^{page 14 note b} What issue he left I cannot positively answer, but it seemes probable enough y^t John Holies was his sonne, whome I finde to be admitted into the Society of Lincolnes Inne a^O 23 Hen. 8 ; for thus speakes one of the registers of y^t house—

^{page 14 note c} ‘Joh ē s Holies admissus est in societatem de Lincolne Inne 9 Julii a^o 23 H. 8,¹¹ et pardonentur ei quinque vacationes, ita quod custodiat quatuor vacationes infra tres annos proximo sequentes.
