BY A. GIBBONS, F.S.A. [(Printed for (Private Circulation^ UinCOln : JAMES WILLIAMSON, 290 HIGH STREET. l8qi. LINCOLN : JAMES WILLIAMSON, PRINTER, HIGH STREET. l^uha. THE Ancient Records of this Diocese have hitherto been practically inaccessible, having been scattered about in at least three different Registries, viz., those at Ely House in London, the Consistory Court in Great St. Mary's Church at Cambridge, and the Palace and Diocesan Registry at Ely. All these documents the Bishop has now caused to be removed to the Palace at Ely, where he has provided and fitted up a large Muniment Room in Bishop Alcock's Tower for their reception; at the same time causing them to be completely arranged, so as to be available for the research which their historical importance deserves. And the present volume is the outcome of this arrangement. VI Ely Episcopal Records. The Bishops of Ely had until recently a temporal jurisdiction second only in importance to that of the Bishops of Durham ; and the consequence is that their Muniment Room contains, in addition to the ordinary records of diocesan business, a great mass of ancient documents relating to this temporal jurisdic- tion, both civil and criminal, such as Assize and Plea Rolls, &c., which for other Dioceses are to be found (if at all) only at the Public Record Office in London. The Ecclesiastical Records comprise the usual contents of a Diocesan Registry, — the Visitation Books and the Transcripts of Parish Registers for the old diocese being in unusually good preservation. Special attention has been paid to the arrangement of the latter according to parishes, so that they may be available to the Clergy for supplying the parts missing (alas ! too often) in the Parochial Registers themselves. The Episcopal Registers commence in 1337, and a rough calendar of their contents is given in the present volume, as well as a Preface. vii careful abstract of the Marriage Dispensations, the Indiilgences(which are especiallyinteresting in this series of Registers), and any other matters likely to be useful for local history. All the Wills occurring in the Registers have been transcribed /// extenso. Room has also been found for a portion of the unusually good series of Marriage Licences existing here ; and for a Transcript of the Marriage Register of the Old Chapel at Ely House, Holborn. In short, the volume is intended to comprise an Account of the whole Series of Records, — Ecclesiastical, Civil, and Criminal, — illustrated by Abstracts and Transcripts calling attention to the chief matters of interest occurring throughout them. In the Appendix an account is given of various Records and MSS. in the Public Record Office, the British Museum, and at Lambeth, relating to the old Diocese of Ely. I desire to take this opportunity of acknow- ledging my indebtedness to Mr. Williamson, the Publisher, for the accurate and painstaking viii Ely Episcopal Records. manner in which he has performed his share of the work ; but for this, the labour (in any case not inconsiderable) of seeing through the press a volume so full of names and dates would have been very greatly increased. It need scarcely be added that any praise which the work, as a whole, may deserve, must be given to the Bishop. The blame for any faultiness in its execution is mine alone. A. G. ^SubscribetB' ^mnzB.

In 1823 there is a Petition for Non-residence from the Rector of Doddington on account of the dampness and unhealthiness of the climate, the extreme lowness of the situation, and the consequent illness of Petitioner's children. The duties are performed by his curate, who has a yearly stipend of one hundred and fifty pounds and a house. The gross annual value of the said Rectory exceeds five thousand pounds.

Also the names and colleges of persons ordained 1561, 1563-X570, 1574-1581, and their subscriptions to the Articles and Book of Common Prayer, serving as a kind of Index to the Examinations. Taking 1 560-1 as a specimen, the number of candidates was 68, of whom 2 were respited to the Bishop and 7 rejected, including a B.A. and Fellow of Queen's College, Cambridge. Several others were respited, but appear afterwards to have been admitted. In the later years the proportion of candidates refused seems, from a cursory examination of the book, to have been much greater. The " Interrogatoryes niinisteryd to all suche as myndethe to Receyve hollye orders " were as follows : — 1. ffyrst what is his name. 2. The second what age he is of. 3. The Thyrd wher his abydinge is. 4. The fourth whether his conversacyon be good and honest. 5. The fyfte whether he cane Rede well or no. 6. The syxte whether he cane wryte. 7.

The Oaths of Supremacy and Allegiance, obedience to the Bishop, and Residence, and against Simony, are set out at the beginning of the Book.

On almost the last page is the following : — " Md. to know Mr. Chancello'^ his pleas'" for order to be takyn for keepyng playes dawnsynges and maye gaymes in churches and churche yeardes upon pretense to advauntage and proffyt the churche by the same." Archdeacon of Ely's Visitation, 1539. Contains little besides lists of clergy and churchwardens : and a few notices of wants of repair of churches, &c. " This volume furnishes us with a report of the condition of the "Archdeaconry three years after the suppression of the smaller "Religious Houses and during the year when the Act of the Six " Articles was passed. Thomas Thirlby was at this time Archdeacon " of Ely, the same who afterwards became successively Bishop of " Westminster, Norwich, and Ely. The book deserves to be "examined with much more care and patience than could be " bestowed upon it in the time at my disposal." [Hist. MSS. Comm. Report.] Visitation Book of Bishop Thirlby, 1549- 1552, and of Bishop Cox, 1561. Contains the Cojnperta, and some very curious cases of public penance, &c. " We have here a minute account of the condition of the Parish "Churches throughout the Diocese and a curious body of evidence "regarding the attitude of the people in this part of England three "years after the death of Queen Mary, which obviously possess " something more than a merely antiquarian interest. From these " returns it is clear that the enactments for defacing the churches, "and even those for enforcing uniformity of ritual had not been " attended to generally nor generally carried into effect. There had " been a widespread reluctance to destroy the Holy Water stoups " in the church porches, and to daub over the walls of the churches Ely Episcopal Records. 37 B 2 VISITATION BOOKS {continued). "with whitewash. The frescoes in many instances are reported as "still remaining intact. There was a great deficiency of Anglican "service books ; the homilies are so frequently noticed as not to be " found, that it would appear they were held in dislike. In many " churches there was not even a Bible. There are frequent com- " plaints that no Parish Register Book had been provided. In "many Parishes there was no preaching and nothing in its place. " At Stanton St. Michael's there was no pulpit ; at Orwell we read " ' the Crucifixorium remaineth in statu quo prius ' ; at St. Botolph's " Church, Cambridge, there was not even a chalice. Such a picture " of the condition of an English Diocese at this period I have not " met with elsewhere, and a much more extended and careful examin- "ation of these Comperta than I could afford to give to them could "hardly fail to repay a competent student."

" It contains the usual complete lists of clergy, schoolmasters, "churchwardens, and other officials of every Parish, with the "Presentments and Comperta arranged according to the several " Deaneries. The impression left upon me by a rapid comparison • "of this Book with the Visitation of 1561, was that the defacement " of the Parish Churches recommended in the earlier volume had "been generally carried out in the interval, but that the moral "condition of the people had by no means inlproved." [Hist. MSS. Comm. Report.] Visitatio et Acta Officii, 1565- 1566. Almost at the end is the following examination : — Eliz.

Visitation Book of William Gager, LL.D., acting as Vicar-General, first of Bishop Heton, during the last few months of his episcopate, and next of Bishop Andrewes during his first year. At the end is a loose paper list of excommunicated persons to be read in churches, i6io. "The record begins abruptly on the 9 Jany. 1608-9; the latest "entry belongs to 16 10. The Visitation, which was spread over a " period of more than a year, was carried on in St. Mary's Church, " in Cambridge, on successive Mondays from week to week. An "entry of the 17th July 1609 notes that Bishop Heton died at "Mildenhall, and apparently suddenly, in adibus Mag^ Jacobi " Weston Ar., a fact which has not I think been mentioned else- Ely Episcopal Records. 41 B 2 VISITATION BOOKS {continued). "where. At this point the visitation is interrupted and is not "resumed till 27th Nov., 1609, when Dr. Gager resumes it as " Commissary of Jiishop Andrevves. Some of the reports in this "volume may instructively be compared with the co?iiper(a of half " a century earlier, and indicate the change of feeling and habits "that had come upon the villagers. Thus it appears that the old "strictness in observance of festivals and saints' days was disap- "pearing, though the attempt was still made to enforce the "anticjuated customs. J\i Baburgh Ralph Shirte, gentleman, is "presented for fetching home a chaldron of coals on St. Luke's "day; at Barrington, Edward Prior is reported for carting on "Michaelmas day; at Duxford, John Willows for doing the like on "the feast of St Simon and St. Jude, and the same offences arc "presented again and again elsewhere as worthy of censure. "The presentments for sleeping in Church arc frequent, and "the complaints of brawling and actually fighting during divine " service are not rare. At Balsham two men are " named upon a "common fame to be of the Family of Love." At Cottenham, "Richard Coverley taketh upon him to be a cunning man, being " neither Physician nor Chirurgeon to him divers "do resort as to a cunning man or wizard. At Dallingham there "appear to have been great disturbances in consequence of the " Churchwardens having apportioned the seats in the Church " according to their own notion of what was fitting. At St. Edward's, "Cambridge, Robert Throckmorton, gent, is presented ' for that " contrary to the canons he doth leave his parish Church of St. " Edward's to which his house doth belong, and doth go to Benet " Church to hear divine service.' At Over, Ezra Purkiss, the school "master, 'not being in any orders at all,' had for some time been " conducting the service in the Church, preaching twice on Sundays, "burying the dead and churching women, &c., and to all appear- "ances might have gone on [)osing as a clergyman but that 'in "reading the collects he did in one of them leave out this word ^^ Bishop and instead thereof did read this viord. pastor or pastors.' " At Waterbeach Henry Greeley, the parish clerk, had been acting " nearly in the same way in the absence of the Vicar, who appears "to have connived at the proceedings. Complaints against the " clergy are very seldom made, though it would be difficult to say "what misconduct was not thought sufficient to form the subject of "presentment at these visitations." [Hist.

"Navenby, 13 Aug. 1785. " My good and much Honour 'd Friend, " Your favour did not find me till this morning, being missent, " (as they write upon it,) to Boston. " You will please to recolect it is near 35 years since the event " you mention took place ; my memory therefore may be a little " treacherous, and if I digress into minutiae, or evenfabulcB aniles, " as you desire all particulars, you'll laugh at the old man. " When the Auditor's place became vacant, I waited upon Dean " AUix and those of the Prebendaries with whom I thought I could "safely take that liberty. I met with much civility from all, but " none promised me except Mr. Butts and my Father ; the Dean, " who was the best friend I ever had in my life, told me most " freely, that his regard for and connexions with Mr. Watkins were Ely Episcopal Records. 59 O 4 APPEALS {continued), " such that he could by no means refuse him his support. In this " state matters rested till the meeting of the Body in November, " and the number were five, — the Dean, Mr. Harvey, Dr. Green, " Dr. Price, and my Father. The morning they were to meet upon " Business, my Father told me the vacancy had been mentioned " the evening before, and he found the Dean was against me, that " nothing was said in favour of me by anyone, and that Mr. Butts "was not come ; he therefore advised me to desist proceeding any " farther. I accordingly went to the Deanery to signify that to the " Dean as my design, and in the little Court I met Mr. Harvey, who " asked my Business. I told him. He said he insisted I should " not desist, that his intention was all along to serve me, that Mr. " Butts as he promised would no doubt come, and he IjeUeved I " had other friends ; if not I should at all events proceed : and that " the choice would be in the after-noon. Upon this encouragement " I returned and told my Father, who acquiesced. However I was "still uneasy, and waited upon the Dean and told him how things "stood, and moreover rather than offend him by persisting I would "resign all pretentions. He very friendly and politely beg'd I " would not have a moment's care about him ; he should not be " the least displeased ; not that he thought that I had any chance, " as he was persuaded that Mr. Butts would not come. In this " situation I waited till Dinner ( — in those good Days we Dined at " one o'clock — ) No Butts ! I then in my own mind gave up all " for lost, and as I was going to the Deanery by invitation to Dine, " upon the Dean's walk I met Dr. Price, who very good naturedly " ask'd me how I went on. I told him I did not go on at all, that " all was over with me ; my Friend Mr. Butts was not come. He " said, * why don't you take your Horse and go to him ? I know he "is at Snailwell.' I replied, 'It is too late; the election was to be "in the afternoon.' He laugh'd, and said, 'I shall voat against " you, but get away directly. I'll take care the Election shall be " put off till tomorrow morning.' I went immediately and found " Mr. Butts with a house full of company ; he seem'd much sur- " prised, but very pleased to see me, and affected totally to have " forgot the Chapter time. I told him it was not then too late to " serve me, and I hoped he would, as the Election was not to be " till the next morning. He assured me he would, and came to " Ely accordingly. What follows I had from my Father. That the " Dean, Dr. Green, and Dr. Price voted for Mr. Watkins ; Mr. " Harvey, Mr. Butts [? and my Father for me]. The choice then " rested upon the Dean's casting vote, who very kindly said that I " had behaved through the whole business, with such respect to " him and modest propriety, that he could not take the advantage 6o Ely Episcopal Records. C 4 APPEALS {contimied). "of the casting vote; upon which Dr. Green immediately said, "then he would go over and vote for me, which he accordingly " did, and I was appointed your unworthy Auditor. " I write this rather in hast to save the Post. I imagine you " may have heard I've lost my eldest daughter since I had the " pleasure of seeing you, and am in great fears for my son.

Mr. Cole says about this volume : — " Registrum Consistoriale Eliense. The following curious book was lent to me Oct. 27, 1768, by the Rev. Mr. Sam. Peck, Fellow of Trinity College in Cambridge, Vicar of Trumpington and late Deputy Chancellor of the Diocese of Ely under Dr. Wharton Peck, who resides wholly at Norwich. Mr. Peck bought it at a grocer's in Cambridge for waste paper at the pound weight together with 40 or 50 other books all belonging to the Registrary of Ely which were so sold by Mr. Day the Town Clerk of Cambridge, executor to the late Mr. Higgins, who shot himself about 2 years ago, and was Deputy Registrar to Chas.

" As might be expected the contents of the volume for the most "part deal with matters of routine; occasionally, however, docu- " ments of great interest occur, and notably so among the letters " which refer to the elections of Proctors to serve in the ecclesias- " tical assemblies, and the frequent correspondence concerning the " Diocesan Synods held twice a year in the Diocese.

' BAILIFFS' ROLLS, RENTALS AND ACCOUNTS.* » " Hardly less numerous than the Court Rolls are the Bailiffs' accounts of the Episcopal " Estates from the beginning of the 14th century downwards. Among these, as falling under the •' same class, may be included the Rent Rolls, one or two manorial extents, balance sheets of " the surveyors of the great dykes and drains and other stray papers more or less connected with " the finances and revenues of the Bishop. One roll of the custosfossatorum for the 1st year of " Henry V. enters rather minutely into details regarding the system of drainage then existing " and which had been in operation for centuries before. A Rent Roll of 4 H. IV. gives us what " may almost be called a Commercial Directory for the town of "Wisbech for this year, and it " would be interesting to compare this with another and equally elaborate Halimote Roll of " the 7th H. VIII., which again furnishes us with a list of all the householders and their several " occupations just a century after the date of the earlier document. The Bailiffs' accounts, " however, would prove on examination to be the richest mine of information on almost all " matters that concern our social history and the habits of life of the people. Thus we may " note that the interchange of letters from time to time was much more frequent than we should "have expected to find. In the 20th year of Edward III. a busy correspondence was kept up " between the Bailiff of Wisbech and Edmund de Qonville, the first founder of Catus College. " Gonville was at this time Commissioner of Marshlands, in the Isle of Ely, but resided, as " appears from this acconnt, at Rushworth, in Norfolk, where he had founded and endowed a " College of priests in 1342. The letters from Wisbech to Rushworth are always charged for " in terms of the day's labour for which the manorial tenants were liable, six opera for the " journey to and fro, three opera where no answer seems to have been returned. From another " account two years later we get the money equivalent for these charges by finding the wfiter's " day's work set down as standing for a halfpenny. In this latter account, too, we find that in " the Barton of Wisbech a practice prevailed of selling the feudal services " in gross " year by " year ; and in this year 1348 (i.e., the year before the Black Death) the whole amount received " under this head was 81. Us. 2^(1, Seventy-five years later (lo H. IV.) the sale of services in " the same manor brought in 101. Illustrations of the severity of the plague in Cambridgeshire " are frequently to be met with. At Barton we learn that no less than 352 acres escheated to " the lord, and that 62 acres remained unlet, causa peslilentice. From the frequent mention of " boats and boat hire it would seem that the ordinary " sewers " through the fens were used '• as canals and were the highways from place to place, the saturated fen land not being fur- " nished with roads along which much traffic could be carried on. The sea evidently came " much nearer to the town of Wisbech in the 14th century than it does now ; the smaller cetacea " seem frequently to have been cast ashore in the shallows of the Wash ; when canght they " were salted and packed in barrels to be consumed as food, and the capture of a grampus, "porpoise, or even"unius piscis vocati sele" was welcomed as cheerfully as the occasional "netting of a sturgeon. These Bailiffs' accounts are of great length, the rolls frequently " extend to six or seven feet, and are usually written on both sides of the vellum. The series is " so large that they could not but prove a very valuable apparatus for a student desiring to "pursue researches into the daily habits, means of liveUhood, and devices for getting a " precarious sustenance out of the land in a district which, in these early times, must have been " very uninviting to any but such as had been born and bred on the soil they were attached " to."

Now, Hngh Balsham was Bishop from 1257 to 1286, so that Edward 3 is clearly an error. Some one has written Honry above Edward in a modern hand, but the true date would seem to be about 8 or 9 Ed. 1.

' Item in stipendiis " Clerici huius compoti cum pergameno pro eodem iijs. ivci.' " Most of the houses and shops in Holborn and Fleet Street had gardens attached to them " but the Bishop's own garden appears to have been let about the beginning of the reign of " Richard II., and together with the vineyard and some pasture land adjoining brought in a " rent of 60s. a year, a considerable rent for a yearly tenant to pay at this time. It is well "known, as the late Mr. Riley pointed out eighteen years ago (Hist. MSS. 1st Report, App., " p. 89), that the notices we get of English Horticulture in the middle ages are not often to be " met with. I was therefore very glad to find among these Holborn rolls a stray gardener's "account for the last eight months of the Episcopate of Bp. John Barnet, i.e., from Michaelmas " 1372 to 7 June 1373, when the Bp. died. At this time the Bishop's gardener was one Adam " Vynor, who calls himself ' Ortolanus d'ni Episcopi.' Among the receipts are to be found " amounts from the sale of onions, garlic, lekes, parseley, hyssop, savoury [Winter's Talel.-IV.], " peas and beans? [de/abis et siliquis}, and cabbages [olera]. "69*. \\d. is charged for men and women digging in the vineyard 'ac etiam pro mails " herbis in curtilagio purgandis et extrahendis,' and a payment of 3*. \Qd. is entered for tithes " paid to the Rector of St. Andrew's, Holborn, ' pro decima pasture magni gardini.' '' (Hist. MSS. Comm. Report.) X Some one has marked this " A° 1406" in an old hand, but the date seems to be as above This Roll contains a list of about 130 tenants. 96 Ely Episcopal Records.

Mr. James Wyatt's Report on the State of Ely Cathedral, and Estimates for its Restoration. The Report pays great attention to an ivy tree in the Deanery garden as the cause of much mischief. Also to the clock, for which he recommends dials to be placed in the west, north, and south sides of the West Tower, in the tier of windows immediately above the roof of the nave ; and that for the five bells then in the tower one should be substituted which " might serve for the clock and every other purpose of the church either by tolling it or striking it with a hammer or clapper by a cord brought down within the present lumber room." . ..." If the bell were placed lower the tower must be closed where an octagon opening ought to be left, and that would shut out from the view below a very beautiful part of the Saxon Tower, rich with columns and arches," &c. Mr. Wyatt also recommends the Organ Loft to be removed " down to the great legs of the Lanthorn," and thinks the lead of the roof would fetch about ;^3,ooo, and the roof itself might be repaired for ;!{^i,20o or ^1,500. 112 Ely Episcopal Records.

These are the Rolls of the proceedings in the civil and criminal business at the Assizes for the Isle of Ely, which were held at Ely and Wisbech alternately. The Plea Rolls include the proceedings in all actions tried at the Assizes, and generally the same classes of matters as are found in the Plea Rolls of the Courts at Westminster, as well as Fines or Final Concords on the transfer of land, and some other matters which occupy separate Rolls in the Westminster Courts. The Gaol Dehvery Rolls include the proceedings in the criminal business of the Assizes. There are separate Calendars or Docket Books of some, but only a few of the Rolls. These will be found mentioned in their place. The following account of the trial of a witch is taken at random from one of these Rolls — that of 1647 : — " The Information of Gillion Salter of Stretham taken upon oth before Thos. Castell Esqr. the 30th day of May 1647. " Whoe saith that abort 7 yeares since that hir daughter Marie Salter the elder and Marie Salter the yonger daughter to Tho. Salter weare much tormented and evell handled in there bodyes Marie Salter being taken lame and had great tormenting fittes and Marie the daughter of the said Marie was so grevusly handled that when hir fitt came upon hir this Informant had much adoe to hold the said Marie in hir armes shee being but an yeare and a quarter old and that in the extremitie of the said Marie's ffitt was so violent upon hir that the mouth of the said child would be drawen to the eare in such a fearefull manner that it did affright the beholders to see and this miserie the said Marie did lie in for the space of a quarter of a yeare and so died w<=^ this Inform* doth verilie beleave was the act of Dorothy Ellis.

" Whoe saith that shee being in the shope of Mihill Malen having hir child in hir Armes there came into the sd. shope Dorethy Ellis for halpeniworth of salt the said Dorethy laying the hand upon the child's cheeke mumled certaine words to hir selfe and presently after the departure of the said Dorethy Ellis had on of her child's eye fell a running and when this Inform* came home and about ten of the clocke in the night her child fell shreekinge out and would not sucke w*^ that this Inform* rose and did light a candell and looke upon hir child and did fynd that the side that Dorethy Ellis toucht all swelld and on of her child eyes out w''^ act this Informan* conceaveth was done by Dorethy Ellis. ALICE X WADE hir marke." " The examination of Dorithy Ellis taken before Tho. Castell Esqr. the 30th day of May 1647. " Whoe saith that about thirtie yeares since shee being much troubled in her minde there appeared unto hir the Devell in the liknes of a great catt and speak unto this ex* and demanded of hir hir blood y^^^ she gave hime after which the spirit in the liknes of a catt suck upon the body of this ex* and the first thing that this ex* commanded her spirit to doe was to goe and be witch 4 of the cattell of Tho.

Salter of Stretham which spirit forthwith kild the child of the said Marie and also this ex* confesseth she commanded hir spirit to lame the mother of the said child old Marie Salter which was done accordingly and that she commanded hir spirit to goe and be witch and lame John Gotobed because he cald this ex* old witch and flung stones att this ex* all w"'^ command was performed by hir spirit and the said Gotobed lamed. DORETHY X ELLIS hir marke." A certain Matthew Ellis, of Stretham, seemed also to be in trouble at the same Assizes, for being concerned in stealing corn from Wm. Townson, senr., yeoman. At the same Assizes several other persons (Adam Sabie, of Haddenham, Tho. Pie, of Ely, &c.) were also charged with witch- craft, some of whom confessed various extraordinary things, but one, Robert Ellis, of Stretham (probably a relative of Dorothy) " saith that he would not confess hime selfe to be a witch though they puld hime a peeces w*^ wild horses. ROBT X ELLIS his marke." H 114 Ely Episcopal Records. E I PLEA ROLLS AND GAOL DELIVERY ROLLS {continued). Religious prosecutions too were frequent. " Thos. DawUing of Wisbech deposes that about the tyme when Collonell John Lambert escaped out of the Tower of London he was in company w*^ John Neale the younger of Wisbech at the house of one Wm. ffisher when and where the said John Neale did use some invective and disgraceful words and speeches against the Minister and Clergy of this Relme of England affirming that ere long the Annabaptistes would come and preach in our Pulpittes and that the nation were Annabaptistes, &c., and further that ' Chas. Stuart (meaning the now king's ma**^) is a bastard and the seede of a bastard/ &c." Bets appear to have been made on the King's chance of restor- ation, for the same John Neale is accused by another witness of having offered to lay wagers w*'^ this inform* and severall other persons then present to give them greater sumes of money for lesser when Charles Stuart (as he then called him) sh'^ be pro- claimed King of England. Upon the prosecution of a man for stealing lead and glass from Ely Cathedral one witness says, " Upon his oth that Doctor R"* Stone, W"" Tanner, and W" Gotobed sold this Inform* as much lead as he p<^ eight pounds for wh. was the lead that was taken of the Cath^ Ch. of Ely and wayed ten hunndred and thre quarters." At the Restoration too there are frequent prosecutions of the party out of power. Henry Ferrom Esq. appears to have been a particularly active justice in committing disloyal persons. Francis Mussen of Wisbech cordwayner is informed against by a customer who was in his shop and happened to speake of the King's Coronacon and thereupon the said Mussen did speake these factious and unreverent words of His Ma*^^ to witt " If ever there were a King crowned in England he sh M (and Curia pedis pulveris) 4 17,18 j> » >j j> 15 19 )> )) J, ,> Some of them headed "Tent' in Toloneo" (and Curia pedis pulveris) 9 20 j> » (and Court Lete) 8 21, 22 )> )) i> 9 23, 24 )> ), >> 19 25, 26 II >» j> 17 27,28 ;j » >» 22 29,30 ,> » s» 24 A bundle of 10 Rolls, containing 151 skins, 1 452- 1 499.

In so large a mass of documents it would be very rash to hazard a guess at what may not be foiyid, but I was surprised and disappointed to come upon no notice concerned with the doings or sufferings of the Recusant gentry and R. Catholic Priests who were confined in the castle of Wisbech during the latter half of Queen Elizabeth's reigu. It is diflScult to believe that a more careful search into this collection of muniments would fail to bring oat some fresh light upon the very interesting subject of the treatment which the Recusants received and the severity of their long imprisonment. In the next century again, during the interregnum, it is noticeable that the sessions continued to be held with monotonous regularity, but very soon after the Restoration at the Sessions held in Ely 18 April 1661 we meet with indications that the reinstating of Bishop Wren into his bishopric and his return to his diocese was speedily followed by a vigorous attempt to revive the old church discipline, and the old strictness which had proved so disastrous twenty years before ; and accordingly among the presentments of the Grand Jury, 15 men of Ely are presented " for not coming to the Parish Church," and another — Simon Goodman of March — " for suffering his son and other boys to play in his outhouse upon the Sabbath day and in divine service time."

Also — "Case of the Will of Edmund Hey of Wendling, dioc. Norvv., 1611." Proceedings certified by a Notary. A Book endorsed "Archdeacon's Visitation Book and other Tracts 1574 to 1624." This is really a sort of Precedent or Commonplace Book in which original documents have apparently been bound up to save the trouble of copying them. One of the pages is in fact endorsed " Bookes and p"^sedentes founde in Alson's (?) Box Juhj 29, 1640. These precedent books contain much that is curious, and from the practice just mentioned of binding up original documents in them, are a kind of general receptacle for many things one would scarcely expect to find in such a place. For instance, in a large leather-bound volume, now lettered A, at P- 256 is an original appointment of Francis Hobson alderman of Chiches er to be Captain of a Company of Foot-signed "Northumberland, His Majesty's Lieutenant for the County of Sussex. 128 Ely Episcopal Records.

The following is Dr. Jessopp's Report on these Registers to the Hist. MSS. Commissioners : — "The Episcopal Registers begm with that of Bp. Simon Montacute (1337-1345). The latest that I found was that of Bishop Yorke (17S1-1808). The series is far from complete, and the registers of Bp. Simon Langham and Bp. John Burnet, which covered the years from 1362 to 1374, were already missing when Bishop ^V'ren went through the whole collection shortly after his translation to Ely from Norwich in 1638. " Unlike the Institution Books of the Diocese of Norwich, which contain very little but the names of the clergy presented to a benefice, and the date of their institution, the Registers of Ely, at least down to the middle of the i6th century, present us with a documentary history of the diocese during the episcopate of the successive occupants of the see. It seems to have been a tradition at Ely to make the Registers take the place of the old Chronicle. If the registers of the Priory of Ely were at once the letter books of the monastery and journals of the business transacted in the Chapter House, the Bishop's register was a simiku: record of all that was passing in the diocese. The valuable priory register so ably summarised by the late Mr. Honvood in the 6th Report of the Hist. MSS. Commission (pp. 289-300), will give the reader a very good idea of the importance of these episcopal registers, except only that in the one case we are dealing with the affairs of a single religious house, and in the other, with the administration of an important but compact diocese, with no great monastery to enter into serious disputes with the Bishop of the see and with the University of Cambridge not yet strong enough or rich enough to assert herself too loudly. Though the relations between the University and the Bishop were very close, and could not be other- wise, my impression is that the early registers will be found to contain fewer notices of Cambridge than might have been expected, and that what there are have already found their way into well- known sources of information. At the same time it must be con- fessed that this is only an impression. * G is the Register Cupboard in the east wall. Ely Episcopal Records, 143 G I BISHOPS' REGISTERS {continued). " A minute examination of these registers would be a work of time, and a detailed report upon their contents would lill a volume. Whether such a report is called for as yet may be doubted. "Meanwhile, it may be noted that the non-juring Fellow of St. John's, Thomas Baker, evidently had access to the episcopal archives at the beginning of the last century, and that the extracts he made are to be found in his MS. collections. These have been utilised by the late Mr. C. H. Cooper, of Cambridge, and by others who have made researches into the history of the University. On the whole, they must be confessed to be disappointing. " It is characteristic of the Ely registers that the lists of ordina- tions at the end of the volumes contain fuller information than is usually afforded in such early catalogues, which as a rule give little more than the names of the ordained. Here, in all cases, the secular and regular clergy are kept distinct, and sometimes the age and antecedents of the candidates arc added. An analysis of these lists would enable us not only to form an approximate estimate of the comparative strength of the parochial and monastic clergy, but to arrive at some conclusions regarding the number of the various religious orders in the diocese during tlie 14th and 15th centuries. The numbers admitted to holy orders in the early registers are very startling. The lists of ordinations for 22 years of Bishop Gray's episcopate (1454-1478) fill 34 closely written folio pages. In the century before this, i.e., in Bishop Simon dc Montacute's time (1337- 1 345), ordinations v/ere held much less frc(iuenlly than in the time that followed; but on the 24111 March, 1340, no less than 249 were ordained, viz., 67 acolytes, 56 sub-deacons, 57 deacons, and 59 priests. The contrast between this ordination and one held by Bishop Cox, 19 Oct., 1580, is worthy of notice; on this occasion there were only 23 candidates, of whom ei^^ht were rejected on examination. The generally received belief that during Queen Elizabeth's reign the ordination examination was a mere form, and that admission to the ministry of the Church of England was easily to be obtained by very incompetent persons, receives no support from this register as far as the diocese of Ely is concerned. " The great power and influence of the Mendicant orders again, even during the latter half of the 14th century, may be inferred from such significant entries as that in Bp. Arundel's register, where wc find that on the 7th Feb. 1375 ten Franciscans, five Augustinians, and seven Carmelite friars, after admission to the priesthood, were licensed to preach throughout the diocese. All these licensed preachers appear to have belonged to religious houses at Cambridge. " The number of I'apal Bulls, Royal letters, mandates from the Archbishop, summonses to attend ecclesiastical assemblies, circular 144 Efy Episcopal Records. G I BISHOPS' REGISTERS {continued). notices issued by the Bishop and bearing upon the taxation of the clergy and other instruments of more or less importance, of which copies are to be found in these volumes, is very large. As in the register of Bp. Stafford of Exeter [edited by Rev. Rev. F. C. Hingeston Randolph, 8vo., 1886], the Wills not only of clergy but of laymen are numerous and sometimes of great interest. The same may be said of the Marriage licenses, and occasional suits for dissolution or confirmation of marriages on the ground of nullity pleaded or dispensed. "The Licenses to beg throughout the diocese (usually styled Indulgences) for various objects are extremely curious. In one instance such an indulgence is granted for two years, to enable a poor man who had been stripped of his all by robbers, to recover his losses. " The great activity in Church building and Church restoration in the 14th century is strikingly illustrated by the notices of no less than ten Churches having been dedicated in Cambridgeshire by Thomas de Lisle in the single year 1351-2. "A mandate addressed by Bp. Thomas Arundel to the Chancellor and University of Cambridge, requiring them to pray for peace, the realm being threatened with invasion, dated Downham. "A breve addressed to Bp. Fordham by Richard II., ordering that prayers be offered up for Richard, Earl of Arundel and the fleet under his command now upon the sea, 13 June 1388. (Walsingham, Hist. Angl. ii. 175.) "In Bp. Gray's register (145 4- 147 8) there is a long account of proceedings taken against Robert Spark, John Crudde, and John Baile, who had been found guilty of heretical pravity. The articles objected to are — " I. Images not to be worshipped. ** 2. Pilgrimages not to be made. " 3. Children not to be baptised. " 4. Laymen not called upon to fast if they be labouring men. " 5. Consecration of burial grounds unnecessary. ** 6. At the sacrament of the altar no change in the elements. " 7. Transubslantiation a fiction of the priesthood. *' 8. Confession to one of their sect profits more than confession to a priest. " 9. Mental prayer in the fields is better than the same in a Church. " 10. Consent between a man and woman alone makes matri- mony. The marriage rite invented by the avarice of priests. "11. Extreme unction useless. Ely Episcopal Records. 145 G I BISHOPS' REGISTERS {continued), "12. The Pope is antichrist and the priests are devils incarnate. " 13. Every man is the Church of God, because he is said to be ' the temple of God.' "All abjure their heresies. ** With these proceedings it would he instructive to compare the report of a similar trial for heresy in 1 539-1 540 in the register of Bishop Goodrich. This long and minute report is concerned with the proceedings against William Wolsey and Robert Pygott of Wisbech, which resulted in the burning of the two men at Ely on the i6th Oct. 1555. Foxe [Acts and Monuments, vol. vii. 404) gives a very characteristic account of this busmess, but he cannot evidently have seen this report of the trial, and writes from hearsay evidence only. "Another entry in Bp. West's register (1515-1534) bearing on the same subject, shows that Thomas Bilney, who was burnt at Norwich, 19 Aug. 1531, had been proceeded against for heresy much earlier than has hitherto been supposed. * Licentia M""" Th. Bilney in iure Canon : Baccal ad predicandum populo. Sed rcvo- catur quia super hereticam pravitatem convictus est 1523.' " From such a large field as these registers cover it would be easy to make a collection of curiosities which should be of service to the historian. Thus the maintenance of bridges in the middle ages was assumed to be in some way connected with the offices of religion. In Bishop Grey's register (1454-1479) we find an illus- tration of this in a mandate from the Bishop to the Bailiff of Brandon requiring him, whereas Thomas Passhelaw, lately the occupant of Hermitagium nostrum super pontem de Brandon, was dead, to admit John Herryman to be hermit there for his life ' si bene se gesserit,' the said hermit to keep the buildings of the hermitage in due repair, i.e., out of the offerings received from those who should cross the bridge. "The attitude of Archbp. Bourchier towards Bp. Pecock of Chichester is well known and that he was translated from Ely to the primacy in 1454. On the 21st March 1457 the Archbp. issues a mandate to Bp. Gray his successor in the see of Ely calling upon him *ad inquirendum de libris domini Reginaldi Pecock Epi. Chich.' whether written in Latin or EngHsh. "ii. 3 Jan. 1465-6. — A licence addressed to Thomas Trump- ington 'Sacrae Pag : Prof: Praesidenti religionis Minorissarum monasterii de Denny,' authorising him to celebrate matrimony in the Convent Church between William Ketterich, junior, and Marion (Marionam) Hall, domestic servants in the monastery : the banns to be put up in the parish church of Waterbeach. Denny was a nunnery of the order of St. Clare. K 146 Ely Episcopal Records. G I BISHOPS' REGISTERS {continued). " iii. Certain injunctions and reformed statutes determined on in the course of a visitation of the Priory of Ely, May 1466. It would appear that the house required some reformation and received it. The report and the injunctions fill five folio pages, and are of great interest. "iv. In the register of Bishop John of Fordham (1388-1426) there is a long mandate of Archbp. Courtenay, ' Contra Choppe- ckunhes,' dated 5 March 1391. They appear to have been the clerical agents of the 14th century, who drove a brisk trade by negotiating exchanges of benefices. The Primate denounces them as ' Simonis consortes in crimine Choppechurches N'ulgariter appellati,* and their head-quarters were at London ' pro majore parte ut dicitur.' " V. In Bishop Arundel's register (1374-1388), (fol. 33), is a very strong letter addressed by the Bishop to his clergy warning them against receiving or harbouring certain " pseudo maligne mentis homines infelices" outwardly in sheep's clothing but inwardly ravening wolves. "Adeo obfuscati quod quidam eorum Archi- episcopos alii vero Episcopos se falso et mendaciter pretendentes " who had been itinerating in the diocese of Ely and elsewhere, obtaining money from the clergy and confirming children at the Churches. Such rogues were by no means to be received ' etiarasi episcopi in veritate existant' ** vi. In this same register (fol, 39^) there is an entry of unusual interest setting forth that Isabella, Countess of Suffolk, on the 21st March i38i[2] in the presence of Thomas Bishop of Ely, 'missam tunc ibidem solempniter celebrantis,' and of Henry [Despencer], Bp. of Norwich, assisting, made a solemn vow of chastity before the High Altar of the Priory Church of Campsey, Suffolk. The form of the vow is given at length. Jeo Isabelle iadys la femme William de Uffbrde Count de Suffl. vowe a dieu et a nre dame seynte Marie et a toux sejTitz en presence de tres reverentez Piers au dieu Evesqz de Ely et de Norwigt que ieo doi estre chast dors en auaunt ma x\Q duraunte. The Bp. of Ely by authority of the Bp. of Norwich received the vow and invested the lady with a ring and ' Mantellam sive clamidem ' in the presence of an immense assembly. Among the witnesses at the ceremony were the Countess's brother, Thomas Earl of Warwick, one of the Lords Appellant in 1387, and her two brothers-in-law, John, 3rd Lord Willoughby de Eresby, and Robert, 3rd Lord Scales, ' ac aliis militibus et armigeris et aliis multitudine copiosa.' This remarkable ceremony has escaped the notice of historians so far as I am aware. The sudden death of WiUiam Uftbrd, Earl of Suffolk [Walsingham, ii. 48], has been assigned by Dugdale to the isth Dec. 1381 [Baron, ii. 49]. His widow therefore took the veil just three months after her husband's death." Ely Episcopal Records. 147 '■* G I BISHOPS' REGISTERS (continued). /jN I 1337-1345- Bishop Montacute.

The first 113 pages are taken up with extracts from the registers of the See of Norwich, of which Ur. Wren was Bp. for little more than 2 years. During this short period he seems to have worked with extraordinary industry at the records to which he had succeeded, going through them page by page and noting everything that seemed to him worthy of remark. At the bottom of p. 1 1 3 he has added the following note : — Quicquid in libro hoc chartaceo infra conscriptum est, usque ad secundam banc columnam Pagin^e 113, per me ipsum coUectum fuissc ex Archivis Norwicensibus profiteor, meaque manu descriptum hinc ex eorundem perlectione et perscrutatione a me ipso facta dum Ep"^ Norwicensis eram, a 5 Decembris 1635, ad 24 April 1638. Ma : Eliensis. "At p. 114 he begins his extracts from the Ely registers, which are headed " Ex Archivis Ehensibus." These continue uninter- ruptedly to fol. 360, at the bottom of which he writes : — Hoc omne quod a Pag. 114 in istuc Libro Chartaceo prescriptum est meis ipsius oculis perscrutatum, perlectumquc fuisse ante Aug: 30 A° 1642 ex Archivis Ep^*"^ Eliensis, aliisque scriptis meaque ipsius manu in rudem banc formam congestum, exaratumque fuisse necesse est me, in verbo et fide Episcopi, profiteri.

Wren's own hand, but the Index to the Ely notes has been drawn up by another. Wren seems to have carefully noticed the occurrence of any names of Suffragan Bishops acting in either diocese as officials for the Bishops of the see, and the names of more than one are given which do not occur in Wharton's list. 150 Ely Episcopal Records.

" Reading between the lines of Bishop Wren's declaration at the end of this volume, and bearing in mind that the writer was the object of a very acrimonious persecution at the hands of the Puritan faction, who spared no pains in getting up charges against him, it is less to be wondered at that the muniments of the diocese of Ely should be as defective as they are than that so many records of great value should have survived. The see was actually kept vacant for more than 18 years, from 1581 till 1599, and the removal of such MSS. as may have been stored in the Bishop's palace in Holborn to the new residence in Dover Street, which was built in 1772, is not likely to have been carried out without some serious loss." (Hist. MSS. Comm. Report.) This volume has been produced and read as evidence in a Chancery Suit — Pickering v. Bishop of Ely, 1843. The Rev. J, H. Crosby, Librarian of Ely Cathedral, has gone carefully through this volume and compiled the following list of the MSS. which Bishop Wren mentions as the sources of his excerpts : — Registra. Liber i, Liber 2, Liber 3, Liber 4, Liber 5, Liber 6, Liber 7. Fragmentum Registri apud me. Quidam rotuli manerii de Holborn, Ed. 3-Hen. 7. And 1373-1418, 1425-1469, 1474-1481, 1482-1509.

Ely Episcopal Records. 151 G 2 MISCELLANEOUS REGISTERS. Cambridgeshire Manors. An old MS. volume (written about temp. Jac. i) relating to the descents of Manors in Cambridgeshire, with an Index to the Manors at the end. It appears to have formerly belonged to Mr. Peck. It is a most laborious and valuable compilation, and the Editor is not acquainted with any transcript of it. The following is a specimen of its contents : — Abbington juxta Shingay soe called to distinguish from others of y* name ; it belonge aunciently to y® Abbingtons who were lordes of it.

A volume marked " Liber B," containing registers of Papal Bulls, Royal Grants, Official Appointments, Manumissions, Presentations to Benefices, &c., relating to the Church of Ely. This is evidently the Book B, one of the MSS. Elien., mentioned in Bentham's Ely. (Preface and pp. 141 and 172.) On the fly leaf is " This Register was given to me by T. M. G.

It begins at fo. 9 ; and fo. 1 1 is missing, though the first pages, instead of the folios, have been re-numbered in a modern hand so that it appears at first sight to be complete. There is a modern index of persons and places at the end. Ely and Bury MS. A thin folio of 40 leaves of the 15 th century, containing a collection of extracts from ancient charters and other documents in support of the case of the Bp. of Ely in a discussion which had arisen between him and the Abbot of St. Edmunds with regard to certain liberties and franchises which it appears the Abbot had invaded. Denney Abbey MS. A beautiful MS. volume, written on 32 pages of vellum, containing the proceedings on the appropriation of the Churches of Eltisley, CO. Cambridge, and Sydenham, co. Bedford, temp. Elizabeth Throgmorton abbess, 15 12. The following letter shews how it comes to be here : — My Lord, " Saturday.

Dr. Walker, at Trinity College, in Cambridge : — "Norwich, Apr. 4, 1750. Sir, I'm oblig'd to you for y''^ on Monday, but am much concern'd at y'^ ace* you give of some of y^ Surrogates. The evil of clandestine marriages has been long and loudly complained of, and imputed in a good measure, and indeed w*^ too much reason, to those intrusted with Licences. Some must be left in y° hands of particular Clergymen, in confidence of their integrity, and y® regard they ought to have for their own character in granting them : for there can't be too much care taken in an affair of so tender a nature, where y® peace and welfare of families is so much concerned. These great irregularities will one day be y^ ruin of y^ ecclesiastical jurisdiction in this particular branch. "As to y® persons you mention, they appear to have been so guilty, that I can't think them at all proper to be any longer trusted ; and therefore beg you'll order Higgins to let them know this, and to require a return of y*^ Licences undispatch'd in their hands, and to let them have no more. I am sure both you and Mr. Greene will concur in any method that may put a stop to these scandalous practices. I did hope we should hear no more from St. Sepulchre's : if you do, please to let me know it. " I am, S"", your most humble Serv*, W. Peck." IX. — 1760-1773. (Has an Index.) X. — 1 773- 1 805.

These, as will be seen from the foregoing Inventory, are tolerably complete from 1599 to 1813 for the old Diocese of Ely, that is to say, for the County of Cambridge with the exception of Isleham, which was formerly in the Diocese of Rochester, and Ashley-cum- Silverley, Burwell, Cheveley, Chippenham, Fordham, Kennet, Kirtling, Newmarket S. Mary, Snailwell, Soham, Wicken, and Wood Ditton, which were formerly in the Diocese of Norwich.* Also there are no Transcripts for Thorney, probably because of the former peculiar jurisdiction of the Abbey there. Owing to the changes in the territorial constitution of the Diocese, it is often difficult for a searcher to ascertain where to look for the Wills, Transcripts, Terriers, and Institutions before 1837 for the districts nOw comprised in the Diocese; and the following table is therefore intended to give an approximate idea of their present places of deposit. Class of Date of Present place of Records. Commencement Deposit, Cambridgeshire* Willst 1449 Peterborough Transcripts 1599 Ely Terriers 1615 Ely Institutions 1337 Ely Suffolk Wills 1354 Bury St. Edmunds Transcripts Norwich Terriers Norwich Institutions 1299 Norwich Bedfordshire Wills X 1540 Northampton Transcripts § 1604 Bedford Terriers c. 1600 Lincoln Institutions 1220 Lincoln Huntingdonshire Wills X 1479 Peterborough if 1557 London Transcripts § 1672 Huntingdon Terriers c. 1600 Lincoln Institutions 1220 Lincoln • The Deputy Registrar at Norwich informs me that the Transcripts for these Parishes (except during the Bishop of Norwich's Septennial Visitations, when they would be at Norwich) should be In the Registry of the Archdeacon of Sudbury at Bury St. Edmunds ; but the Archdeacon's Registrar has no knowledge of them. * Except the places, formerly in the Dioceses of Norwich and Rochester, specified above. t For the Wills entered in the Bishop's Registers, see page 193, supra. % There are also a few Wills at Lincoln relating to Beds, and Hunts. The earlier Wills entered in the Registers of the Bishops of Lincoln have been printed in abstract : Williamson, Lincoln, 8vo, 1888. § There are also some Transcripts for Beds, and Hunts, at Lincoln— principally about 1602- 1610, but in some cases coming down to 1670. They are believed to be duplicates of those returnad to the Archdeacons' Registries at Bedford and Huntingdon. 238 Ely Episcopal Records. NOTES ON THE BISHOPS' TRANSCRIPTS (continued). In making the following notes and extracts, the object kept in view has been to give an idea of the years for which the Transcripts are to be found, and (except of course in the towns) of the principal families to be found in each parish ; as well as extracts relating to the famihes whose pedigrees are given in the Heralds' Visitations, and all entries which appeared to be in any way remarkable or to relate to persons unconnected with the parishes where the entries occur, and which might therefore otherwise be looked for in vain. Considerable care has also been taken to note the Clergy who sign or are otherwise mentioned in the Transcripts, so as to supply to some extent the place of the lost Institution Registers. The names given in italics and in brackets are those which appear constantly in the respective registers. It need scarcely be added that the examination of so many transcripts was necessarily a somewhat cursory one, but it has been made as exhaustive as the circumstances would allow. From 1599 to 1700 is the period as a rule covered by these notes. The Extracts from the Transcripts are also, to some extent, annotated from the Marriage Licence Registers, &c., in order to show what a vast amount of genealogical information may be gathered from those sources.

Sir, My Lord Bishop of Ely begs you will be so good as to take the trouble to procure for Mr. Porson, a small Leather Portmanteau, a great Coat of Bath coating and a pair of Boots, and his Lordship begs they may be made big enough, to admit of a little increase in size, as they are not things in constant wear, and I think the Port- manteau shd. not be to small, as it will be a Lasting useful Thing for a Single Gentleman. His Lordship hath advanced Cash to Mr. Porson for his Journey himself: Mr. Porson will leave College one day next week. I am Sr. Your obedt. Humble Servant B. Chamberlain. Ely Palace, Aug. 28, 1778.

You need not notice to Mr. Porson. To Mr. Smith, Deputy Regr., Cambridge. Mr. Smith's reply states that Mr. Porson had already got his coat and boots before coming to him, and wishes he had waited " as I think I could a got the Boots and Coat more reasonable then having them of the College Shoemaker and Taylor."

It sets out that the Isle of Ely is a Royal Franchise, having a Gaol Delivery and a Gaol at Ely, the onus of repairing which latter lies as it shd. seem upon the Bp. of Ely as Lord of the Franchise as appears by a Report made in 1767 to his present Majesty by the then Attorney and Solicitor General upon a Question then agitated between the Bishop and the Inhabitants, and so forth. In 1798 one James Thompson was removed by Habeas Corpus from Newgate to this Gaol on a 428 Eiy Episcopal Records, NOTES OF SOME OF THE MISCELLANEOUS CORRESPONDENCE, &c., IN H 2 (continued). charge of Felony in stealing a Horse at Sutton in the Isle of Ely, the property of Mr. Joseph Vipan. He became insane, and Counsel is asked to advise on the question of the Bp's. liability to provide keepers &c. Mr. Gwillim's opinion was that the Inhabitants were liable and not the Bishop ; but the difficulty appears to have been ultimately solved, for an endorsement states " Thompson proved no Maniac and was hanged, 1801." The condition of the prisoners at this time does not seem to have been a very enviable one. A letter dated Wednesday, 4th June, 1800, begins "Mr. Bugge presents his most respectful! com- pliments to The Bishopp and informs his Lordship he has just now reed, ye Order for sending away the Prisoners for Transportation, and Seaford will make all possible dispatch in geting them away as far as Cambridge this afternoon and loose them in the Jail there till ye morning.

My Lord, The very respectable Committee of Subscribers, who have benevolently undertaken to superintend the Distribution of the Money collected by voluntary Contribution for the Relief of the French Clergy, Refugees in the British Dominions, finding their Resources begin to fail, and that the Distress of the unhappy Objects of their Charity still continues, have humbly supplicated His Majesty for His Royal Permission to make Collections for their further Support ; and I do, with great Pleasure, communicate to you His Majesty's most gracious Letter in Answer to their Petition. You will therein see how much His Majesty approves this Charitable Work, by the Readiness with which he gives it His Royal Countenance and Protection ; and also what Commands he hath laid upon us, that His Letter be made public; and that the Ministers in each Parish be required effectually to excite their Parishioners to a liberal Contribution.

Sufferers alone for Conscience Sake, were driven into Our Dominions without any Means of Livelihood or Support, and have been wholly maintained and supported for above Six Months by the voluntary Contributions of the Petitioners, which have amounted in the Whole to above Twenty-six thousand Pounds. But the Committee, finding their Resources begin to fail, and that the Distress of the said French Clergy still continues, humbly supplicate that We would be graciously pleased to permit them to make Collections for this Charitable Purpose, in the different Parishes 430 Ely Episcopal Records, NOTES OF SOME OF THE MISCELLANEOUS \\ CORRESPONDENCE, &c., IN H 2 (continued). of this Kingdom ; and that the Ministers in each Parish may be enjoined to exhort their Parishioners to a Uberal Contribution towards carrying on this Charitable Work, which the Committee 1 trust will be acceptable in the Sight of that Being who is the common y Father of Mankind — We, taking the Premises into Our Royal Con- sideration, and being ready to give the best Encouragement and Countenance to this Work of Christian Charity, are graciously pleased to condescend to their Request, and do hereby direct you, that these our Letters be communicated to the several Suffragan Bishops within your Province, expressly requiring them to take Care that Publication be made hereof, on such Sunday, and in such Places within their respective Dioceses, as the said Bishops shall appoint ; and that, upon this Occasion, the Ministers in each Parish do effectually excite their Parishioners to a liberal Contribution, whose Benevolence towards carrying on the said Charitable Work shall be also collected the Week following at their respective Dwellings by the Churchwardens or Overseers of the Poor in each Parish ; and the Ministers of the several Parishes are to cause the Sums so collected to be paid immediately to our trusty and well- beloved John Wilmot, Esquire, of Bedford-Row, London, Member of Parliament for Our City of Coventry, and Chairman of the said Committee of Subscribers for the Relief of the said French Clergy, Refugees in Our British Dominions, to be accounted for by him to the said Committee, and applied to the carrying on and promoting the above-mentioned Charitable Work.
