Title
Letter from [Edward Somerset] Earl of Worcester, [Master of the Horse], the Court at Whitehall, to Sir George More and Laurence Stoughton, Esquire. He asks them to examine the constables and some of the inhabitants of the 'liberties' of Compton, Dogfludd, Runwick and Churchold, who have complained that the high constable has laid a higher charge on them than before towards the annual charge of twenty quarters of oats for the royal stables imposed on the hundred of Farnham. A solution should be found which protects the Queen's rights and is 'agreeable to equity and right'.
