Edmund Plowden, Master Treasurer of the Middle Temple
The Catholic Lawyer Volume 3 Number 1 Volume 3, January 1957, Number 1 Article 7 Edmund Plowden, Master Treasurer of the Middle Temple Richard O'Sullivan Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.law.stjohns.edu/tcl Part of the Catholic Studies Commons This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Journals at St. John's Law Scholarship Repository.

EDMUND PLOWDEN' MASTER TREASURER OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE (1561-1570) RICHARD O'SULLIVAN D ENUO SURREXIT DOMUS: the Latin inscription high on the outside wall of this stately building announces and records the fact that in the year 1949, under the hand of our Royal Treasurer, Elizabeth the Queen, the Hall of the Middle Temple rose again and became once more the centre of our professional life and aspiration. To those who early in the war had seen the destruction of these walls and the shattering of the screen and the disappearance of the Minstrels' Gallery; and to those who saw the timbers of the roof ablaze upon a certain -midnight in March 1944, the restoration of Domus must seem something of a miracle. All these things naturally link our thought with the work and the memory of Edmund Plowden who, in the reign of an earlier Queen Elizabeth, devoted his years as Treasurer and as Master of the House to the building of this noble Hall. -

English Book Owners in the Seventeenth Century: A Work in Progress Listing How much do we really know about patterns and impacts of book ownership in Britain in the seventeenth century? How well equipped are we to answer questions such as the following?: • What was a typical private library, in terms of size and content, in the seventeenth century? • How does the answer to that question vary according to occupation, social status, etc? • How does the answer vary over time? – how different are ownership patterns in the middle of the century from those of the beginning, and how different are they again at the end? Having sound answers to these questions will contribute significantly to our understanding of print culture and the history of the book more widely during this period. Our current state of knowledge is both imperfect, and fragmented. There is no directory or comprehensive reference source on seventeenth-century British book owners, although there are numerous studies of individual collectors. There are well-known names who are regularly cited in this context – Cotton, Dering, Pepys – and accepted wisdom as to collections which were particularly interesting or outstanding, but there is much in this area that deserves to be challenged. Private Libraries in Renaissance England and Books in Cambridge Inventories have developed a more comprehensive approach to a particular (academic) kind of owner, but they are largely focused on the sixteenth century. Sears Jayne, Library Catalogues of the English Renaissance, extends coverage to 1640, based on book lists found in a variety of manuscript sources. Evidence of book ownership in this period is manifested in a variety of ways, which need to be brought together if we are to develop that fuller picture. -

Sir Thomas Bromley Was Born Around 1530 in Shropshire, the Son of George Bromley and Jane Lacon
P R O F I L E Sir Thomas Bromley was born around 1530 in Shropshire, the son of George Bromley and Jane Lacon. His father’s cousin, also Sir Thomas Bromley, was Chief Justice of the King’s Bench during the reign of Mary I. The family had a close connection with the Inner Temple; his father was a Reader at the Inn in 1508 and 1509, and his brother (Sir George Bromley) was elected Treasurer in 1567. Sir Thomas himself was elected Treasurer of the Inn in 1573. Bromley was admitted to Clifford’s Inn in 1547, and became a member of the Inner Temple in the early 1550s. In 1555 he was appointed as one of the auditors of the Inn’s steward, and in 1557 he was an auditor for the Treasurer. When his cousin the Chief Justice died in 1555, he left the younger Sir Thomas an allowance of 40 shillings a year for ten years if he continued his S I R legal studies: Bromley did so, receiving a Bachelor of Civil Law degree from the University of Oxford in 1560. In the same year he married Elizabeth Fortescue, with whom he had eight T H O M A S children. B R O M L E Y Throughout the 1550s and 1560s Bromley was active politically, sitting as an MP for Bridgnorth, Wigan, and Guildford. He also progressed in his legal career; he was active in the Inner Temple’s affairs, first attending the Inn’s Parliament in 1563, and A D M I T 1 5 5 0 serving again as an auditor for the Treasurer in 1564, as an R E A D E R 1 5 6 6 ; attendant on the Reader in 1565, and becoming Reader himself T R E A S U R E R 1 5 7 3 - 7 5 ; in 1566, lecturing on the Statutes of Attaints. -

Boorman: Arbitration and Elite Honour in Elizabethan England: A Case Study Arbitration and Elite Honour in Elizabethan England: A Case Study of Bess of Hardwick Dr. Francis Calvert Boorman* ABSTRACT: During the 1580s, Queen Elizabeth I intervened in a marital dispute between two of her foremost subjects, George Talbot, Earl of Shrewsbury and his wife, com- monly referred to as Bess of Hardwick. The Queen appointed several of her Privy Councillors to negotiate a reconciliation. These events provide a case study of the use of arbitration and mediation in resolving familial disputes among the elite of Elizabethan England, and their particular application by the Queen and her closest advisers. This article also highlights the importance of contemporary conceptions of gender and honour to dispute resolution. -

Preface In this list cadet, associated, and stem families are arranged in a single entry when substantial property passed between one and the other providing continuity of parliamentary representation (even, as was the case in a few instances, when no blood or marriage relationship existed). Subsidiary/cadet families are usually grouped under the oldest, richest, or most influential stem family. Female MPs are counted with their birth families, or, if not born into a parliamentary family, with their husband’s family. -

1 Glossary of Names by Grace Ioppolo This Glossary Records All Names Of
Glossary of Names by Grace Ioppolo This Glossary records all names of persons with whom Alleyn notes in the Diary that he had a personal or professional relationship in their own right. Thus, for example, the names of baptized children of a friend or associate and the unnamed relatives or guests of other persons mentioned are not recorded here. As Alleyn is not always precise in writing people’s names or in noting their relationships to him, the names in his Diary have been checked against those listed in George Warner’s Catalogue of the Manuscripts and Muniments of Alleyn’s College of God’s Gift at DC (1881) and the Second Series of the same catalogue completed by Francis B. Bickley (1903), as well as William Young’s The History of DC, 2 volumes (1889). In addition, in the cases in which Alleyn gives both the surname and forename, the names have been checked against an online database of residents mentioned in Southwark Token Books (http://tokenbooks.folger.edu) prepared by Alan H. Nelson and William Ingram. Throughout, ‘DC’ is an abbreviation for Dulwich College; all references to DC MSS and Muniments specifically refer to the Alleyn Papers. A Abdy Humphrey Abdy, Alleyn’s tenant; he is noted in DC Muniments 523 and 590 and Second Series 100.2 Ade, Mr Adayes, Mr John Adye, a Southwark resident Alber, Mr a joiner Alexander, Mr Prince Charles’ gentleman usher, Sir William Alexander, Earl of Stirling, who addressed a poem to Alleyn in DC MSS 1, Article 137 Allaume, Mr Alldridge, Mr Allen, Captain Allen, Isaac Allen, Mr described by Alleyn as a goldsmith; possibly the goldsmith Francis Allen (c.1583–1658), later a Member of Parliament who participated in the prosecution of King Charles I who was executed in 1649.
