A Memorial delivered to his Majesty by the Honourable Edward Howard and Bernard Howard of Norfolk the 16th day of November 1676. of what they demand from their Brother the Right Honourable Henry Earl Marshal of England wiih the Grounds and Reasons of and for their said Demands Their Demands are Three 1. THat his said Lordship will please pursuant to his own free offer and promise waive all Acts by them respectively done by which they may in strictness be barred of the Provisions intended them by their late Father out of the overplus of such Lands as were appointed to be sold for the payment of Debts and of the Provisions intended them out of such Lands whereof the now Duke of Norfolk levied a Fine Sur concessit to be subject to such Trusts as their said Father should direct and come to a just Accompt with them for the several benefits which ought to accrue to them upon the said respective Provisions in case no Acts had been done by them to bar them of such benefits The said Accompt to be taken by Referrees to be appointed by an Order of a Court of Equity and they to be armed with a Commission to examine upon Oath and they to settle all the said Accompts and their determination to pass into a Decree so as to oblige a satisfaction of what shall appear due upon such Accompt Or if his Lordship shall refuse this Then That his Lordship will please to let them have those respective allowances of 200 l. per annum apiece which his Lordship formerly allowed them for Diet and Lodgings the arrears thereof to be immediately paid and the growing allowances together with such Rents-charge as have formerly been granted to them out of the Manor of Rotherham to be secured as their Councel shall think safe so that they may have better securities for the same then bare Distresses and may have Lands unincumbred to enter upon and hold in case what shall be due be not paid And all arrears of those Rents-charge to be forthwith satisfied together with the charges occasioned by their being enforced to distrein for the same 2. That those future expectant Interests which their said late Father intended for them out of his Estates in the Counties of Cumberland and Westmerland may be so re-settled as that they may not for the future be barred but may be secured to come unto them according to the intentions of their said Father So that they may not be compelled to trouble a Parliament to relieve them in this particular 3. That they and their Sister the Lady Eliz. Mac Donnel without whose consent they cannot agree this particular point may have a just and full discovery and accompt of their Grandmothers Cabinet and all things therewith delivered unto his Lordship by their Uncle the Lord Viscount Stafford in Trust for all the Children of their said late Father except their Brother Charles and that they may each of them have their just shares of the same in specie or else that they and their said Sister may each of them have the sum of 1000 l. for such their several share with Interest for the said monies from the time of the delivery of the said Cabinet and what was so delivered The Grounds and Reasons of and for the first before mentioned Demand 1. There were Provisions designed as a present maintenance for the said Edward and Bernard and for some other of their Brothers by their said late Father The first was made by their said Father himself out of the overplus of a very great Estate in Lands settled in Trustees for the payment of Debts Upon this there was due to each of them from the Lord Marshal 3000 l. to be paid at the time the said overplus was conveyed to his said Lordship which was in Anno Domini 1659. For which they are to have Interest from that time or else each of them to have one Twelfth part of the Inheritance in specie of the said whole overplus with satisfaction to each of them for the Rents and Profits of such respective Twelfth part from the year 1659. The other Provision was made by the now Duke of Norfolk by the procurement of their said Father who prevailed with the said Duke to levie a Fine Sur concessit for the vesting a very great Estate in Lands in Trustees for the life of the said Duke to be subject to such Trusts as their said Father should direct Upon this Trust there ought to have been due to each of them at Michaelmas 1674. above 12000 l. and from that time during the life of the said Duke above 600 l. per annum And of this last Provision they had no particular knowledge until very lately Yet he did afterwards in the presence of the Right Honourable the Lord Privy Seal and others declare and promise That if they were not fully satisfied that the said Rents of 300 l. apiece by him granted to them were a full satisfaction in value for all that was or could be due unto them upon the said Provisions so by them sold conveyed or released as he affirmed he would waive all Acts done by them which might bar them of any of the said Provisions and come to a just and strict accompt with them in relation to the said Provisions And that if upon such accompt it should appear that there was or could be more due unto them then 2100 l. apiece which was the price for which the said Rents had been granted he would make them a full satisfaction for what upon such Accompt should appear to be yet due unto them This they then believed he would have done but they since find that his Lordship is otherwise resolved and he hath fully made it appear that notwithstanding his said promise he is now resolved to take the full benefit of the Bargains which he affirmeth he hath gained from them for 2100 l. apiece The Grounds and Reasons of and for the second before mentioned Demand 2. Their said late Father taking it for certain that the two Provisions before mentioned would during the life of the said Duke of Norfolk be a reasonable maintenance for those for whom he intended the same was pleased by another Settlement which was of his whole Estate in the Counties of Cumberland and Westmerland to design another Provision for the said Edward and Bernard and two other of their Brothers as an Estate-Tail for the benefit of them and their Children to take effect after the descending of the Dignity of Earl of Arundel upon the Lord Marshal or which Mr. Marriot his Lordships Agent affirms to have been the true intentions of their said late Father upon any of his Issue This Settlement was so drawn as that the said future Estates were to come to the said Edward and Bernard and the said other two Brothers only in case the said Dignity should personally descend and come to the said Lord Marshal But this was not the sole fault in
