The sixth of the interrogatories in the preced- Ground Malt, jj^g ^^^^ discovers in practice the same ingenious evasion of soke which had been prohibited at Liverpool in 1524, at York in 161 7, and other places. The Chester maltsters about 1635 had combined to purchase outside the city malt ready ground ; a process which they imagined might free them from the Dee soke. A small ring of maltsters was formed ; a subscrip- tion was raised to procure legal advice from London ; John Edwards, a miller of Boughton, joined ; and one, Tyrer, a malt-dealer, began openly to sell the readyground malt. On May 13, 1636, an order was secured Harl. MSS., against four of the ring —Thomas Dennison, Richard 2081. III. Dickenson, Edward Russell, and Andrew Minshall ; but despite this, not only did they carry on their illicit practices as before, but they were joined by four Ibid., 2083. 450. others—Thomas Weaver, Henry Hazel well, Elizabeth * The only apparent clue to the date of this afifair is an allusion in the case to the erection of Davenport's mill in 1620 as being " about fifteen years ago."

The case chestek. thereupon against Dennison, and his defence, are the most 29. Buying" interesting of the series. The bill formulated against Ground Malt, him stated that since the order of May 13, viz. ^ ^'^' between the 20th and 25th of May, he had ground two brewings of malt, containing forty-eight measures each, at Edwards' mill at Boughton. Against this practice it was pleaded that the buying of ground malt was fraudulent and a breach of the order of the Court of May 13. Richard Gough would testify that on May 24 he saw six of Dennison's sacks of malt at Edwards' mill, and witnessed them carried the same night to Dennison's house. William Culcheth would prove that he had several times tried to serve the order of the Court of May 13 upon Dennison at his house, but could never see him, and finally read a copy in the presence of Dennison's brother and ser- vants. As regarded Tyrer, it would be proved that he was ''a malt-maker, but hath no mylne to grind the same : upon which made the fraud more apparent and inexcusable in that he should grind his .malt at another mill and afterwards contract for the sale of it." As regarded Dickenson, it would be shown that after the order of May 13 he did contract and contribute moneys with other of the defendants to Edwards, miller of Boughton, for him to solicit a lawyer to help them, that they might be at liberty to grind where they pleased. On June 14, 1637, the defendants appeared for examination in the Chester Exchequer before Robert Gregg, examiner of the same court ; whose signed report of the depositions of the defendants concludes with the significant remark, ''The defendants are HarL MSS., resolved to stand out against the complainant, and ^^ ^* "^ to free themselves if they can from being tyed and
