clay and not falling [sic for Fullers] earth, fulling clay or

unlawful. You are to stop all ships in said port or any of its
members in which there is any clay suspected to be of the sorts
forbidden by the statutes to be exported ; and not discharge
same till you are satisfied by reasonable proof and trial of the
same that such earth is not of the sorts prohibited by the
statutes.

buildings, warehouses, cranes, &c., erected or to be erected
there (the said keys and wharves abutting East, on Hartshorne

their heirs upon trust as follows, viz. : as for the newly
erected Custom House and the ground thereof with the two
wings or corner rooms at the end thereof, with free liberty of
ingress, &c., with carts or otherwise, and room for the

to inform the officers in what manner the Customs are
answered, and will deliver a particular of such goods ; and that

the King and of all merchants whatsoever as they now are
used, and that he will not exact greater duties or sums of
money than hitherto on the lading or unlading of any goods
and will submit to forfeiture for conniving at any concealment

Warrant from Treasurer Danby to William Harbord, Auditor of

Killegrew and John Tregeagle, Receivers [of said Duchy],
the sums of 140l. and 24l. 7s. 5d. and 96l. expended by them
in prosecuting to a trial the export of tin in bars, in which
great frauds have for some years been practised to the great
decay of the King's revenue from tin : they having, in pursuance
of a command to them to seize all tin so exported, seized a
parcel of bar tin belonging to one Papillon and partners, which
occasioned great expense to said Receivers in defending several
suits prosecuted in the King's Bench against them and their
agents, as also in justifying the said seizure before the King
in Council "and also for further maintenance of His Majesty's
rights were compelled to exhibit one bill in His Majesty's name
against the said Papillon and another against John Tremenhiere
and others, merchants . ., and whereas His
Majesty, upon a hearing in Council, was well satisfied that the
said seizure was just and that his officers had therein well acted
according to duty, &c., yet in regard it appeared that the said
Papillon and partners were not on the place and so not wilful
offenders, His Majesty, being desirous to encourage trade, &c.,
was graciously pleased to order the said tin should be restored,
whereupon, the said tin being valued at 1,280l., the said
Receivers, by direction of His Majesty's Attorney and Solicitor
General, did pay the said sum to Papillon, &c., although in
truth it was more than they sold the said tin for by 96l.," the
said seizure having had very good effect.

to John Wrenn (in full of 60l., he having already received 18l.

Constable of Durham Castle, that said Wrenn, servant to the
late Bishop of Durham, had the care of repairs and airing the
rooms in said Castle, for which he was allowed 20l. per an.

Same from same to Vere Bertie, the King's Remembrancer. In
1661 the King granted to the clergy of the Isle of Man an
augmentation of 100l. per an. to be paid by the Receiver of
Crown Revenues, co. Lanes., Westmorland and Cumberland
(who was receiver for the late Queen Mother there and also in
the Isle of Man) to Charles, late Earl of Derby, and the Bishop
of Man : and there being a rent of 101l. 15s. 11d., parcel of
the late Queen's jointure, due from said Earl for the priory of
Rushen in the Isle of Man, it seems that for the convenience
of the [said] clergy an arrangement was made that the said
100l. per an. should be paid out of said rent of 101l. 15s. 11d.
and the said Earl to be discharged thereof by exchange of
acquittances with the [said] Receiver, which was accordingly
practised. By a certificate and affidavits of the said Earl's
agents they endeavour to make out that the said allowance was
duly paid to the [said] clergy till Mich., 1673. But, because
acquittances were not taken for some years from the Receiver
to that effect by reason of the neglect of persons trusted by
the said late Earl there is demanded of the present Earl
300l. 9s. 4d. pretended to be in arrear of the said rent to 1672.
Lady Day, on which demand said Earl has petitioned me for
stay of proceedings till the matter be determined. You are to
stay proceedings accordingly till I give order therein.

Report to the King from Treasurer Danby on the petition of
Major Nicholas Baily. In consideration of his services and
sufferings in the late times your Majesty granted him 3,600
acres of land in Louth, Ireland, which, after he had been at
great charges in gaining, and for some years in defending the
Crown's title in the Court of Claims, was by the Act of Settlement
given from him. Whereupon your Majesty and Council
designed him another thing for satisfaction, which, after long
soliciting, did also prove short of your Majesty's intentions
He now petitions for the reversion of the Honor of Penrith
after the Queen's death and after any leases in being. The
value hereof is computed at 2,500l., "which sum I am humbly
of opinion your Majesty may much better bestow upon him
out of the revenue in Ireland, to be paid in a year or two after
Xmas next, than to part with the reversion of the said Honor."
