July 1553

July 10.
The Tower.
1. Proclamation of Lady Jane Grey as Queen of England, &c. Setting forth that the Lady Mary and the Lady Elizabeth are illegitimate, and calling upon persons of all estates and degrees to be obedient to her, their lawful sovereign. [This is a modern and not very accurate copy. An original printed Proclamation is in the collection of the Society of Antiquaries, printed by Richard Grafton; and it is a remarkably fine specimen of his workmanship. In the imprint he styles himself Queen's Printer.]
July 20. 2. Account of arrears of the tenths and subsidies of the Clergy, due by divers Bishops at and before Christmas last.
July. 3. Memoranda of things to be done for government of the State on the accession of Queen Mary.
July. 4. Certain articles, wherein the Queen's pleasure is to be known for her Highness's affairs. Given in charge to Sir William Cecill to be declared. Signed by Archbp. Cranmer, Bp. Goodrich, and the Marq. of Winchester.
