Notes

The humble supplication of Richard Bond of Easton, gent. sets forth that he served his late Majesty and his father in their civil wars, but has now become aged, very impotent, and unable to maintain himself, and thereupon has besought this court with great humility to consider his low condition. The court, taking the matter into their consideration, has thought fit to order him a pension of £5 a year, to be yearly paid him by the treasurer for maimed soldiers of this division.

NOTE: The fact that this entry is identical to another for Ipswich division suggests either that Richard Bond was to receive pensions from both the Ipswich and Woodbridge divisional treasurers, or alternatively that the justices subsequently decided that he should receive his £5 per annum pension from the treasurer of the Woodbridge division rather than that of Ipswich.
