BOTO-H.R.-NER.[322.1]

[Footnote 320.2: [From Fenn, i. 76.]]

[Footnote 321.1: June 9 in 1454.]

[Footnote 321.2: Richard Nevill, Earl of Salisbury, was

appointed Chancellor on the 2nd April 1454.]

[Footnote 321.3: June 20 in 1454.]

[Footnote 321.4: John Prisot, Chief Justice of the Common

Pleas.]

[Footnote 321.5: Richard Bingham, a Justice of the King’s

Bench.]

[Footnote 321.6: John Portington, a Justice of the Common

Pleas.]

[Footnote 321.7: Henry Holland, Duke of Exeter. On the 11th May

this year he had been ordered to appear before the Council on

the following Thursday (16th May). --_See_ Nicolas’s _Privy

Council Proceedings_, vi. 180.]

[Footnote 321.8: His name was Thomas Lyseux.--See _Patent Roll_,

32 Hen. VI., m. 14.]

[Footnote 321.9: Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy.]

[Footnote 321.10: Doubtless the grant of the wardship of Thomas

Fastolf of Cowhawe. --_See_ p. 322, Note 2.]

[Footnote 322.1: William Worcester, or Botoner, as he called

himself indifferently, secretary to Sir John Fastolf. He

frequently introduces the letters ‘H. R.’ into or above his

signature, and sometimes at the top of his letter. Fenn reads

the name ‘Botener,’ which is certainly wrong according to the

facsimile given of the signature in this place.]
