* In what way this debt by the late Earl of Wiltshire and Marquis of Winchester had been incurred is nowhere stated, but the sum was large (upwards of 175,0002. of our present money), and Queen Elizabeth was, as we know, very strict in her accounts with debtors. The indorsement on the original parchment-deed is as follows: “A morgage made by the Lo. Marques of divers Mannors unto Sr Thomas (sic) Mildmay, Sr Gilbert Gerrard, and other, to her Matie, for 35,000” dew to her Matie.
