This
manuscript is dated 1597 in the reign of Elizabeth I and is written mainly in
Latin. The defendant was Francis Curle who was
accused of libel
by a Mr Fletewood both
from the Blackburn area of Lancashire. The case was heard in London at the
Guildhall by Sir Henry Hobart, and there is a letter from The Records Office
in London saying that this case is documented on the Plea Roll of the Court
of Commons (No 2029) on roll 1097. The manuscript is in reasonable condition
considering its age, all pages are as the first photograph apart from the
last page which has been the outer cover and is pretty worn but still
readable (see photograph). The pages are numbered ( 23
pages) but page ten appears to be missing, perhaps the pages were numbered
incorrectly. Included is the letter from the Records
Office and a transcrption from Prof. Twemlow of Liverpool University, and two other pieces of
correspondence. |

This
is a very interesting piece of history Mary Jane who was married to Richard Batten
who was a glasscutter in St Helens has gone to her solicitors Samuel
Oppenheim to borrow £20 at the rate of £5 interest per annum which was
extortionate that was August 1890. The poor lady then goes back in September
1891 to borrow a further £10 then again in August 1892 for a further £10. We
can only guess how this poor lady must have felt and what she must have gone
through. It is in very good condition no rips or tears |
