622 STEEPER V SCOTT

William Steeper of St Andrew Holborn, co. Middlesex, tailor v Thomas Scott of Marlow, co. Buckingham, gent

November 1637

Abstract

The origin and result of this cause remains uncertain, as only a badly damaged libel survives; but the case was probably a counter suit to the case Scott brought against Steeper in February 1637. [See cause 584].

Initial proceedings

12/1ff, Libel [faded and damaged]

Dated 18 November 1637.

Signed by Clere Talbot.

Notes

Thomas Scott of Marlow was the son of Thomas Scott of London and Mary, daughter of Mr Sutton. He married Alice, daughter and heiress of William Allanson of London.
