Report to the King from Treasurer Danby on Francis
Tirwhit's case. I have, Jan. 28 last, referred the
examination thereof to Charles Bertie, Sir Charles
Harbord and John Lawrence and herewith submit
their report to your Majesty.
Prefixing : report dated Mar. 20 from said Bertie,
et al. to Treasurer Danby on said Tirwhit's case.
William late Lord Willoughby of Parham by writing
under his seal dated Barbados 1668, Aug. 27 (reciting
that whereas there was a large account depending
between his then late brother Francis, Lord Willoughby,
and the said Francis Tirwhit who was
employed by the said Francis, Lord Willoughby, in
the capacity of deputy Treasurer of his Majesty's
Customs in the island of Barbados and in many
other affairs relating to his Majesty and the said
Francis, Lord Willoughby, and that he was willing
and desirous to have the said account clearly stated
to the end said Tirwhit might receive satisfaction
for what was justly due to him) did appoint William
Sharp, Esq., John Knight and Richard Parker,
merchants, to examine and report thereon. The said
referees by their report dated 1678 [sic ? for 1668],
Sept. 12, to said William, late Lord Willoughby, found
that by said Tirwhit's oath and that of George Tirwhit,
gent., his brother, and by orders under the hand of
said Francis, Lord Willoughby, there was due to said
Francis Tirwhit 672,484½lb. of Muscovado sugar, of
which 458,872lb. was disbursed for his Majesty's
service by order of said Francis, Lord Willoughby.
We desired the Earl of Ranelagh (who married one
of the daughters of the said Francis, Lord Willoughby),
to send some agent or solicitor to us to say
what he should think fit on behalf of his Lordship
and Lord Brereton touching said matter. By his
letter of the 1st inst. said Earl of Ranelagh informed
us that when the reference was made [from the King
in Council to Treasurer Danby] there were no letters
of administration granted to Lord Francis Willoughby's
estate, but that he hath since taken out
letters of administration thereof and is advised by his
Counsel that he cannot easily make any payment or
submit to any arbitration without being thereunto
enjoined by law and therefore (though he would
with all willingness submit the greatest part of his
own concerns to your [Danby's] judgment) yet
being in this to act only as an administrator, and
Mr. Tirwhit having already served him with process
to answer his bill in Chancery, he must desire to be
left to law, with the assurance that he will be ready
(so far as he shall [as administrator] receive effects)
to satisfy all demands which Tirwhit can legally
make out. To this Tirwhit makes answer that said
Earl of Ranelagh has only been served with process
returnable next term to answer a bill then intended
to be exhibited against him by said Tirwhit to be
relieved touching the 213,612lbs. of Muscovado
sugar disbursed upon Lord Francis Willoughby's
own account and not for any part of the 458,872lbs.
of sugar disbursed for his Majesty's service for which
[latter] he depends upon his Majesty's justice for
satisfaction (according to the said order in Council)
"out of moneys payable by the said privy seal"
as in said Tirwhit's petition.

Same to the Clerk of the Signet for a privy seal as
follows concerning the accounts and discharge of
Sir William Warren of Wapping, co. Middlesex.
Said Warren did for several years last past furnish
divers stores to the Navy, and was employed and
intrusted by the Navy Commissioners as an agent
or factor for buying of several naval stores and provisions
and for hiring and taking to freight several
ships to be employed for his Majesty's service :
for which purposes several great sums of money
were imprested to him by the Navy Commissioners
when he made contracts for delivering such stores
and provisions at rates agreed on by the said Commissioners
and also when they employed him to
provide such goods for the King's service "and upon
our [the King's] adventure" : and in particular said
Warren received several imprest bills charged upon
the Treasurer of the Navy and others, viz., one bill
dated 1664, July 21, for 1,000l. upon contract made
with him by the Navy Commissioners for several
ships' lading of Gottenburg masts for the use of the
Navy ; another bill dated 1664, Aug. 16, for 600l.
upon a contract for several ships' loading of New
England masts and bow sprits ; another bill
dated 1664, Dec. 13, for 3,000l. for Gottenb rg
masts delivered into the stores at Deptford and
Woolwich ; another bill dated 1664, Oct. 27, for
2,500l. for provisions to be made for the King's
service ; another bill dated 1664, Nov. 10, for
2,500l. for the like ; another bill dated 1664, Dec. 1,
for 900l. upon a like account ; another bill dated
1664, Dec. 8, for 3,000l. upon the like account ;
another bill dated 1665, April 11, for 4,000l. upon
contract for 3,000 loads of oak timber for the
stores ; another bill dated 1665, July 15, for 1,000l.
upon accompt of 3 ships' loading of deals delivered
at Chatham, Woolwich and Deptford ; another
bill dated 1665, Sept. 9, for 4,000l. upon account
for 8 ships' loading of Gottenburg masts and other
provisions ; another bill dated 1665, Dec. 5, for
10,000l. upon accompt of 855 masts and other
masts and provisions bought and to be bought at
Gottenburg for the King's service ; another bill
dated 1666, Nov. 8, upon account of freight upon
a ship loading of hemp delivered into the stores at
Deptford and insuring the same from Hamburg ;
another bill dated 1666, Dec. 22, for 3,500l. upon
account for freight of 2 ships' loading and other
provisions delivered into the stores and insuring
the same from Hamburg and for customs ; another
bill dated 1667, April 11. for 750l. for victualling
of ships to fetch masts from New England ; another
bill dated 1667, Nov. 9, for 600l. for seamen's wages
for bringing masts from New England on board the
Duke of York. All said bills were made good and
the moneys thereon paid to him by the Treasurer of
the Navy except the bill of 1666, Nov. 8, for 1,000l.
and that of 1666, Dec. 22, for 3,500l., both which
bills have been delivered back to the Navy Commissioners.
The abovesaid bills of imprest have
not been cleared by said Warren before the Navy
Commissioners and consequently the sums therein
have, in the Navy Treasurer's accounts, been set
in super on said Warren, who ought therefore to render
an account in the Exchequer for the same. Further
the King, at the suit of the Duke of Monmouth, and
of Edward Visct. Latimer, did by the privy seal of
1676, Nov. 15, grant to them without account all
moneys owing to the King by said Warren on such
imprests from 1664, July 21, to 1667-8, Mar. 24.
In pursuance thereof the said Duke of Monmouth
and Visct. Latimer did in Hilary term next after
the date of the said privy seal exhibit an information
in the Exchequer by the Attorney General
against said Warren for an account of the above
imprests as well as to discover several breaches of
trust wherewith he was in said information charged
in bringing several sums of money to account for to
be allowed to him for goods bought and provisions
made by him and freight and other matters wherein
he was intrusted by the Navy Board which were
not by him expended accordingly and ought not
to be allowed unto him. Whereupon the said
Warren has since made up and balanced the account
of the said imprests and matters above with the
said Duke of Monmouth and Visct. Latimer and
hath otherwise given them full satisfaction in all the
particulars charged upon him and hath paid them
the sum of 6,578l. 14s. 7d. being the full balance
of the said accounts and hath their discharge for
the same. Therefore, upon the petition of said
Warren and at the request of said Duke of Monmouth
("our dear son") and Visct. Latimer the
King hereby acquits, releases and discharges said
Warren, his heirs, &c., and his and their goods and
estate, &c., from all charges relative to the above
from 1664, July 21, to 1667-8, Mar. 24, and from all
Exchequer proceedings, &c., thereon.

Report from Treasurer Danby to the King on the

Your Majesty granted to William Coward, Esq.
(Recorder of Wells), the place of a Commissioner of
Appeals in Excise as in trust for and for the life of
Sir Francis Doddington and the same [grant] was
continued to John Doddington, son and heir of said
Sir Francis, who [John] dying in some short time
after, both the petitioner [as John's widow] and
Lady Doddington, relict of Sir Francis in behalf of
her son, became petitioners to the King for the profit
of said place, which being referred to me 1677 [sic]
Jan. 25, I reported stating the pretences of each of
them and that said office was in your Majesty's
dispose. Whereupon your Majesty determined
the same in favour of the present petitioner and her
children, in regard the consequence of the sufferings
of Sir Francis for his loyalty had fallen on the
posterity and estate of said John which [estate] is
now reduced to 300l. per an. and clogg'd with considerable
debts and very little provision made for
5 younger children. Thereupon your Majesty ordered
Coward to account to petitioner for the profits and
petitioner enjoyed same till 19 months since when
the Commission for Appeals in Excise coming to
be renewed your Majesty directed inter al. said
Coward's name to be left out. Petitioner's family
have been great sufferers for your Majesty and they
are nothing amended in their sad condition. I
present them to your Majesty as fit objects of
bounty for some person in trust for them to be
added to the said Commission with the former
salary of 200l. per an.

Report from same to the King on the report from

of the King in Council dated 1678, Dec. 18, said
letter being on behalf of William Robinson, Esq.,
Inginer [Engineer] and Director General of all the
King's fortifications and buildings in Ireland. The

Charles Bertie to [? the Excise Farmers]. I am
extremely surprised to find by Mr. Kingdon that the
13,000l. directed to be paid to him is not paid by
you ; and the rather because Mr. Noell being with
me last night told me that you agreed to pay it.
His Majesty's affairs require the speedy despatch of
it ; which Treasurer Danby has commanded me to
signify again unto you, desiring you will immediately
pay it that his Majesty's service may not suffer by
the delay thereof.

of 1675-6, Feb. 17 [under Sir Henry Newton] of
the Guards and Garrisons, all such moneys as he hath
paid or shall pay by virtue of any warrants signed
by the King, although the said warrants do not
express the use or service mentioned in the privy
seals whereby moneys were issued to said Kingdon :
and further to grant to said Kingdon that he shall
not be accomptable for any moneys that he hath
received or shall receive of the King's otherways
than as aforesaid, and that he accompting as aforesaid
shall be discharged of all moneys received or to be
received by him by virtue of any the aforesaid privy
seals : all by reason that said Kingdon has paid
moneys (issued to him by several privy seals in
accordance with the abovesaid privy seal of 1675-6,
Feb. 17) [on the authority of and] according to
warrants signed by the King not expressing the
services or uses expressed in the said privy seal of

virtue of which such moneys were issued to him, so
that a doubt may arise whether same shall be duly
allowed him in account.

Same to same for a same for interest to be paid to
Sir John James and Robert Huntington as follows.
The King has heretofore agreed that said James and
Huntington "should have the receipt of our revenue
of Excise and 2,000l. a week out of the Customs
towards the payment of our Forces and supply
of our Cofferer of our Household, in consideration
whereof and of such salaries, poundage
and fees as Sir Stephen Fox had, they were to
advance money for payment of our Forces at
5 per cent. and to advance moneys for our Household
not exceeding 3,000l. per mensem at 6 per cent. ;
which moneys were to be repaid by tallies struck on
the revenue of our Excise. And it was further on
our behalf agreed that the said tallies should be
preferred in payment before any other tallies of the
same date, and that no tally should be struck on
the said revenue besides [other than] those then
settled for quarterly [Excise Farm rent] payments
and goldsmiths' interest and such other interest as
was directed to be allowed by an order in Council
dated 9th Feb., 1676-7. And whereas afterwards
by an Act of Parliament the said Sir John James
and Major Huntington were obliged to pay a fifth
part of the said Excise into the Exchequer, whereby
their [security] fund was diminished contrary to our
said agreement and the charge of our Forces much
increased [by the new raised Forces], whereby the
said Sir John James and Major Huntington have
been enforced from time to time to advance money for
the uses aforesaid to the value of the said fifth part
of the Excise more than at first was agreed and for
raising of which they were forced to be at great
charges by paying excessive interest and procuration
to at least 10 per cent. : and we being willing that
none of our subjects should be loosers by their
faithfull and diligent applying themselves to our
service, especially their extraordinary charges being
occasioned by breach of the agreement on our part."
Therefore hereby payment is to be made to them or
tallies struck on the Excise for them for 6 per cent.
interest and 4 per cent. gratuity per an. for so much
money as hath been or shall be advanced by them
till the repayment thereof upon their [final] accompt
to be stated by one of the Auditors.
