by Vs or by Our late deare Sister Queene Elizabeth made to any person or persons bodies politique and corporate for the transporting or carrying of Calue-skinnes out of this Realme and Dominions of England and Wales but that they and euery of them may from time to time freely enioy the benefit of all such former Grants and Licenses so by Vs or by the said late Queene Elizabeth formerly made Granted in as ample maner as if these present Letters Patents had neuer beene had or made any thing before in these Presents mentioned to the contrary notwithstanding Although expresse mention of the true yearely value or certainty of the premisses or any of them Or of any other guift or Grant by Vs or any of Our Progenitors or Predecessors to the said Iames Maxwell before these times made in these Presents is not made Or any Statue Act ordinance prouision Proclamation or restraint before this time had made set forth ordained or prouided or any other thing matter or cause whatsoeuer to the contrary notwithstanding In witnes whereof We haue caused these Our Letters to be made Patents Witnes Our Selfe at Westminster the Twelfth day of Iune in the Thirteenth yeare of Our Raigne of England France and Ireland and of Scotland the Eight and Fortieth A Copie of the Lord Treasurers Letter directed to Sir Iohn VVolstenholme Knight Henry Garway and Abraham Iacob Esquires Farmers of his Maiesties Customes AFter my hearty commendations Whereas the Kings Maiestie by his Highnes Letters Patents bearing Date the XII day of Iune in the XIII yeare of his Raigne did Grant vnto Iames Maxwell Esquire a License for XXI yeares from and after the expiration surrender or other determination of the like License formerly Granted to Arthur Bassano and others which was determined some yeares agoe for the said Iames Maxwell by himselfe his Deputies Seruants or Factors to prouide and buy within the Realme of England and Dominions of Wales the whole number of Eighteene thousand Dickers of Calue-skinnes accompting ten dozen to euery Dicker and the same to Ship and transport in any Ship or Vessell in any Ports of England or Dominion aforesaid the Ports of Chester and Leuerpoole onely excepted paying vnto his Maiestie for euery Dicker shipped as aforesaid the some of fiue shillings the payment whereof to be made to the hands of his Highnes Collectors of Customes and Subsidies in any Port or Creeke where the same shall be shipped And withall straightly prohibiting the transportation of any Calue-skinnes by any other then the said Iames Maxwell his Deputies Factors and Seruants By which said Letters Patents his Maiestie giueth straight commaund to all his Highnes Officers what soeuer to be ayding and assisting to the said Iames Maxwell in the execution of the premises when they shall be thereunto required Notwithstanding Master Maxwell enformeth me that some quantities of Calue-skinnes haue beene shipped out of some of the out Portes without any License from or notice thereof had by himselfe or his Assignes Now seeing that not onely his Maiesties Letters Patents aforesaid giue straight charge to the contrary but also by a Statute in the XVIII yeare of her late Maiesties Raigne a penaltie of forfaicture of all Leather shipped without License and treble the value thereof is imposed vpon the Owners of the same And further the like penalty is set vpon all Customers Comptroulers Farmers and Superuisors of Customs and Subsidies that shall not be accomptant to his Maiestie for the Custome thereof besides the forfaicture of the shippes wherein it is shipped and the Masters and Mariners of the same shippes to forfaict all their goods and to haue a yeares imprisonment These are therefore to pray and require you not onely to giue straight order to all your Deputies in such Ports as Master Maxwell or his Assignes shall nominate vnto you to see the contents of the said Letters Patents duely effected but also to signifie this charge hereby giuen by me to all the Customers Comptrollers and Searchers of the seuerall Ports that they duely obserue the same vpon paine of the penalty set by the said Statute which shall surely be inflicted vpon them if they offend And for their better direction Master Maxwell will send to euery Custome-house a printed Copie of the said Letters Patents that euery man whom it shall concerne may take speciall notice thereof And hereof praying you not to faile I bid you farewell From the Court at Whitehall this second of February 1622.
