paid for, and she was repaid 5_l._, which she had given to Henry Webb by the King's command. On the 23rd, the same sum was given to her for playing money, in groats, and on the 30th, Henry gave her 100_l._ as a New Years' gift. In February, 1531, her mercer's bill was again paid, and on the 17th, her servant Taylor, received 11_l._ 6_s._ 8_d._ to be "employed about my Lady Anne Rochford's business;" before the end of which month a farm was purchased for her at Greenwich, and for which 86_l._ 13_s._ 4_d._ were given. Her desk was garnished with laten and gold in April following; when her embroiderer was paid for work done for her. Early in May, 40_l._ were given her "to play;" on the 22nd, having lost 12_l._ 7_s._ 6_d._ at bowls to the Sergeant of the Cellar, that sum was paid to him out of the Privy Purse by his Majesty's commands; and on the 10th, eight yards of crimson cloth of gold were bought for her. From that time nothing more is said of Anne Boleyn until December, when her taylor's bill amounting to 28_l._ 6_s._ 4_d._ for her clothes was discharged; shortly after which her skinner's bill of 40_l._ 15_s._ 8_d._ was likewise paid. On the 29th of May, 1532, the King's watermen were remunerated for conveying her to Durham House. In June a splendid cloak and night-gown were purchased, and the price of all the materials, is detailed with the minuteness of a milliner's bill of the present day, from which it seems that both were made of black satin; that the former was edged, and the latter lined with velvet of the same colour; and that the cloak cost altogether 9_l._ 4_s._ 8_d._; whilst the night-gown was lined with black taffeta, and cost 10_l._ 15_s._ 8_d._: at the same time sixteen yards of green damask were also purchased for her.
