R. de Frowyk, for August 11 read May (Letter Book D, fo. 32b). |
" 167 |
W. Cauntbrigge. He is described as 'Alderman' in the minute of his election as
Sheriff on September 21, 1415, his predecessor in the Aldermanry of
Langbourn, H. Halton, being recorded as present also (Letter Book I, fo.
158b). I think there is an error on the part of the scribe. Halton
appears to have died in October and it is possible that Cauntbrigge was
elected his successor between September 21 and the actual entering of the
minute. There is no trace in the records of his serving as Alderman for
any other ward before this date. See, however, vol. II., p. 5 (footnote 10),
where I have suggested another possible solution of the difficulty. |
" 169 |
Sir W. Chester. The reason for his removal from the Aldermanry does not
appear: as far back as November 2, 1571, a deputation of three Aldermen (Sir
John White, Sir Roger Martyn and Sir Rowland Hayward) was appointed
'to go to Sir W. Chester to talke with hym concernynge the office of his
Aldermanshipe' (Rep. 17, fo. 226). |

Portsoken Ward. The list of Priors of Holy Trinity is incorrect in many
points of date: a more accurate list is substituted on p. 418 where,
however, the name of Thomas Pomeroy has been accidentally omitted.
His dates are congè d'elire April 14: royal assent April 21, 1445: restoration
of temporalities February 19, 1446. There was a controversy as to his
election, the royal assent being given also to that of William Westkarre on
May 23, 1445, but Pomeroy ultimately was confirmed in the possession of
the Priorate. |
" 180 |

1861 July. The numbers polled for Wood and Cubitt are given correctly in
the text from the official declaration. Those recorded in Mr. Welch's
Modern History of the City of London (p. 229) are so ludicrously remote
from the true ones as to recall Pope's comment on the straws, etc., in
amber (Epistle to Dr. Arbuthnot v. 172): they are clearly not a
typographical error. |

" 363 |
Mr. C. L. Kingsford in his notice of this volume in English Historical Review
(col. 24, p. 137), gives satisfactory reason for identifying the Warda Haconis
with Coleman Street rather than Broad Street, in which case Warda
Reimundi probably corresponded with Broad Street, thus transposing
Mr. Loftie's suggestions for numbers 2 and 19 in his list. Mr. Kingsford
inclines to identify Warda Herberti with Dowgate rather than Walbrook;
but his identification, like my own, is put tentatively and the apparently
contradictory evidence is probably susceptible of the explanation which he
offers, that the boundaries of the Ward were not finally fixed in 1130. |
" 366 |

" 386 |
add footnote. In Hust. Roll 71, fo. 34, the name of Thomas de Grenstede
occurs under date March 12, 1344, as Alderman of the Ward in which
certain property in the Parish of St. Mary Woolchurch was situate. This
must have been one of the four Wards Walbrook, Broad Street, Cheap
or Langbourn, and almost certainly one of the two first of these, but there
is no trace of any vacancy in any of them (or indeed in any other Ward)
about this time to which an Alderman unnamed in Vol. I. of this work
could have been elected. Grenstede is not mentioned anywhere else as
Alderman of any Ward, and his name does not appear at all in any
connexion in Dr. Sharpe's Calendars of Letter Books. I can only suggest
the possibility that he was identical with Thomas Leggy, then Alderman
of Broad Street, and that Grenstede was a place name—presumably
Greenstead, co. Essex, which may have been Leggy's birthplace or
residence, but I have found no direct evidence to connect him with it either
as native or inhabitant. |

For N. Godestone read N. Godessone (so also at page 413). |

Before the elections for 1382 insert: In Letter Book H, fo. 139b, a meeting of
Aldermen on February 13, 1382, is recorded at which John Vyne is named
as being present. There is no other indication of his having been elected an
Alderman during the year 1381–2. 17 of the Aldermen elected in March,
1381, were also present, the other six being W. Baret (Walbrook), R. Lucas
(Cripplegate), J. Southam (Langbourn), E. Olyver (Dowgate), J. Heende
(Candlewick) and H. Fastolf (Tower). Vyne had already served for Queenhithe
and Cordwainer, but the Aldermen of both these Wards were among those
present. If there is no error in the record Vyne must have succeeded one of
the six Aldermen named who must have resigned or been removed during
the year, as all six were living later, but there is no evidence to fix or
suggest a more definite identification of the vacancy which he filled.
