After dwelling in London for nearly two years, dxiring which he probably became the father of " one that I must in honor, or at least good nature, provide for, " he returned to Gloucestershire to find that his father had been voted a delinquent and his estate sequestrated. William Guise had been found guilty of toasting the royalist cause, though under alleged compulsion. He had admitted being detained by an accident in the King's quarters near Mon- mouth, and having spent a night in Oxford to ...avoid payment of £200 to the royal exchequer. He had thus rendered himself liable to the penalty of sequestration under the ordinance of 27 March, 1643, and was condemned on technical grounds. Before the Com- mittee for compounding at Goldsmith's Hall, Christopher Guise, acting as his father's representative, was able to prove that the witnesses to the episode of the royal toast were suspect as they had plundered Elmore without authority and had a personal interest in Guise's delinquency ; that Monmouth was not a royal garrison at that date, while the visit to Oxford was solely to escape a contribu- tion demanded by a privy seal.
