nine years, if Fitzjames and his wife, and their son, John Fitzjames, should so long live. The premium paid down was ^360, and a yearly rent of £\\ 12s. 8d. , and the best beast as a heriot. The Solicitor-General died in the life- time of his father, and by a deed, dated i8th April, 1569, reciting this fact, the Fitzjameses, in consideration of a pay- ment of ^700, reassign the estate for years to the elder Rosewell, still described as of Loxton, gentleman. It is clear from the difference in th...e two sums, £^(^0 and ;^700, after an interval of only seven years, that Fitzjames had been an improving lessee ; and it is mentioned in the lease of 1562, that * Fitzjames was minded to build a Mill at the Pond-Head, ' which accounts for the increased value of the premises. In the meantime the Solicitor-General, who had evidently prospered in his profession, had purchased, on his own account, Forde Abbey, in Devonshire, from the Sir Amias Paulet who had charge of the unfortunate Queen of Scots.
