Comments

This page appears in the Court Book after the Court of 1648 and an undated record of a recovery, and before the record of the Court of November 3rd 1674 meaning that if the dates are correct it is out of sequence.
It appears to be a form of statement of account, but corresponds to no other page in this Court Book.
It has been written in English, unlike the pages before and after which are in Latin.
This page is dated November 4th 1675 which was a Monday, meaning that the record in the Court Book dated November 3rd 1675 would have been a Sunday. Unlikely!
Some of the entries on this document correspond to those recorded as being at the Court of November 3rd 1675: these are indicated below.

  1. This value of the mortgage does not agree with the £80 1s 6d in the full record of the Court. ↩︎
  2. It is difficult to see how this figure of 1s 1d was calculated: there are 7 essoins listed in both the 1675 and 1676 Courts. The last note on the current page shows 3s 3d as the total for the same number of essoins for 1676. ↩︎
