Mansell to the Sec, Windebank, made a state-ment concerning his glass works at Newcastle. He had spent £4, 000 onthe furnaces and employed 60 workmen. Asks for two, three, or fourships to fetch away his glass and to bring coal. The reference to Newcastle in the foregoing is of interest because SirRobert in 1623 had stated that the furnaces erected in London, the Isle ofPurbeck, Milford Haven, and on the Trent had all failed, but that they hadbeen successful at Newcastle-on-Tyne ; it appears to infer that the initialsuccess at Newcastle had been maintained. 1639.

Thewriting upon the parchments in some cases has been almost entirelyremoved, in others blank patches occur with illegible writing surroundingthem. By the natural Law of
