyor's report on said Webster's petition for
same. The present way is as petitioner alleges very bad and
dangerous. The way now proposed to be made at his own charge
will extend from Epping Road in a straight line to the end of his
avenue leading to Copthall, in length on the south west side 146 rods
and on the north east side 133 rods and 8 rodd and 13 foot in breadth
and contains by admeasurement 7 acres 2 rods 20 perches. What
is desired will be no prejudice to the forest as there is no timber
on the premises but only bushes and shrubs with which all the
neighbouring parts in Epping Walk (where the said premises are
situate) do abound. The borderers on the forest do usuall turn in
cattle to feed upon the premises and this petitioner's tenants chiefly,
but I dont find they have any just claim to such privilege but that
her Majesty may lease any part thereof. "And it were to be wished
that since this [Epping] Walk for many miles together is altogether
neglected both in regard to deer and timber that some enclosures
might be made for nursing up young trees or improving the land
(which is a tolerably good soil) rather than let it remain useless as
it does at present." The petitioner proposes to plant with young
trees and there being a way across the same from some villages
thereabouts to Epping &c. he engages he will affix 2 clap gates in the
common passage now used which will prevent any inconveniences
by the intended inclosure. Warrants not Relating to Money XIX,
pp. 522-3.

one whole day in a week.

from William Bathurst and John Portman, accountants in said Office.

Henshaw (merchants and partners residing in Genoa) as joint agents

Kirke who was thereto deputed in Jan. 1704-5 has not given the
usual security.

Cha. Henshaw merchants of London. Ibid., p. 525.

Prefixing : report dated 1706 June 7 from Jos. Tredenham and
Arth. Moore, Comptrollers of Army Accounts, on the representation
of Col. John Hill ut supra p. 633 praying the adjusting the accounts
of his Regiment during the time they were prisoners in France.
Hereon the Comptrollers report that in adjusting the accounts in
accordance with the Act of 4-5 Anne c. 12 (which provides inter al.
for the pay of the Regiments of Lieut. General Stewart, made
prisoners at Castle d'Ovida in Portugal in June 1704, and of Col.
John Hill's Regiment made prisoners at Port Allegre in May 1704
and so continued for the space of twelve months or thereabouts)
"we have taken the following method. We directed the several
Officers to form muster rolls for every two months from the time of
the last muster of them in Portugal to the time they were mustered
on their return into England." We have strictly examined same
with the last muster rolls taken in Portugal and with the receipts
for the draughts made into Lieut. Gen. Stewart's Regiment and the
muster rolls taken on the landing in England. And we have heard
and examined the Officers thereon : and thereupon we have computed
the respits as follows from 25 Aug. 1704 to 25 June 1705.

We compute the full pay of the Regiment according to the Portugal
Establishment from 25 Aug. 1704 to 24 June 1705 to amount to
12920l., so that after deducting the above respites there will remain
10,540l. 11s. 2d. to clear the Regiment to that time. There were
several that were respited in the last muster rolls taken in Portugal
and the Officers affirm that these were then in their Companies and
remained so till death or desertion and were subsisted accordingly.
And the Officers allege that that muster was taken after the Regiment
was made prisoners of war and was not taken by view but by report ;
which we are inclinable to believe, there being sundry of these private
men respited on those rolls which we find afterwards delivered to
Lieut. Gen. Stewart or mustered in England. These we have allowed
but as to those alleged to have died or deserted (amounting to 119l.
8s. 0d. as follows) we submit the consideration thereof to your
Lordship.
