File NLW MS 9064E/1941. - Deposition of the Archbishop of York's opinion of Ellis Wynn,

Deposition, subscribed by Sir Owen Wynn, William Frame, and Hugh Robinson, that the Archbishop of York, at table at Gwydir, did deliver these words: 'I was unhappy in the choice of my servants; if Ellis Wynn had lived he would have made me a huge rich man. He was one I was much beholding unto for his love, for first, unknown unto me and undesired, he bought for me the estate of Penrhyn, full sore against my will, and disbursed the mortgage moneys thereon out of his own. Likewise where he had laid out of his own estate in mortgage upon a manor of one Mr Cecil in Northamptonshire, of the value of £500 per annum, the same forfeited unto him before he died; yet he passing by (all respects to his kindred) bestowed £3,500 out of those moneys upon me, which I received from Mr Cecil after Ellis Wynn's death'.
