Extract

Among the miscellaneous Papers contained in the Cotton Manuscript, Titus B. I. I find a Note of “The Chardges of certayne Prisoners in the Tower.” The contents of this Paper are curious. It is confined to the time of King Henry the Eighth, and enumerates the Names of some persons who are no where else chronicled as having fallen under the royal displeasure. It also affords a notion of the allowance made at that period for the support of Prisoners of State.
