The Fenn family has an association with the Wax Chandlers - or the Tallow Chandlers' Company as they are known today. At one stage in their history, they had just as many, if not more, salt traders amongst their members as the Salters' Company itself. It is likely that salt was an important part of the tallow chandlers' trade, in just the same way that many members of the Salters weren't actually involved in the salt trade - an example of a broad-minded company when it came to recruiting its membership. The Grocers' Company has had no connection with the Grocery trade since the seventeenth century. Together with the other ancient City Companies, The Grocers' Company lost its assets in the Great Fire (1666) and when it reformed it was as the educational and charitable body which it still is today.

I gave leave to Robert Fynne of this Parish to digg in ye half acre meadow belonging to this vicarage only to raise a little Mould to better one Part of his Standard Fence lying against ye Meadow which now looks like a Ditch but ye owners or mensuers of that land on ye east Side of ye Meadow have no Ditch in ye Meadow as I can testify by my Hand - L Leake Vicar.

Isaac Austin's map shows a Great Bricett post mill at that time mainly drawn to show the lands of "Briset Hall" belonging to Kings College Cambridge, depicts a windmill south of the church possibly in the tenancy of Robert. The manor of Great Bricett along with the priory of St Leonard at Bricett was part of the original endowment granted to King's College Cambridge at its Foundation by Henry VI in 1444. The lands were eventually sold by the College in 1921

1727.
Great Bricett Mill: And whereas I am seised to me and my heirs and assigns according to the custom of the Manor of Great Briset and situate in Briset a certain messuage or Tenement with a Wind mill and the land and all edifices and all appurtenances thereunto belonging I do give and bequeath unto my son Abraham ffynn.
1749
Why was Robert left out of his father's will. I suspect that Robert was well set up financially by his father following completion of his apprenticeship and marriage and did well for himself as a landowner and eventually parish officer in Offton. By the time his father died in 1708 Robert had probably outgrown his family and established himself away from Kenton. A family dispute cannot be discounted all too common, there are many reasons to account for why he was not mentioned. He was possibly better placed than his siblings and so was excluded.

SRO searches 2017 - by Y Massingham.
In an effort to find an entry of marriage for Robert and Mary I searched FB16/D1/1 Offton Original Parish Register 1561 - 1719, for the years 1700 to 1715, but I did not find one. I also looked in FB15/D1/2 Barking Original Parish Register 1692 - 1728, (as your own notes indicate their first two children, Mary and Robert, were baptised in Barking in 1705/6), for the years 1700 to 1715, but again did not find an entry. I also searched FB44/D1/2 Kenton Original Parish Register 1684 - 1776, and can confirm the following entry found therein:-
Robert FfENN and Mary Smith were married [difficult to decipher possible day and month] anno domini 1703.
SFO FB44/D1/2 Kenton Original Parish Register 1684 - 1776
I followed this up by searching the entries after this up to 1706, to see if there were any subsequent baptism entries in this parish of Kenton for children of Robert and Mary FfENN, but I did not find any. This may indicate that this couple moved away from the parish of Kenton where they were married, or that they remained but did not have any children in the first 5 or so years after marriage.

Robert & Mary Fenn and family are a good fit to the Fenn/Fynn's of Ofton and Coddenham, however the Debenham death notice "Mary Fenn buried at St Mary Debenham 20 May 1704 wife of Robert" must be disproved to this Robert.
The above Will of Robert Fynn of Baylam 1749 goes a considerable way in doing this.

The notes you have supplied list document FB44/G1/1 Overseers Account Book Kenton 1768 - 1783, with a note that it is in a very poor condition. However, this has recently been conserved so I was able to look through it for any mention of FENN, as apprenticeships were often arranged through the Poor Relief system of the parish. However, whilst this document has been conserved it remains difficult to read, and I did not see any relevant entries.
There is also a collection of Overseers' books for the parish of Coddenham, starting with FB37/G1/1 1678 - 1702, which I have accessed, but this is in a difficult, close worded writing that is hard to read and so would take a considerable time to research properly.

Another question is who was the Robert Fenn apprentice below. Where was his apprenticeship served and what were his family's connections to the Guilds?
London Apprenticeship Abstracts 1700
Fenn Robert son of John, Kenton, Suffolk gentleman to Thomas Cave 2 Dec 1695 12 Mar
1699/1700 turned over to Thomas Dyer, citizen & salter the Grocers Company.
Ref: British Origins.net
The Salters Company in 2015 advise that the Salters' Dictionary of Members, which includes all the details extracted from the Salters' Company apprenticeship (from 1678) and freedom (from 1716) shows:
There is nobody by the name of John Fenn or Robert Fenn listed in the Dictionary.
There is nobody by the name of Thomas Cave listed in the Dictionary.
There are references to two members named Thomas Dyer in the Dictionary: 1) Thomas Dyer, made a freeman or member of Salters, 6 January 1646/7 (at this time, the new year didn't begin until late March); 2) the same Thomas Dyer as mentioned in your reference from British Origins.net , but sadly no further details about him are included in the Dictionary, and I'm afraid that there are no address details either (this was very rare in the earlier registers).
The word 'citizen' in your British Origins reference does mean citizen of the City of London.

General Notes:
Mike Fenn writes 27 May 2018.
A Mary Smith is listed in Barking parish register as baptised 17 (?) September 1686 daughter of John Smith and Mary his wife. The date in Sept is difficult to decipher. This ties in perfectly with our family. The Bildeston entry on several Ancestry trees is a complete red herring. John Smith married Mary Parker in Barking in 1685 (Findmypast - Boyds). There are plenty of Smith burials in Barking.

Not proven to this Edward Betts
Research Notes:
An Edward Betts and Deborah Orbell married 27 Nov 1733 at Milding (Milden) SFK
Ancestry IGI Film 989983 (Not searched).
This may indicate Edward married only once
Edward married Ann ORBELL [21847].
Children from this marriage were:
i. Ambrose BETTS [20594] died on 11 Apr 1826.
ii. Margaret BETTS [21837] was buried in Aug 1780.
iii. Edward BETTS [21850] was born about 1736 and died about 1826 aged about 90.
iv. Ann BETTS [21838] was born about 1754 and died on 29 Mar 1827 aged about 73.
Edward next married Deborah [21836]. Deborah was buried in Jun 1791.
The child from this marriage was:
39 i. Deborah BETTS [21849] (born in 1726 - died on 14 Jul 1809)
79. Deborah was buried in Jun 1791.
Research Notes:
The Betts family are unproven and developed from Family Tree's in the Liveing Archive.
It is quite likely Deborah was the mother of some of Edwards children, Deborah Betts has been placed as the daughter of Deborah based on her name and birthdate
Deborah married Edward BETTS [20593]. Edward was buried in Mar 1780.
80. John ALSTON Jnr [4025], son of Daniel ALSTON of Edwardstone [117] and Margaret PAINE of Milden [118], was baptised on 4 Dec 1664 in Edwardstone SFK and was buried on 26 Jun 1742 in Edwardstone SFK.
General Notes:
Some researchers consider John Alston [164] bap 20 Jul 1655 s Samuel & Mary may be the ancestor of the Nayland Family
John sonne of Daniell Alstone & Margarett his wife baptised 4 Dec 1664 Edwardstone. IGI & Edwardstone Parish Transcripts Alstoniana.
He is described as John Alston Snr in this tree this ignores the fact that he was described as Jnr at his son's baptism.
That this John was a farmer of Edwardstone and had these four sons etc is based on the old tree below:
Alstoniana Pg 371

This tree is inconclusive but cannot be ignored for line of names and Edwardstone roots.
That birth or baptism records of 3 of John's sons have not been knowingly found indicate he might have been living away from Edwardstone at some point, or that they are recorded at the same location as his untraced marriage, probably his wife's home?

Research Notes:
Edwardstone Vicarage,
1st March, 1898.
Dear Sir,
At last I am able to send you copies of all the Alston baptisms marriages and burials recorded from 1646 to 1760
Our registers only date from 1645 therefore all previous books must have been either lost or destroyed. I had no idea when I first wrote to you that there were so many entries. . . . . I have spent hours and hours in searching the registers and in deciphering the indistinct writing.
I shall not forget about the memorial slabs and the "New House" Believe me,
Yours faithfully,
(Rev.) PAKENHAM WEST.
Edwardstone Vicarage
10 March, 1898.
Dear Sir, . . . . . I think it is most probable that the older Registers were destroyed in Cromwell's time. No doubt they contained many interesting records of your ancestors.
I enclose copies of inscriptions on memorial slabs, which were removed to the Lady Chapel about the year 1878 ; formerly they lay in the nave and side aisle but they are less likely to be damaged in their present position.
With regard to the New House I have made many enquiries.
It was not Edwardstone Hall because the Brands occupied that house and it is mentioned on their tombs in the Church. Nor the Grove which was a large house built last century by Colonel Waring during the lifetime of an old parishioner's (aged 85) grandfather and pulled down about 70 years ago by Richard Waring. (It was in fact the Grove ELF 2001) Nor the Lodge which is a small modern house so that I have come to the conclusion that the New House was either Edwardstone House or a smaller house about 500 yards nearer to Boxford.
May yet be able to find out which of these was built by Isaac Alston.
Believe me, yours faithfully,
(Rev.) PAKENHAM WEST.

Comments on John Alston [4025] son of Daniel & Margaret:
That John's parents are Samuel and Mary was suggested by Dr E L Fenn in 1898 but not accepted by Cresswell, or E L Fenn in 2001 who conjectures that the biblical christian names are more likely to have come down from Daniel and Margaret and Martha was used for a two daughters by son Jacob and a daughter by son Samuel.
John sonne of Daniell Alstone & Margarett his wife baptised 4 Dec 1664 Edwardstone. IGI & Edwardstone Parish Transcripts Alstoniana.
John is described as John Jnr as father to some of his children? Perhaps Jnr in relation to John [164] the cousin to differentiate the John Alston's in that generation, there being only a 9 yr age difference between [4025 & [164] ?
A John Allston was born 1666 Newton IGI no parents detailed but a wife shown Elizabeth Harris.

The Henry Corry Papers (1951) from Edwardstone Hall were removed from the Bury RO some years ago, and the researcher (E L Fenn 2011) has not been able to access them. It is felt that they may throw some light on the correct pedigree of John Alston [164] and his family
Shirley Taylor of Rogers Farm writes 2004: after researching Suffolk. Essex and Aylesbury Archives and finding very little on the house we feel that they must have a pile of documents Freddie did admit to this when we bought the farm from him We looked in the Aylesbury Archives as we think Lord Howe may have had a connection with Siam Hall (he certainly did with Rogers) and all his documents have been lodged there. If necessary Pat may go back there and do some more research amongst his documents
Edwardstone 1742, a John Alston is buried, this has been taken to be John Alston [4025]
Edwardstone 1742 sale of lands & houses owned John Snr by heir John Jnr.
A John Alston died 1 Feb 1731/2 at Stoke by Nayland Could this be John Alston [8188].

4. John Alston Snr & Jnr: Bonds for debt & covenant, 24 Aug 1728 Snr & 8 Mar 1729 Snr/Jnr.
Agreement between two people to pay a financial penalty if certain conditions or actions are not performed.
Features of a bond:
Usually written on parchment until c.17th century; usually paper afterwards
In two parts
first part written in Latin until 1733
deed poll (straight top edge not in form of an indenture)
seal
Important words and phrases:
The person binding himself is called the 'obligor'. The person to whom he is bound is called the 'obligee'.
Bonds are always made up of two parts:
1. The 'obligation'. In the obligation, the names of the parties are given, the obligor states that he is bound to the obligee, the penal sum is given, and the date. This part of a bond was in Latin until 1733, except during the Commonwealth period in the mid-seventeenth century when it was in English
2. The 'condition'. This part of a bond gives the details of what the obligor is promising to do. At the end, a clause states that if he does what he promises, the bond will become null and void. If he does not, then it will remain in force and he becomes liable to pay the penal sum. This part of a bond was normally in English, even in the medieval period
Early bonds usually had the obligation on one side and the condition on the other side, but by the seventeenth century the two parts were written on the same side, one above the other.
The key words to look out for are:
[Latin] Noverint universi per presentes ... teneri et firmiter obligari
[English] Know all men by these presents ... am held and firmly bound
There are three common types of bond:
1. Bond for Debt. These bonds secured the repayment of a sum of money. The penal sum was usually twice the sum which was owed. Bonds for debt were often drawn up in connection with a mortgage and were used to strengthen the covenants for repayment in the mortgage deed. Other bonds for debt might refer to the payment of an annuity, or simply a sum of money lent privately between two people. The words to look out for here are:
"if the within bounden AB shall pay or cause to be paid ... the sum of ... with lawful interest..."
2. Bond for Performance of Covenants. These bonds were connected with another deed drawn up on the same date, and were used to make sure that the covenants referred to in the deed were kept to - for instance, building a house to a particular specification, or producing title deeds on request. The covenants themselves are not repeated in the bond, so the deed needs to be present in order to make sense of this type of bond. The operative words are:
"if the within bounded AB shall keep and perform the several covenants ..."
3. Bond for Quiet Possession. These bonds were also connected with other deeds, especially conveyances or leases. They strengthened the warranty clause in the deed to make sure that the new owner or tenant was not subjected to any disturbance. The operative words here are:
"if the within bounden AB shall have and peaceably enjoy..."

John married Martha CRABB of Wethersfield ESS [5349] on 24 Mar 1682/83. Martha was born about 1653 in Wethersfield ESS, was baptised on 17 Apr 1653 in Wethersfield ESS, died on 20 Sep 1728 in Edwardstone SFK aged about 75, and was buried on 3 Mar 1727/28 in Edwardstone SFK. Another name for Martha was Mary STOCK (ALSTONIANA).
Children from this marriage were:
40 i. Samuel ALSTON [640] (born about 1690 - died on 20 Feb 1754, buried in Edwardstone SFK)
ii. Thomas ALSTON [4905] was born about 1693, died on 12 Jun 1774 aged about 81, and was buried in Jun 1774 in Family Vault Edwardstone.
iii. Jacob ALSTON of Wrens Polstead [948] was baptised on 21 Jun 1696 in Edwardstone SFK, died on 18 May 1760 aged 63, and was buried on 23 May 1760 in Edwardstone SFK.
John next married Elizabeth COLLINS [7319] on 30 Sep 1679. Elizabeth was buried on 10 Sep 1683 in Edwardstone SFK.
General Notes:

The child from this marriage was:
i. John ALSTON Inn Holder [3130] was born about 1680, was baptised on 23 Jul 1682 in Edwardstone SFK, and was buried on 15 Jan 1761 in Nayland SFK.
81. Martha CRABB of Wethersfield ESS [5349], daughter of William CRABB [26812], was born about 1653 in Wethersfield ESS, was baptised on 17 Apr 1653 in Wethersfield ESS, died on 20 Sep 1728 in Edwardstone SFK aged about 75, and was buried on 3 Mar 1727/28 in Edwardstone SFK. Another name for Martha was Mary STOCK (ALSTONIANA).
General Notes:
A search of the Edwardstone Registers at Bury reveals a burial 3 Mar 1728 Martha wife of John Alston this conflicts with the MI below.
On an Altar tomb in Edwardstone is the following "Here lieth the body of Martha the wife of John Alston of this Parish Farmer who departed this life 20 Sept 1728 aged 75. There is no burial entry in the Edwardstone Register?
2003 researched Wethersfield register at ERO very damaged with damp, also Transcription ref T/R 55/1 1640's - 1660's no sign of a Stock family.
It is uncertain as to whether this is the correct name, the children attributed to Martha by Cresswell from an old damaged pedigree (pg 371 Alstoniana) do not fit when compared to the IGI and comments by Dr E L Fenn ( pg 357 Alstoniana). They more comfortably fit with the mothers name as Mary. Mary Stock or like cannot be traced on the IGI to fit.

Delft
"It was a quiet cheerful, yet somewhat drowsy little city that ancient Burgh of Delft. The placid canals by which it was intersected in every direction were all planted with like pairing umbrageons rows of limes and poplars, and along these water highways the traffic of the place glided so noiselessly that the town seemed abode of silence and tranquillity. The streets were clean and airy, the houses well built, the whole aspect of the place thriving"

General Notes:
Biographia Navalis or Impartial Memoirs of the lives and characters of Officers of the Navy of Great Britain:
"William Julius was on the 10 June 1693 appointed Captain of the Chester of 42 guns, at that time in the West Indies, under the Command of Sir Francis Wheeler. He continued on the same station after the principle part of the fleet had returned to England with the Admiral, being left behind, together with some of the smaller ships, for the better protection of commerce.
In the month of April 1694 while cruising off Dominica, he fell in with and drove on shore a large French privateer mounting 18 guns. The vessel took fire and blew up, the crew unhappily perished but for a very small number which were saved by the Chester's boats.
Captain Julius had a short time after this the great fortune to take several valuable prizes, and with his success returned to England about the close of the same year.
Early the following spring still remaining in the Chester he was employed to cruise in the Channel under the orders of Sir Cloudsley Shovel, but does not appear to have met with any opportunity to distinguishing himself worth recounting. In 1696 he was promoted to the "Colchester" a large fourth rate, and again sent to the West Indies under the command of the Admiral's Neville and Mees. He was concerned in various land enterprises under Mees, which took place and were rather numerous during this expedition. Remaining behind in the Colchester after the rest of the fleet returned to England, he unhappily fell victim the following year to the climate, which had in the preceding one been so remarkably fatal to such a number of his contempories. His body was brought back to England and interred in Westminster Abbey,
JULIUS JOTTINGS.
CAPTAIN WILLIAM JULIUS.
William Julius, whose monument we here reproduce, was on the 10th of June, 1693, appointed Commander of the "Chester," of 42 guns, at that time in the West Indies, under the command of Sir Francis Wheeler. He continued on the same station after the principal part of the fleet had returned to England with the Admiral, being left behind, together with some of the smaller ships, for the better protection of commerce. In the month of April, 1694, whilst cruising off Dominica, he fell in with and drove on shore a large French privateer, mounting 18 guns. The vessel almost immediately afterpards took fire and blew up, her crew unhappily perishing, except a very small number, which were saved by the " Chester's " boats. Captain Julius had, a short time after this, the good fortune to take several valuable prizes, and, with this success, returned to England about the close of the same year. Early in the following spring, still remaining in the " Chester," he was employed to cruise in the Channel, under the orders of Sir Cloudesley Shovel, but does not appear to have met with any opportunity of distinguishing himself worth recounting. In 1696 he was promoted to the " Colchester," a large fourth-rate, and again sent to the West Indies, under the command of the Admirals Neville and Mees. He was concerned in all the little land enterprises under Mees, which took place and were rather numerous during this expedition. Remaining behind in the " Colchester," after the rest of the fleet returned to England, he unhappily fell a victim in the following year, to the climate, which had in the preceding one been so remarkably fatal to such a number of his contemporaries. His body was brought back to England and interred in Westminster Abbey, where a plain marble tablet has been erected to his memory, bearing the following inscription : " Near this place lyeth the body of Captain William Juliis, late Commander of His Majesty's ship, the " Colchester," who departed this life the 3rd of October, 1698, aged 33 years." " Biographia Navalis," or Impartial Memoirs of the lives and characters of Officers of the Navy of Great Britain, by J. Chamock. The Tablet is in the S. Aisle of Westminster Abbey, near Poets' Corner.\emdash Ed,
Westminster Abbey records him as follows:
"In the south choir aisle of the Abbey is a small marble tablet for Captain William Julius. The border is decorated with flowers and cherub heads with a winged death's head at the base. The coat of arms was re-painted in the 1960s when the tablet was cleaned. The inscription reads:
"Near this place lyeth interr'd the Body of Capt. William Julus [Julius] late Commander of His Ma. Ship the Colchester who departed this life ye 3d of Oct. 1698 Aged 33 years"
The name is definitely Julius in the Abbey burial register so the painter of the inscription made a slight mistake. The arms are "argent, a fess azure between three mullets of six points gules, a crescent for difference or" (ie. a silver ground with a blue horizontal bar across the centre and three red six-point stars). The crescent, which indicates a second son, was re-painted red instead of gold. These seem to be the arms of the family of Julius of Richmond in Surrey. William served in the ship Chester on the West India station and had an illegitimate son William, of the island of St Kitts, and an illegitimate daughter Jemima, of the island of Nevis. They were provided for in his will and the rest of the estate was left to his sister Elizabeth, wife of Thomas Westcott of St Kitts."

Notes on Westminster Abbey Monuments pg 243 says "His monument states that he was Commander of HM's ship the "Colchester" and died 3 Oct aged thirty three. His remains were transferred to the New Vault, St Pauls, Covent Garden, on the 26 Sept 1771."
Ref St Pauls Burial Register Covent Garden.
A little farther Weftward there is a neat white Marble Monument erected to the Memory of William Julius, Commander of the Colchefter Man of War, who died October the 3d, 1698. aged 33.
St Peters Westminster - page 73.
Where William actually died is unclear, the dates of his death and burial, and the list of beneficiaries in his will would indicate he was ashore, and in England. His will was dated the day before his death, and proved the day before his burial, by his friend Archibald Hutchinson of the Middle Temple Esq.
William's will indicates he did not marry and his children were from separate liaisons.

Captain Julius's sailing orders, 6 Nov., 1697. To sail to Barbados, touching at Dominica on the way in order to embark the English prisoners brought by the flag of truce from Martinique.

Deposition of Captain William Julius, of H.M.S. Colchester. That it was at his proposal that Tankard was sent to Martinique, to fetch prisoners, on her way to Barbados. The said prisoners were to have been transferred to the Colchester at Dominica, and Julius had begged Tankard to give out that he was going back to Antigua, lest the released prisoners, on learning that they were to be shipped on the Colchester, should mutiny and run away with the ship. 21 December, 1697.

431. VII. Deposition of Henry Walrond. Towards the end of September last a French flag of truce arrived at Antigua from Martinique. I was then a volunteer on board H.M.S. Jersey, Captain Edmond Bugdon, then lying in St. John's Harbour. I was ordered to attend the Captain in his pinnace to board and search the flag of truce, when finding a quantity of French wine and brandy on her the Captain seized her and reported as much to Governor Codrington. The Governor ordered him to restore the sloop and goods. The Captain answered that he could not discharge her except by due course of law and asked that she might be brought to trial. I myself saw the letters that passed. Soon afterwards the Governor sent a second order in writing to discharge the ship, which the Captain refused to do, and some days later the Governor came down to St. John's and sent for Captain Bugdon. I was present at the meeting, and heard the Governor say, "Sirrah, I wonder how you can have the impudence to "look me in the face after being such a rogue to seize "a flag of truce and disobeying my commands." He added that Bugdon was a rascal, saying, "Get you "gone and discharge her, or I will take care of you,' or words to that effect. Bugdon thereupon left him but refused to discharge the ship. A few days later the Governor sent a message on board the Jersey to summon Captain Bugdon before himself and Council. Captain Watts and Captain Julius were both with him, and I also was present. The Governor commanded Captain Bugdon to discharge the flag of truce, and on his refusal threatened to turn him out of commission. He complained to his Councillors and the two Captains that Bugdon ought to be tried and said that he only awaited the arrival of Captain Simmonds at St. John's in order to try him. He said that the flag of truce should not be tried; and a few days afterwards she was discharged by his order and sailed away. Captain Hartman, late commander of Governor Codrington's sloop Barbuda, taken by the French outside St. Christophers, was a prisoner on board the flag of truce, and informed me that no harm could be done to him for the goods brought down in the flag of truce without doing harm to the Governor, who was concerned in them; for several of the goods in her belonged to the Governor and were bought for him. Sworn as No. III. 2 pp.

About four years ago James Weatherhill of Antigua, commander of the privateer sloop Charles of Jamaica, took a Spanish merchantman of great value. It is credibly reported that several Spaniards were killed in defending their ship against these pirates, and those who survived were inhumanly abused. Happening to discourse with our Lieutenant-Governor, John Yeamans, I mentioned that I had heard that Captain Julius of H.M.S. Jersey and John Perrie, now Provost Marshal of the Leeward Islands, went down in a little sloop (which Julius commanded) to a Spanish town where Weatherhill was lying with his prize, that there Julius had traded with the pirate, and that I wondered why Governor Codrington had not prosecuted Weatherhill for piracy and Julius and Perrie for trading with them. Mr. Yeamans replied that he had advised the Governor to prosecute them and that he drew a general warrant for their apprehension, which Governor Codrington promised should be executed. But he never did so, and instead thereof afterwards preferred Julius to the command of H.M.S. Chester, though he had sworn in the company of Lady Stapleton and others that Julius should be hanged. He even refused to eat some bacon which Julius had bought of Weatherhill. I had this account from Mrs. Katharine Fenton, who was present, but is now dead. Lady Stapleton, who is in England, could doubtless confirm it. When Weatherhill committed this piracy John Perrie kept a tavern in St. Johns, Antigua; and Perrie harboured Weatherhill in his house until Perrie could assure him that he might safely appear. Weatherhill has since been so impudent as to bring on his own trial at the Grand Sessions, at the same time as when Robert Arthur was tried, but the Court would not permit Weatherhill's trial to be brought on. Perrie was shortly afterwards promoted from his tavern to Governor Codrington's service. This incestuous person has married his own brother's widow, for which he was prosecuted by the Assembly of Antigua, but the proceedings were obstructed by Governor Codrington. Perrie is his prime vizier who manages the most important affairs of this high and mighty sultan, as well in relation to civil authority as to secret trade with foreigners. If such actions correspond with the character which the Council and Assembly of Antigua have given to Governor Codrington, with intent to invalidate my statements as to Captain Arthur, then vice triumphant is esteemed virtue, but their partiality is explained by their combining with him to trade with the French during the war, for which see John Clarke's deposition annexed. Colonel Rowland Williams admitted that he was concerned in the ship bought by Martyn and Roe at Martinique, and Edward Byam acknowledged that he had received excise for the brandy which they bought at Martinique. The foregoing will shew you how faithfully the King's interest has been promoted by those entrusted with the Government here. These and many other abominable practices of Governor Codrington have induced me to prefer all my complaints against him. I have had frequent solicitations from his favourites to dissuade me from proceeding therein, but I have not gone with the multitude to flatter a man whose will is law, though I have suffered much since I had my difference with Governor Codrington, but I had rather forego all I possess than submit to arbitrary power. I expect great opposition in the undertaking, but am comforted to think that my judges are men of honour and integrity. Signed, Edward Walrond. 5½ pp. Endorsed, Recd. 6 May, 1698. Annexed,

Warrant of the Deputy Governor of Antigua for the Provost Marshal to bring John Lucas and his son-in-law, John Austin, before Council. 12 April, 1697. Inscribed, I [Lucas] appeared to this warrant and had no other comfort by the Governor's passion, who, when I demanded attestations of Julius's usage, shook his cane and threatened to break my head, calling me villain and rascal; but incestuous Perrie is a very honest fellow in the Governor's esteem. ½ p.

616. I. Deposition of Walter Quarme before the Governor and Council of Antigua. 14 April, 1698. That he heard John Lucas say that the Governor had not done him justice in not signing a warrant against William Julius.
Deposition of John Perrie. John Lucas being summoned before Council to answer certain matters, withdrew without orders and afterwards sent in a request for admission, when he asked the Council for attestations that the Governor refused him a warrant of arrest against Captain Julius. Among other words reflecting on the Governor he said that the Governor had not done him justice in refusing the warrant, for he was going to England to prosecute Captain Julius for assaulting him. ½ p.

605. I. John Lucas to Robert, Lord Lucas, Governor of the Tower. Antigua, 25 April, 1698. Your justice, goodness and love of liberty embolden me to lay my case before you. I contracted with one Robert Edgcomb, master of the ship Dolphin of Plymouth, to bring me and my two sons to England, shipped the goods that I required for the voyage, and took out my ticket to leave the island as the law requires. The master, however, by Governor Codrington's order refuses to take me on board, and I am imprisoned upon suspicion of having written a letter of complaints to Admiral Nevill, on which jealousy and suspicion Captain Julius, of H.M.S. Colchester, assaults me in the street and treats me very evilly, to the endangering of my life. I sought all ways and means to have reparation but could obtain nothing but menacing language from Governor Codrington, who in the Council Chamber threatened to break my head, calling me villain and rascal. I am a person of good fame and honest reputation always; I was for some years Speaker of the Assembly and have suffered much by this war, and now I am detained of my liberty in view of the world, which cries out shame on such proceedings. My family is put under great distractions, my estate exhausted, my person like to be destroyed by a withering durance; unreasonable bail is demanded-£500 at a time is nothing-my friends are encumbered with high bonds, and no crimes expressed but mere notions. I desire to be heard before the King and Council, and desired Governor Codrington to let me go, and if he had anything to object I would appear before the King in Council. The Council commanded me to give £500 security for good behaviour and then I might go for England, but it was impossible for me to perform the voyage according to the time fixed for Sessions. I submitted to all this, though I am still detained and sorely oppressed. I beg you to procure me an order to come to England with my children, that I may leave this Colony where I have suffered wrongs and injuries for many years. Signed, John Lucas. P.S.-Since I wrote the above, £5,000 bail is demanded or else close imprisonment, so must be forced to make over my estate. 1½ pp. Endorsed, Recd. Read 27 June, 1698.

The same (John Lucas) to Samuel Proctor. 22 April, 1698. I enclose a bill of lading and invoice for goods shipped in the Dolphin. I was bound home, ready to depart, and had given every security imaginable when the master refused to take me. Tell Mr. Walrond of it and make application to the King and Council, for I am sorely oppressed. Captain Julius assaulted me with intent to murder me; Governor Codrington and Council threaten to beat me, and abuse me for demanding attestations against Julius. My usage is cruel. I dare not express it. Produce this letter before the King and Council.

A number of papers as to John Lucas's case were presented. Order for a letter to the Admiralty asking that Captains Julius and Edgecombe may attend on Monday
House of Commons 28 Feb 1699
A Petition of Captain Edmund Bugden was presented to the House, and read; setting forth, That the Petitioner was Lieutenant of the Colchester, and Captain of the Jersey: and, as such, was concerned in the taking several Prizes about the Leeward Islands; which Christopher Codrington Esquire wrested from the Petitioner, in Wrong to him, and the King; which the Petitioner is ready to prove; and, on the 5th of October 1697, the Lords of the Admiralty sent, by Captain Symonds, an Order for the Petitioner, and Captain Wm. Julius, to return, with his Majesty's Ships under their Command, to Europe, in 60 Days after, unless the General should think fit to detain them longer, for sending his Packet; which he did, for 15 Days; and that Time being also expired, the said General, and Captain Julius, refusing to give the Petitioner any Order for his longer Stay, he returned to England; and gave in his Deposition of the said Frauds to the Commissioners of Trade; after which, the Petitioner was tried by a Court-Martial, for returning home without Order; where Captain Julius producing another Order than what Captain Symonds brought, which was shewn the Petitioner; and falsly deposing, That it was the same; the Court-Martial thereupon sentenced the Petitioner's Pay, amounting to about 260 l. to be forfeited to Greenwich Hospital, and he to be incapable of his Majesty's Service, and to be imprisoned for 12 Months: And praying, That the said Matters may be referred to the Examination of a Committee; whereby the said Frauds may be made appear, and the Petitioner justified.
Ordered, That the said Petition do lie upon the Table.
