Nicolas, Nicholas Harris, Sir
Henry VIII, King of England, 1491-1547; Prices -- Great Britain; Royal households -- Great Britain
Dacres Lord, of the North, 206, _bis_.
William, Lord Dacre, of Gillesland, alias of the North, who
succeeded to that title on the death of his father in 1525, and
died in November, 1563.
---- Lord, of the South, 211.
Thomas Fienes, Lord Dacre. He succeeded his grandfather in 1484,
and died in 1534.
Damask crimson, ingrain, 87.
---- for green, 223.
Damsons brought, 65, 66, 243.
Dancing-dog, paid to a fellow with a, 188.
Darcy lord, 104, 160.
Thomas Darcy. He was summoned to Parliament as Lord Darcy in 1509,
and became a Knight of the Garter; but having delivered Pontefract
castle to the rebels under Robert Aske, he was arraigned on a
charge of high treason, found guilty, and beheaded on the 20th
June, 1538.
---- Sir Arthur, 117, 136.
Second son of Lord Darcy just mentioned. Dugdale says, that in
September, 1534, he was made captain of Jersey, and in the 5 Ed.
VI. Lieutenant of the Tower of London. It is singular, that in
the only instances in which he is noticed in these accounts, it
should be on similar occasions, the repayment of money which he had
disbursed at christenings. He died in 1561, s. p.
Darell Lady, 50, 91.
Dart-heads for, 251.
Datchet, [Co. Bucks,] to the feryman at, 35, 54, 146, 252.
Dates brought, 203.
Daunce Sir John, 112, 113, 114.
David St. money given for keeping his feast, 28, 114, 197.
These were probably gifts to Welshmen, to enable them to celebrate
the feast of their tutelar saint. In Mr. Ellis's _Original
Letters_, First Series, v. i. p. 273, the following notice occurs
among the expences of the Household of the Princess Mary between
1536 and 1545, and which tends to illustrate these entries: "Item,
geven amongs the yeomen of the King's guard, bringing a leke to my
lady's Grace on Saynt David's day, xv_s._"--M.
Davy Hugh, servant to the Princess Mary, 148.
---- Little, 144.
----, with a slit nose, 64.
This elegant soubriquet seems to have been used to distinguish him
from Hugh Davy and little Davy--all of whom had perhaps the same
baptismal name.
---- the footman, paid for his burial expenses, 172.
---- the footman's wife, to, 176.
A gratuity given to the widow of the servant whose burial expenses
are just mentioned.

---- Marshall of the king's hall, 191, 243.
Dean Sub, of the king's Chapel, to the, 46, 64, 149.
Deboyen Baron, in Ireland, 136.
It is difficult to say who was the individual referred to. The only
name at all resembling it in the Irish Peerage, about the period,
is Dunboyne; but that title was not conferred until 1537, six years
after the date in question, when Sir Edmund Butler was so created.
Deer gelded, a, brought, 13.
---- "Quick," brought, 16.
Deer with young.
----, for taking and removing, 19.
---- red, brought, 100, 184.
----, a tame, brought, 149.
