The justices of Yorks to Treasurer Danby, dated from
Yorks in reply to his [of Feb. 24 last, ut supra,
p. 137], to Sir John Reresby and Sir Godfry Coply,
which was communicated to us at our meeting
at York. We conceive the order granted by the
said Justices and some others for re-delivery of
certain distresses made for smiths' forges in
Hallamshire was not contrary to law : [and
further] that smiths' forges are comprised within
the words blowing houses and consequently excused
from Hearth duty, and that the determination of
all differences arising about levying of money or
making distresses for Hearthmoney is finally to be
determined by one or more Justices of the Peace.
But as to the discouragement of officers we have
been so cautious that we have and always shall be
ready to assist them.

The Justices of Yorkshire to Treasurer Danby dated
from York in reply to his of Mar. 18 last, ut supra,
p. 159. Our delay in reply is due to the distance
of the gentlemen concerned who being now met,
we unanimously thank you for your obliging
remembrance of your countrymen and favourable
construction of our proceedings. As to smiths'
forges, after full and frequent debates, we have
considered the Attorney General's arguments, and
cannot bring ourselves to vary from our former
letter, and think ourselves bound to proceed
according to our judgments upon those statutes
whereof we understand ourselves the proper and
final judges in matters of difference concerning
distresses, and should readily consent to any other
way of trial were it not that we conceive it the
intention of the [Hearthmoney] Acts to prevent such
chargeable and vexatious suits upon the poorer
and most painful sort of people whereof we have
had already too sad experience in several parts of
this country [county].

Request to Mr. Bertie [secretary to Treasurer Danby]

the King by the Trustees of the late Queen Mother

Majesty's deer in Windsor Forest) of certain coppices
of underwood in the parish and manor of Chertsey
called Knowle Grove, and Fan Grove, of which
said Singleton took a lease in May, 1667, from the
Queen Mother. (Loose pages found in Warrants
