In common with many other Welsh towns, Builth, by virtue of an ancient charter, was granted certain liberties and privileges enjoyed by the citizens of Hereford, who, in return, appear to have possessed the questioned right of tradmg quit of toll in the Builth market. Having previously had under consideration royal mandates from Edward VI and Queen Mary respecting mustering troops in the city, one from Elizabeth for a similar purpose will deserve attention. These letters of commission were writ...ten in the month of March, immediately after the Queen's accession to the throne. " A true copye of the queen's majesty's letters of commission, directed to the mayor and aldermen of the city of Hereford, for her grace's musters to be taken within the said city, which letters be signed by the queen's majesty's own hand, as hereafter appeareth. " By the queen, Elizabeth R. Trusty and well beloved, we greet you well. " Letting you know that the wars as well with France as with Scotland, wherein our dearest sister, the late queen, hath left this realm, are yet remaining unreconciled and not compounded, we have thought it necessary, both for our surety, and for the defence of our loving subjects, to foresee, and as much as may be, to meet with whatsoever shall be attempted against us, our realms and subjects, by any foreign enemy during the said wars.
