"To eyre," in falconry, is to build or rather to brood; hence we must infer that this entry related to a hawk that had been hatched at Elmley. Falcons, for taking up, 20, 24, 187. ----, paid for, 9, 10, 92. These items afford much information on the value of falcons at the period. Two falcons and a goshawk cost 3_l._ Five falcons and a tarsell were worth 8_l._ and five falcons 7_l._ 6_s._ 8_d._; so that the value of a tarsell was about 13_s._ 4_d._ ---- brought, 87, 184, 198. Falconer, paid to a, 129. ---- to, for their coats, 142. ----, and hawks given by the King of France, for the expences of the, 275, 279. Falcons and hawks appear to have been the most frequent, as well as most valued presents, from one prince to another. These accounts present two instances of the kind, the one of the payment of 23_l._ 6_s._ 8_d._ to the bearer of a cast of falcons from the Duke of Ferrara, and the other of a gift of several to Henry, from Francis the First, at Calais. Upon that occasion falconers seem also to have been transferred to Henry's service; for we find a payment of 2_l._ 2_s._ 8_d._ for their exences, (p. 275) whilst some idea may be formed of the number of birds given to Henry from the item of 2_l._ 18_s._ 10_d._ for the expences of them for one month only. "The best falconers were Flemings, and even those who have attended hawks in England, until a late period, were procured from a particular district of Flanders."--M. Farm at Greenwich purchased for Lady Ann Rochford, 113. This entry is more fully noticed at the commencement of the volume, when speaking of ANNE BOLEYN, to whom it related. Farnham, to the keeper of the place of, 151. ---- Park, to the keepers of, Fees of the yeomen of the bows and of the Leshe, 75, 163. Felon, paid for bringing up a, 46. The only thing remarkable in this entry is, that such payments should be made out of the king's privy purse, or if that was the source of such disbursements that there should be so very few entries of the kind in as many years.--See PRISONER and TRAITOR. Feneux Lord, to the keeper of his house, 273. It is almost certain from this item that Henry lodged at Lord Feneux's house when at Canterbury. From the title of "Lord" being applied to him, it would appear that it was the house of Sir John Feneux, who was lord chief justice of England from 1496 to 1526. Fenwolf Morgan, jeweller, 7, 8. "Probably a Welshman; his name would be written Phenwolf, i. e. Wolf's-head."--M. Ferman George, of Waltham, 74. Ferrara Duke of, 198. Ferrers Lord, 62, 64, 86, 144, 145, 232, 240.
