[Footnote 69.2: [From Paston MSS., B.M.] This letter, though not
addressed, seems to have been written by Margaret Paston to her
husband. The election referred to must have been that for the
Parliament of 1463. From one expression used it is clear that it
was written some time before Easter, and the dispute with Jenney
and Debenham about Calcote proves the date to a certainty. Compare
Nos. 538 and 540.]
[Footnote 70.1: Thomas Fastolf of Cowhawe.]
[Footnote 71.1: The words ‘tesaur’ liberat’’ are interlined and
apparently intended to be inserted here. I must leave the grammar
of the sentence as it stands in the original. The word at the end,
which I believe stands for ‘Yelverton,’ is very ambiguous from the
careless writing.]
[Footnote 71.2: These words are inserted between the lines, but
whether they were intended for a heading is a little uncertain.]
