desiring leave to ship the other 200 barrels he went to the
Custom House that afternoon and tendered a deposit of goldsmiths'
bills of 135l. to secure the King's Customs for the
whole parcel, but while he was endeavouring to get his deposit
accepted 160 of the 200 barrels were put on board by some of
the officers of the Tower without his order or knowledge, and
also 140 of the 700 barrels. All this is confirmed by the
affidavit of Richard Boys and Jno. Kroger, whom he had
taken to his assistance in shipping said powder. Sir Thomas
Chiceley, the Master of the Ordnance, is of opinion no fraud
was intended. You are therefore to discharge said seizure
and to enter a noli proscqui in case any information be entered
in the Exchequer.

Treasurer Danby to the Mayor and Justices of Tiverton.
Complaint has been lately made to me of great obstructions,
abuses and hindrances which the Collectors and other officers
of Excise meet with in your jurisdiction. I have seen a copy
of a judgment lately given by you upon an information
prosecuted by John Holand, gauger, in which there are some
extraordinary and pregnant expressions. I have also seen
several affidavits concerning the matter and find [I am driven]
to believe that His Majesty's interest was not considered by
you with that zeal and duty as by law you were obliged.
Nevertheless, I, being inclined to believe your failings to be
rather mistakes than contrivances, recommend it to your care
that for the future the laws touching His Majesty's revenue
receive no detriment, and that offenders against whom complaints
are brought before you may not go unpunished,
[which] if you perform you shall receive all just encouragement
in the faithful discharge of your duties, and if you shall
neglect you will draw a just persecution upon yourselves for
your failer therein.

A similar letter to the Mayor and Justices of Shrewsbury
concerning great obstructions to the Excise officers in the
execution of their offices "and in particular have been lately
beaten, wounded, publicly reviled, shott at and other wayes
very [un]civily entreated by Richard and Nehemiah Scott,
common brewers within your city." I recommend the matter
to you and desire you to be very careful in the examination
thereof, in no ways doubting that if the officers had made
their application first to you in an affair so important to His
Majesty's revenue they would have had all due and speedy
redress, for which omission they are to be blamed. After you
shall have fully examined the matter with its circumstances
acquaint me how you find it and what method you take for the
punishment of the offenders.

Treasurer Danby to the Mayor and Justices of Bristol concerning

in the hearing and examination thereof when before you to the
end His Majesty may have right done him : as likewise that
you give directions to the constables at all times, upon reasonable
request, to give their assistance to the gaugers and officers
of Excise in the due execution of their office and in demanding
entrance according to law to all places belonging to persons
chargeable to Excise.
