See vol. v, 1'. 113, note " c," as to the cause uf such summons being, nut improbably, owing to liis mother's heirship uf this Barony of Teyes, which thenceforth devolved with that of Lisle. ('') There is proof in the rolls of Pari, uf his sitting. ( c ) John de I'atesbnll was found to be his heir, according to Courthope," but Bugdale states that Margaret, then aged 20, da. of Koger l.e TVys, his br., was his next heir. His wife is sometimes said to have DMO the widow of Simon Pateshull, and if so, this confusion might naturally have arisen.

This magnificently emblazoned Boll, considered to be the finest specimen in England, is in the possession «f the present Lurd Teynbam." As to this lull it appears to have been at Linsted Lodge till 1821, tho' parted with soon after by the executors of the 13th Lord. It was re-purchased by the second wife (possibly then the widow) of the Mth Lord, ami is now L189ii] in the possession of the present Peer. ( f ) The grantee held the valuable office of Custos lircviiim, for the reversion of which, for two lives, -tS/iOO was offered and refused in 1604. "From the Secret history of Court Intrigues it seems that the peerage was given him as a compensation for some place [Q,/. if not tho one abovenamed .'] which Villiers, the favourite, wrested from him " [Collins]. It was, as stated by George, Lord Carew, in a letter to Sir Thomas Roe, conferred " in pat/ant". Again, " Sir John Holies was cr.
