Title
Richard Lloyd at Drury Lane [London] to Thomas Gell at the Inner Temple
Date
22 Feb [1647]
Description
Knew some Londoners of great estates that continued at Oxford and divers other monied men but most took no employment in the army - some were appointed to collect money, others to oversee the works and pay the labourers - wishes to know if they forfeit their debts even though they did not bear arms - believes he could find good debts owing to Sir Nicholas Crispe and his captains, the Earl of Antrim and Cadwallader Jones who was chief customer of all the western ports - asks Gell to get him a view of the book of ordinance - had a business put into his hands a little before he went to Oxford viz £2000 in gold found at Exeter House by Lady Hatton's waiting woman - spoke to the gentleman who is married in town and contracted to give her £200 or 300 - does not know if he could receive the money from Lady Hatton by getting it from the King - the money was not Lady Hatton's - wishes to call on Gell.
