Summary Ms. warrant, dated April 15, 1559 at Westminster, and signed by William Paulet, first Marquis of Winchester and Lord Treasurer to Elizabeth I, ordering payment of ten pounds each to clerks, John Hambie and William Hamerton, for compiling record books and schedules of payments and fees. Hambie and Hamerton have produced "twoo grete bookes in parchement", containing records of yearly payments of pensions, fees, annuities, and allowances for maintenance, clerical and financial matters left unfinished by the death of Cardinal Pole, the Archbishop of Canterbury during the previous reign of Mary Tudor. In addition, the clerks have compiled important financial records concerning manors and parsonages, for which they have not yet received payment. Paulet's warrant, authorizing payments to the clerks of ten pounds each, is also signed by Sir Walter Mildmay, Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Sir Richard Sackville, Under Treasurer of the Exchequer.
