77. WARRANT FOR COLLECTION OF KING'S SILVER [c. 1465]

Thomas Stonor purchased Rotherfield Peppard from his step-father Richard Drayton in 1465, but agreed to reconvey it to Drayton and his wife for the term of their lives (Ancient Deeds, C. 6944, see Vol. ii, p. 174). The reconveyance was possibly effected by a fine, in which case this warrant may have reference thereto. The original is in Ch. Misc., 37, iii, 20.
