Extract

Two documents disclosing an incident in the life of the celebrated historian Polydore Vergil, which have hitherto escaped the research of biographers, are to be found in the Memoranda Roll of the King's Remembrancer of the Exchequer, Trinity term, 19 Henry VII., membrane xv and ibidem dorso (A.D. 1504). Of these the first refers to an illegal exchange negotiated on October 19, 1503, with a merchant of Florence; the second to an illegal exchange negotiated on March 8, 1504, with a merchant of Genoa. In both cases an information is laid against Polydore Vergil as defendant.
