Notes

The court has received a letter from the Lord Protector recommending the condition of Mary Burden, her husband having died in parliament's service in Ireland. She has been allowed several sums and has often promised to be contented therewith, but now prays more because of poverty, so she is given £5 and she promises not to trouble the court again.
