Talbot
(Gilbert), later seventh Earl of Shrewsbury, and Mary his wife LETTER to his
father, dated 'At Godrydche your L. castell this xijth day of Jan 1575.' 1«
pages, paper size 12«" x 9", 42 lines in all, signed by both Mary
and Gilbert 'your L. moste humble And obedyent Lovinge children'. Blank
conjoint leaf with 'To my Lorde father' on verso, small piece torn from
bottom of blank leaf. Loosely inserted in specially-made grey card folder. He
says the bearer of the letter, his father's sergeant of 'Ichingfylde'
(possibly Ecclesfield near Sheffield) is to bring him all the money he could
gather from the 'extretts of Ichyngfylde', although the bailiffs say many
complain they are not worth as much as they are amerced. A man called Wygfall
will meet the Earl at Sheffield a day or two after the sergeant and go
through the accounts 'which withoute his owne explayninge wolde very hardly
be understode, And I can now best spare him for that the Furnesse is not yet
blowynge which after it be once sett a worke will require much more tendynge,
And I hope aboute his returne we shal be in a redines to sett her in hande'.
He says he will send a full account of the the state of the works. 'The Iron
goeth but slowly away, for that I will not cum so Lowe As the contry thynketh
to brynge me unto, And I am moste Assured by forbering hastie salle for a
wyle to brynge them to xj. li. xs. the Tunn'. He says he has arranged for two
fellows to make a pump in the well. He is to pay them 20 nobles and find them
the lead. He then asks for his father's advice about whether 'ye parlament
dothe houlde, which is here thoughte to doe, the tyme drawyng neere....'
1575. £230.00 ¶ At this time Gilbert was M.P. for Derbyshire. He apparently
conspired with his step-mother 'Bess of Hardwick' against his father, but
after his death quarelled violently with her and all the rest of his family,
and his tenantry. He accused his younger brother and a doctor of conspiring
to kill him and even challenged him to a duel. His father George Talbot was
at this time the keeper of Mary Queen of Scots at his castle at Sheffield.
The Talbots owned extensive land in the Forest of Dean. There is no clue as
to where the blowing furnace was situated, but it may have been near Lydney. |

Cirencester postmarks, two with wax seals. All closely written. The last page
of one letter appears to be in shorthand. It would from the content of the
letters that Merrick was the Frere's brother-in-law. Merrick encourages
Charles to get a job 'you must let them know you are looking out for
employment and that you are not come to America for sight seeing'. He sends
local news 'Our railway opened on 31st May, but one embankments is still
precarious, continuing to slip and threatening to stop the traffic.. I have
no influence in making the appointments. They range in value from 60 pound to
120 pound per annum, & are not to be obtained without great difficulty...
Slatter of Gloucester is a bankrupt, also James James of Ross. Many people
are failing in Gloucester..' and in a later he speaks of the completion of
the railroad to London 'our engineers are dismissed and my old clerk Cossens
is turned off.. it is hard to have his bread to seek anew at 70.. Our shares
62 paid up, are now selling at 22..' and later 'I am removed to my new
Railway Office.. looking towards the end of Earl Bathursts house.. the work
being diminished, I expect my office to be cut down. I have now but my young clerk.'
