Note 88.6 — THE PASTON LETTERS Henry VI. Restored

[From Fenn, iv. 450.] From what is said in this letter about the Earl of Oxford, it is impossible that it could have been written at any other time than during the brief restoration of Henry VI., which only lasted from October 1470 till April following.

89.1 A certain, i.e. a number.

89.2 I retain this word in the abbreviated form in which it is printed in Fenn’s literal transcript; the copy in modern spelling reads sufficient.

91.1 Chevron, a covering for a horse’s head, made of iron and leather.
