“Be it known to you all that we, in consideration of the sum of £946
3s. 8d., of our own legal English money, delivered over for our use
into the hands of our legal treasurer, for the increase of the common
revenue of our crown, by our beloved subject, Robert Broke, Knight,
the sureties having been paid on the said sum of £946 3s. 8d., we
declare that we shall be satisfied, contented, and fully indemnified,
and that thenceforward Robert Broke, his heirs and executors, are to
be exonerated and free from molestation, by force of these present
letters, which we have given and conceded from our own special
goodwill, certain knowledge, and of our own accord; and by these same
present letters we give and concede to the aforesaid Robert Broke the
whole of that manor named Madeley, with all and each of its rights,
