page 259 note * The charter is printed in Mr. Sinclair's History of Wigan, 2 vols. 4to. Wigan, 1882, at p. 101 of the first volume. I was not aware of its existence when this Paper was read, but it throws so much light on the history of the seal that, in revising for the press, it was impossible to avoid referring to it. I am indebted to Mr. Sinclair's book for other information on the subject.

He occurs more than once in the Parliament Rolls, prior to his elevation to the bench, as a receiver of petitions.
