Footnotes

1	Built at Whitehall, across the road from Charing Cross to Westminster.
2	A messuage or tenement at Charing-cross called the "Beirhouse" (Augment: Office. Partic: for Grants, 36 H. viii. File 689).
3	Near the Abbey and the River; belonged to the Abbey of Westminster. It occurs constantly in the 17th century books of this parish.
4	vide Arundels of Cornwall in Nat: Dict: of Biog.
5	vide n. 1, p. 37, and cf. the use of the token in the Ch: of Scotland since the Reformation (Chap. IV, Old Scottish Commun: Plate, Thomas Burns).
6	The Augmentations Court was established by H. viii in 1535; it administered the revenues accruing to the king by the abolition of smaller monasteries. The vestments, for which Henry had no personal use, were distributed to various parishes.
7	The Rouncival was one of the smaller houses abolished in 1535. It was next to the Hermitage (vide note, p. 88).
8	Died in Sept. 1556, vide n. 8, p. 159.
9	qy. Parr or Perry, vide eleven names lower down.
10	Spurrier or spur-maker.
11	For morowmas priest, vide note, p. 34.
12	Guildhall, vide pp. 108, 109.
13	vide note, p. 17.
14	Ascension day.
15	vide n. 4, p. 63.
16	qy. Tenebrae candles, vide n. 2, p. 13.
17	For wax.
18	One of four books (a) Services said or sung in processions, (b) Litanies, (c) Intercessions, (d) Customs and Services for "gang" days when the parish bounds were beaten.
19	Small tapers.
20	Most of the dead were buried in winding sheets only; the parish provided a coffin for fetching the body to the church, for it to lie in during the service and for its removal to the graveside.
21	Previously always called All hallows in these accounts.
22	Christmas.
23	vide note, p. 17.
24	vide note 9, p. 12.
25	qy. the part through which the wick passes.
26	Probably to clean it.
27	Earnest money, e.g. a deposit in order to make a bargain binding; probably in connection with the law suit on the next page, cf. also the last item but one on p. 104.
28	Toll-gatherer (Halliwell).
29	I have not been able to discover their offence.
30	Absolving.
31	I have failed to discover any other trace of this suit. The terms used will be clear from the following description of the legal process involved:—Having entered his plaint or action, the plaintiff proceeds to arrest the defendant on mesne process and hold him to bail. He then serves him with a copy of the Declaration, or formal statement of his demand. The plaintiff then gets the judge to fix a day for the trial and procures a venire facias, or writ to the sheriff's officer bidding a jury (or inquest) come, and, there being a deficiency of attendance, prays a "tales," or supplement from the bystanders. The jury give their verdict, followed by judgment of the court accordingly, and this is registered on the file of proceedings.
32	File.
33	King's silver was money due to the King in the Court of Common Pleas "pro licentia concordandi" (Manley's Interpreter).
34	One dozen and a half.
35	To re-steel the edge (Halliwell).
36	There is nothing to show that this was paid to the Accountants. They were doubtless expected "to forgyve it vnto the sayd churche" as some of their predecessors had done.
