Note 36.1 — THE PASTON LETTERS Henry VI

[From Fenn, iii. 432.] The evidence of date in this letter is the same as in No. 288. Notwithstanding Pryce’s efforts, not one of the persons named in this letter was actually elected, the knights returned for Norfolk in 1455 being the Duke of Norfolk’s nominees, Sir Roger Chamberlain and John Howard.—See Nos. 294 and 295 following.

36.2 Shieve in Fenn is almost certainly a misreading.
