the said fee farmers of the sum of 20l. 14s. 3½d.
per an. for the fees of the Ranger and keepers
of the forest and park of Feckenham, and the

purchased [outright]. George Lea, a collector
of certain of the King's rents in co. Worcester,
has lately levied and received of Lord Coventry
the present fee farmer of the manor and park of
Feckenham the said yearly sum of 20l. 14s. 3½d.,
and the arrears thereof from the Restoration or
a great part thereof, and has not accompted for same.
He is hereby ordered with all speed before the
end of the present Michaelmas term to appear before
you and accompt for same and to pay what is due
upon his accompt to the Receiver of the county.
You are to take care hereof and advertise me herein
that he may be sent for by a messenger if he delay.
