ANTIQUE VELLUM SIGNED LORD CHIEF JUSTICE. ASSIGNMENT OF COMMISIONER OF OATHS
TO THEODORE ROBERT RIXON OF GRACE CHURCH STREET LONDON. SIGNED BY SIR
ALEXANDER EDMUND COCKBURN, BARONET, LORD CHIEF JUSTICE. 1802–80, British
jurist. He was called to the bar in 1829, and a volume of reports on election
cases (1832) brought him into national prominence as a trial lawyer. He was
made recorder for Southampton (1841) and was elected to Parliament from there
(1847). He was noted particularly for his defense advocacy, one of his most
famous successes being the acquittal (1843) of Daniel McNaghten, who had
killed Sir Robert Peel’s secretary, on grounds of insanity; the “McNaghten
rules” became the basic definition of criminal responsibility in most
English-speaking jurisdictions. In Parliament, Cockburn successfully defended
Lord Palmerston’s handling of the “Don Pacifico” dispute (1850). He served as
attorney general (1851–56) and was chief justice of common pleas (1856–59)
and lord chief justice (1859–80), presiding over the famous Tichborne case.

seven years, still unexpired; and then assigned his interest to Sir John
Fleet, subsequently the building was destroyed by fire in Mincinq Lane, and
disputes arose between Fleet and Raworth re. the covenants in the lease, and
in the insurance, and it is now agreed that Raworth pays Fleet œ1200; in

OF THE ESTATE BY AUCTION TO A JOHN HENRY MACHU OF TWISTED ALLEY, BUNHILL ROW
IN THE COUNTY OF MIDDLESEX, SILK TRIMMING MANUFACTURER. London’s Oldest
theatre The Covent Garden area has long been associated with theatre. The
oldest established is the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, which had its origins in
a patent granted on the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660. A small theatre
was established off Drury Lane in 1663 and this has evolved via several
auditoria to the present famous building. Sir Christopher Wren's sectional
drawing entitled simply 'Playhouse' is generally reckoned to be at least an
initial design for the 1674 Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Since its construction
in 1663 the theatre has triumphed over tragedy, fire, bankruptcy and even
murder, the celebrated actress/mistress Nell Gwynne played an important role
in the theatre's history. In 1794 The Third Drury Lane Theatre was built
Samuel Whitbread, the son of the brewer had a major involvement in the DRURY
LANE THEATER. In 1809 the theatre was again destroyed by fire. Already over
£500,000 in debt, the theatre was in danger of going out of business.
Whitbread became chairman of the committee set up to rebuild the theatre.
With the help of his political friends, Whitbread managed to raise the
necessary funds and the Drury Lane Theatre was reopened on 10th October,
1812. GUARANTEED ORIGINAL firm strike REPORT OFFICE CACHE. |

"THIS
INDENTURE TRIPARTITE made the six and twentieth day of May on Anno Domini 1677
and in the nine and twentieth year of the reign of our Sovereign Lord Charles
the Second, by the grace of God,of England, Scotland, France and Ireland,
King, Defender of the Faith..." This is a land indenture between three
people whose names appear to be MATTHEW BATEMAN, SAMUEL BERRY and RICHARD
BACON Gentleman of the Middle Temple of London. The name JOHN HOSKYNS
(Hoskins?)is signed at the base. It relates to land at St.Mary *****
Whitechappell (Whitechapel ?) Middlesex Essex and London. HATFIELD BROAD OAK
? and HATFIELD KINGS are also mentioned?? Very hard to read - time needs to
be spent on this document. It is very large, made of real animal hide velum,
and 326 years old. The artistry at the top left is super and is signed in the
swirls by Edw Berry. Two huge wax seals at the base. Mention is made of
stables, arable land, floodings (or shootings?), out buildings etc. The
beautiful swirl on the outside has writing beside it in Latin. It measures 2
foot 7 inches by 2 foot when unfolded. This is an old English rarity made in
the same century as Oliver Cromwells Commonwealth existed! This came with
others from the Bateman family predominantly - many over 150 years later. One
mentions the CRABS GREEN FARM at HATFIELD BROAD OAK, ESSEX, probably the same
place!! (indenture: A duplicate contract, the two halves being cut in a
zig-zag line, which was commonly employed in the early modern period..) |

Brewery in Earl's Court, including three documents assigning his letters
patent in his device for improvements in brewing and a further deed of
co-partnership with Thomas Stubbs for operating the Star Brewery. In 1821,

first three documents deal with his assignments of his patents in a device
which improved the brewing process. By 1830 he is described as 'common
brewer' running the Star Brewery in Earl's Court. Documents relating to early
London breweries seldom appear on the market. |
