For some years since the commencement of this Parliament, paid 4,000l. a year customs to the State, and in the beginning of the differences, freely contributed to Parliament on the propositions, and paid his 20th part. But some acquaintance, perceiving his discontent at not obtaining justice at a committee against one of their officers who had grossly abused him, caused petitioner's name to be put in the Commission of Array for London, without his consent. Was thus forced to withdraw into the King's quarters in the West, but never took up arms there. Afterwards withdrew into France. 96 322

9 July 1651. John Winter, of Penrith, Cumberland, petitions that Rydal Manor, Westmoreland, sequestered from the late Wm.

Cowper has assigned his lease to Roger Barwick, a recusant delinquent, for his master, Sir Jordan Crosland, a dangerous delinquent, who keeps possession, to the terror of the wellaffected, it being a strong place, and a noted rendezvous for malignants. The late County Committee leased it for 2,000l. for 1650 to Sir Jordan, but no rent has been paid. 131 373
Being faithful and a sufferer for the Commonwealth, is troubled at this abuse, and begs examination before the County Committee for Cumberland, the County Commissioners for Westmoreland being the parties complained of; also leave to lease the estate at 200l., and the leviation of the 2,000l. for 1650, on Sir Jordan.
