R. saith, that when the aforesaid T.B. the seven and twentieth Day of Ianuary, in the year of the Reign of the said Queen now the fourth, by force and armes the Close of the said J. R. at D. broke, and his Grasse to the value, &c. there late growing, walking with his Feet, there trod down and consumed, and other Inju∣ries, &c. to the great losse, &c. and against the Peace, &c. whereof he saith, he is made worse, and damnified to the value, &c.
