[Footnote 141.1: [From Fenn, iv. 164.] There can be little doubt
this letter was written in the year 1465, when Margaret was
troubled by Mr. Philip Lipgate and the Duke of Suffolk’s bailiff
of Cossey. It may be observed also that Margaret here dates from
Hellesden, and speaks of having been recently at Caister. Compare
Nos. 579 and 581. Further, the name of John Jenney is found on the
Commission of the Peace for Norfolk, dated the 1st April 1465
(Patent, 5 Edward IV., p. 1, m. 32), but it is not on the
commission issued on the 20th February following (_ib._, m. 27);
so that John Paston seems to have acted on his wife’s suggestion
and been successful in getting him removed.]
[Footnote 142.1: A.D. 1463. This was at the time the King was in
the north, when Alnwick Castle surrendered to him.]
