[Sir Christopher Wren,] the Surveyor General [of the Works]
and [Mr. Talman,] Comptroller of same, are called in and their
reports are read. The Surveyor objects against Mr. Latham
(in the Comptroller's certificate) for a madman and says the work
[the new buildings of their Majesties' Palace at Hampton Court]
has stood a new trial in a hurrycane. Mr. Tallman says my Lord
Chamberlain's lodgings kept the winds absolutely from this
building and that Latham is not mad. Mr. Banks says there
are 24 peers [piers] next the garden and but 4 stones crackt, and
the cracks no bigger than a hair's breadth ; that the building
every day it stands is stronger and grows lighter. Mr. Tallman
says every pier is cracked that one may put his finger in. Mr.
Oliver says none of the masons Mr. Tallman brought understood
so good work as this is. Mr. Talman says that Pierce, Tompson
and another (in his certificates) are three masons that Sir Christopher
employs, that the piers are all hollow and crampt with iron to
keep them together. Sir C. Wren : "What was done for greater
caution ought not to be maliciously interpreted." Tallman :
"Pray let 6 be chosen by me and 6 by you to judge in this
matter."
My Lords think they'l never agree, one part will say one thing,
th' other another.
Wren : he putt it on this—a man cannot putt his finger in
the cracks.
Mr. Talman says they are stopped.
My Lords say this is a matter of fact : that they'l appoint
indifferent persons to view the same and (after the officers of
the Works withdrew) agreed upon Serjeant Ryly, Sir Samuel
Morland and Mr. Fitch, who are to have an extract of the reports,
to examine the cracks etc. in the building and to give their opinion
by Wednesday morning whether they think it will stand or no.
(Write the said Moreland, Ryley and Fitch to repair to Hampton
Court and review the said new buildings there and to particularly
examine whether there are such or so many cracks in the piers
of the said building or such other defects as are mentioned in
the extracts of the several reports ; and after examination to
report the state and condition thereof and whether better to
have the same covered in and finished or that the entire building
or any part thereof be taken down and rebuilt.)

The Customs Commissioners to attend on Friday afternoon.
Mr. Stephens [is] called in and [is] asked about the money
received [by the Treasurer of the Navy out of the Exchequer]
upon the money appropriated to the seamen. He said 47,000l.

certificate of such payments.
The Surveyor [General of Works] to attend on Thursday
morning next about Mr. Gibbons' petition.
The Agents [for Taxes] to attend on Friday morning about

The Attorney General in behalf of Lord Kingston, Chief Justice
in Eyre, Trent North, and Mr. Ward for Mr. Mason et al. are
heard upon the petition of the latter for permission to fell and
carry away wood sold them by Mr. Corbyn in Sherwood Forest
or else to have money back again. Mr. Ward says Mr. Corbyn,
late Surveyor [of Woods, Trent North], had a warrant to sell
the wood, and petitioners bought same and have paid 2,025l.
and are to pay 275l. more and that they have not had half the
wood ; that in the articles (which are read) there was no time
limited for carrying away what they bought. The Attorney
[General] observes 'tis a strange agreement to fell all the trees
generally in such woods, viz. [in] Birkland and Billaigh, that
this will deface the forest and perhaps amount to a de-afforestation ;
that no time being limited they may make the soil their
own for 20 years. Mr. Ward insists that the law is clear ; where
a man sells wood growing on his ground the property passes
and if no time be limited to take it away the law allows a convenient
time, which might be hastened by a request ; that to give warrant
for felling wood is their [the Treasury] Lordships' province and
not that of the Justice in Eyre ; that the warrant was in May, 1687,
and nothing could be done that year, and for about a year now
past they have been hindered by Lord Kingston ; and so he
desires the rest of the wood or that his clients may have so much
of their money again. My Lords resolve that Serjt. Ryley shall
make a survey and valuation of all that has been felled (as well
as may be) and all that remains and certify how much has been
carried off, how much felled and not carried off and how much
remains standing and particularly how much of what remains
felled or unfelled would (together with what has been carried
away) satisfy petitioners' money. He is also to enquire how
much that money is.

Lord North and Grey [is called in] with Sir Robert Sawyer
and Sir William Williams, his counsel : also Mr. Watson and
Mr. Ward, his [Watson's] counsel, and Mr. Ince for the tenants
of the late Archbishop of Canterbury at Deal ; concerning lands
said to be derelict by the sea there. Counsel for Lord North
and Grey insisted that the discovery was made by his lordship,
that he at his own charge prosecuted an inquisition and had the
late King's warrant for a lease which passed to the privy seal,
and that he renewed his petition to the present King as soon as
he was King, and claims nothing but by his Majesty's favour.
Mr. Ward says a preceding inquisition was taken 14 Car. II ;
that Mr. Watson petitioned to his Majesty when Prince and
was afterwards referred to Attorney General Pollexfen, who
reported it fit that a lease should pass to Mr. Watson, and that
he relies on his Majesty's favour. Mr. Ince says the Archbishop's
tenants fear to be disturbed by an illegal proceeding ; that the
inquisition 14 Car. II relates not to the lands in question, but
only lands within [between the] two castles [at Deal] ; that the
second inquisition was executed by persons (some of them Papists)
when the Archbishop was in the Tower ; that by the statute
there should have been a jury, but here was none ; that it is a
matter of right to have a new one fairly executed. The counsel
[Ince] says he must apply to Chancery as to my Lord North and
Mr. Watson.
My Lords will lay the matter before the King.
