The writers have met at Shrewsbury to consider the proposals made by His Lordship to the sheriff of Denbighshire, Sir Thomas Powell, and Richarde Middleton. They cannot approve of other subsidies for the maintenance of the army than what is already agreed upon by anticipation of the King's rents, as the people are 'extremely exhausted by former taxations and much wanting money for want of sale of theire Cattle'. It is hoped that the anticipated rents, amounting to £6000 in Denbighshire, and the revenues of delinquents's estates will prove sufficient. They will endeavour to collect the revenues of all estates to be sequestered. They will encourage the production of arms and ammunition in the county. So many men have been mustered in the county that those who are left are scarcely sufficient for its defence and for the maintenance of husbandry. The county is not proportionately one tenth part of co. Salop. Copy.
