THOMAS PLAYTER.

[Footnote 328.1: [Add. MS. 34,889, f. 217.] The reference to

Lord Wiltshire proves the date of this letter to lie between

1449 and 1460, and it would seem to be 1454 when the 20th July

was a Saturday, Wednesday and Thursday being spoken of as past

dates and Monday as a future one.]

[Footnote 328.2: Richard, Earl of Salisbury.]

[Footnote 328.3: James Butler, Earl of Wiltshire and Ormonde.]

[Footnote 328.4: John, Lord Beauchamp.]

[Footnote 328.5: Sir John Fastolf.]

[Footnote 329.1: William Booth was Archbishop of York from 1452

to 1464. If the letter had been earlier Cardinal Kemp would have

been Archbishop of York, and would have been called ‘Cardinal of

York.’]
