July 1587
July ? | Petition of Lewis Savard of Rouen to the Lords of the Council, touching a ship called the Greyhound, of Newhaven [i.e. Havre de Grace], forced into Guernsey by stress of weather and there seized by the officers of Sir Thos. Leighton, the governor. Came to England in May last, and petitioned their lordships, who granted him letters of assistance and a commission from the Admiralty Court for the recovery of the ship and goods, (fn. 1) but a phrase in his wording of the interrogatories to be put to his witnesses—viz. "merchandises depredées et gastées et decippées par le Sieur Gouverneur" made the Captain of Guernsey so angry that he has sent him up to their lordships in custody, as a malefactor or villain. As he has lost his goods in a free place, and not on the seas by pirates, and has spent 150l. within these five months in trying to recover them, he prays for an absolute answer and speedy dismissal. |
