Scope and content
William Maurice has commenced a suit against Gruffydd Hughes in the Exchequer for the glebe lands of Llanfihangel y Traethau, which Gruffydd Hughes's predecessors had rightly and duly recovered against him, as Gruffydd Hughes was informed. But finds, having lately enquired of the proceedings in that business, that the jury had no sufficient evidence to find for Gruffydd Hughes's predecessors all the lands which they did, though they had good evidence to find them all except some part of Erw y Sain. If Gruffydd Hughes had understood this sooner, would not have stood in his present proceedings in law, but would have been ready to join William Maurice in a commission or any other method upon which they agreed to find the truth of what is due to each of them. Is now willing and ready to do so, if William Maurice likes that course and will stay his suit so that there are no more proceedings therein, in the hope that they may agree otherwise. Upon William Maurice's return from London, will attend him wherever he pleases on the last notice. Knows William Maurice does not desire the travail of Gruffydd Hughes's body or the expenses of his money in suits of law, but only [to obtain] his own, which God willing, he shall have at Gruffydd Hughes's hands without suits upon true information. Is persuaded that they will easily agree when they meet. Marginal comments in Sir William Maurice's hand.
