Order, upon petition of John Toky called Banbury of Lymeryk in Ireland, to view letters of cocket which he has and, if assured that 65 lasts of hides by them arrested are the same therein contained, to dearrest and deliver them to him; as his petition shews that in the port of Lymeryk he freighted the same in a ship of Clays Blanke of Scluys to be taken to Flanders, and that although he there paid custom, subsidy and duties thereupon, the collectors have arrested and are detaining ship and hides for a second payment of custom and subsidy, the king's adversaries of France at sea having driven the said ship to Bristol.
