Page 98, Note B.—The Commission dated August 24, 1687, transferring Hawkins to Castle Baynard and Parsons to Portsoken which is referred to in this note as missing has been found at Guildhall a few hours after the last proof sheets of this work had been returned to the printer, having accidentally been separated from the other Commissions of a similar kind and so lost sight of. It fully confirms the suggestion made in the note as to the exchange of Wards between Parsons and Hawkins and the date at which it took place.
