Credible performance of the joynt service would be work sufficient for such a Treasurer as intended to deal safely for himself and justly with all men that should lend their moneys The said Lord Goring taking ill my refusal seeks amongst us for one to serve his turn and at last prevailed with Mr. Nulls now Sir John to promise the said Lord his assistance conditionally to make him treasurer which the L. Goring did perform did put me from that very place which first induced me to meddle with the Farmes and this was effected the third day of Novem. 1638 at the Lord Gorings house in Tower-street At which time if I could have had my twenty thousand pounds again have bin disengaged I had withdrawn my self and bin freed of the great pressures I have since undergone but God had nor so appointed I was caught for want of judgment or foresight and therefore was author of mine own wo The said Master Nulls now sir John being so chosen treasurer and 500. li per ann. allowed him for his intended good service he being to give security for ten thousand pounds to keep exact accompts deliver them unto the Farmers at all times upon demand and to pay no considerable sums of money but by order and direction of the said Farmers or three or more of them the very same day were the receipts divided and the Lord Goring was to have the subsidy of Tobacco and impost of Currants in London and the Out ports c. The treasurer immediately after began to lay about him and under colour of being provided of money for the joynt service he taketh up at interest all the money he could Compasse that is to say thirty thousand pounds more then there was any joynt occasion to use and did make particular use thereof for the reimbursing himself of what money he had formerly lent the Lord Goring for his own sinister end as aâ—oresaid breaking the trust reposed in him and lending it without my knowledge and for ought I could ever discover without any sufficient warrant since I am sure he cannot shew my hand to any such warrant though my share was the greatest next unto the Lord Gorings neither was there left any latitude in our articles of agreement to lend any money at al much less such vast sums unto a noble man of a fortune so perplexed as his Lordship was understood to be at that time the orders themselves speaking no such language as you may discern by the copie of them drawn out of the Register Book kept by him that was secretary to the Farmers the originall by Gods providence is now in my possession and ready to be shewed unto any person that shal desire to be satisfied in that particular the dates of the said orders and the expressions do follow verbatim 18.
