Ffeil NLW MS 1518E - Welsh trade and Anglesey clergy

Arguments against levying an impost for wines brought into Welsh ports, with a transcript of a decree, 19 November 1584, in a cause in the court of the exchequer between John Pooll, deputy farmer of the impost, and John Vaughan and others touching wines discharged at Bewmarres [sic] (cf a statement, temp. James I, on the same question in Cardiff Records, IV, 143-5); a letter, 17 Sepember 1636, from Edmund Griffith (1570-1637), bishop of Bangor, to Sir Thomas Holland, Berw; transcripts of a decree by Sir John Lambe (1566?-1647), read in the church of the Arches, 13 November 1637, touching the case of Williams v. Sir Thomas Holland, and of depositions taken, by commission, at Llanidan, 4-5 January 1637/8, in a case in which Lewis Williams, vicar there, was a defendant, with the opinion of G. Sweitt (see also NLW MS 1546 iii) - a Rowland Williams, curate and schoolmaster, was also involved, and the depositions throw much light on the condition of the clergy in Anglesey.
