About the year 1605 the Court were at law with Mr. Frederick as appears
by the Wardens’ accounts, though there is no reference to the subject
of the dispute in the Minutes, beyond the above reference to a surgical
operation performed on Sir A. Cooke, and the controversy about the
Deputy Warden when Mr. Frederick went to Spain. Mr. Frederick was alien
born, and the following order, without doubt, had a reference to this
circumstance:--
