HISTORY OF THE FAMILY OF BORLASE.

(Continued from p. 141.) We must now return to the main line, which we left with Walter and Edward, the sons of John Borlas, of Borlas-

Taillefer ; but only to leave it again to follow the fortunes of the younger of these brothers, Edward, and that of his descendants. Leaving his native county, probably at an early age, Echvard Borlas came to London, where, after having served his apprentice- ship to Thomas Maynard, who was probably an uncle by marriage on his mother's side, he was admitted to the freedom of the Mel-eel's' Company in 151.4. 1 Six years later he was one of those merchants who supplied Henry VIII. with wine for the Field of the Cloth of Gold, and, in this manner, was assisting the English nobility in running into thnt heavy debt which, while it had the effect of ruining many of them, ended in replacing them by a merchant aristocracy, such as the family of which, as we shall
