4 June 1646. Begs to compound on Newark Articles. His house being near the King's garrison, resided there, but never bore arms nor otherwise supported the forces. 197 394
26 July. John Somersall, of Leonard's, Shoreditch, petitions. Master Hurst being executor of Lewis Somersall, of Grantham, co. Lincoln, my uncle, whose daughter he married, and who died worth 10,000l., Hurst instigated him to give nothing to any of his kindred that were Roundheads. He had 500l. a year, kept his coach and footboy, and "it was his usual custom, when he did invite any gentlemen of his own coat to his table, to have a set of music to usher in each several dish." On 15 July 1646, he said that these Soundheads were the most pestilent people that lived, and as for Puritans, he could not abide them. He also said that, for aught I knew, he had moneys beyond seas. I answered the commonalty paid for it. 118 691
Again, when I said that a man of his learning and estate might do more hurt to the State than 1,000 fighting soldiers could do, his answer was that now he should pay dear enough for it, and he was bound to serve his Majesty, being the King's chaplain, as my apprentice was bound to serve me; that it should never be said that the Hursts would prove base; and further, that "the malignants made a full account to have beaten us, but now, we having beaten them, they must stoop unto us, whether they would or no;" and that they hoped for his Majesty's sudden coming to town, which makes them delay to bring in their moneys. Hurst uttered many other words savouring of strong malignancy.

Vol. G No. or p.
[16 June 1646.] Richard Francklyn, of Sherston, Wilts, petitions the House of Commons that his son, Capt. John Francklyn, had an estate for life in certain copyholds of the Marquis of Hertford's manor of Sherston, for which petitioner paid 200l. Having an estate therein for years, determinable on the lives of himself and Philip Francklyn, his uncle, paid the Marquis 460l. in 1637, for exchanging Philip's life for that of John, and adding that of Richard, petitioner's son. 86 415
At the beginning of the wars, resisted the Marquis' attempt to engage him and his sons against Parliament, on the promise if they lost their lives, to grant the said estate to others of the family, and furthered his son John in raising a company for Parliament, under Sir Neville Poole, one of the deputy-lieutenants of co. Wilts, with which he marched to Wells and to Marlborough, in defence of which his son, and his kinsman, John Francklyn, then M.P., were taken prisoners and carried to Oxford, where, after ½ year's imprisonment, his son died as if by poison. During this time he was maintained, and his distressed soldiers were relieved by petitioner, who had no pay from Parliament, and therefore cannot now pay his debts, nor provide for his family, having been for more than 2 years driven from home. Begs his son's arrears of pay, and a grant of the estate to his nominees. 86 415
16 June. Petitions the Committee at Goldsmiths' Hall, that pending his attendance on the House of Commons for answer to the foregoing, the Marquis of Hertford may not be admitted to composition till petitioner's grievances are considered. 86 414

If he settled them by the names of the rectories, a greater value would be conveyed than he had allowance for, as the glebe and demesne lands are intermixed; the true value thereof he will make good, either by redemise or otherwise. His fine for old rents is set as if they were old rents of assize, whereas they are improved rents, and amount to 1/5 of the rack value. As to the old rents, begs reference to the sub-committee to peruse the certificates of the County Committee of Lancaster. 105 778

Also a tenement was described in his particular as lying in Euxton, whereas it is the next town, Charnock. Valued his demesues and tithes together, and if there were any glebe lands, he valued them as tenement lands, with tithes of the tenancies, being full as much as they are expressed; he desires that if he must part with them, he may part only with the tithes of the tenancies, and that his demesnes may be discharged of tithes, and that the glebe lands, if any, compounded for as tenement lands, may not be conveyed. He compounded for the manor of Male, as in possession, but has only an estate in reversion, and desires abatement therefor. 188 884

April 1648 ? The Inhabitants of The Port And Corporation of Liverpool, co. Lancaster, petition Parliament for redress for their losses out of the estates of the Earl of Derby, Lord Molineux, and ten others of co. Lancaster, most being Papists in arms, the principal procurers of the enemy's advance into the county, and their chief abettors in robbing and spoiling petitioners. On pretence of being Commissioners, they sat in the town to let and sell the tenements, lands, and goods of the inhabitants, without allowing them a fifth part. 188 928
Beg satisfaction for 800l. for quartering the Parliament's soldiers. They seriously affected the common cause with Parliament, opposing all who sided with the malignants in co. Lancaster, which was "extremely infected with the contagion of Popery and malignancy, whereof it yet foully savoureth." Prince Rupert being promised great sums by the Popish faction and the malignants, who comprised all the nobility and most of the gentry, marched into the county, beleaguered Liverpool as the most convenient place for the Irish and Welsh to join him, and assaulted the city; he was several times repulsed with the loss of many hundreds of his men, and would never have taken it had not the seamen deserted their posts in the night, the commanders and soldiers being on the other side of the town. The enemy entered at their void sconces, mercilessly massacred some of the soldiers and inhabitants, and imprisoned petitioners, spoiling them of their estates to the value of 23,000l.
12 Aug. Col. John Moore, M.P., and the well-affected inhabitants of Liverpool, with hundreds made widows and fatherless children by Prince Rupert's army, petition to the same effect. Endorsed by John Ashe, "Col. Moore and others' petitions against the Lord Molineux, to be presented when he comes to compound." 188 939

With note of order accordingly. 188 905
15 Jan. Lord Molineux is ordered to settle the said 357l. a year for the maintenance of the ministers of such places as the Committee for Compounding shall appoint, and by such security as Mr. Rich shall think sufficient. 5

1 Dec. 1652. The Countess and her husband petition the Committee for relief on Articles of War, that she may have restitution of and compound for the 3½ years' arrears of her annuity of 1,300l., amounting to 4,550l., for which she offered to compound, but by orders of the House of Commons of 1 October and 28 Dec. 1646, it was wholly paid and disposed of by her late husband's executors, though the first order limited the amount to so much of that sum as was due to the State. Those orders were in contravention of Oxford Articles, the benefit of which she has not forfeited. They beg that the Marquis of Hertford and Sir Rob. Shirley, now in possession of the lands bound for payment of her annuity compounded for, may show cause why they should not resort to those lands for satisfaction of her arrears. 142 308
