 Edward NORTH (1° B. North of Kirtling)
When the King was informed of this discrepancy, he summoned North from his bed in the Charterhouse early one morning to defend his conduct; this North was able to do although at the price of an arrangement settling the matter by an exchange of lands favourable to the King.
Although North had used his position to line his pocket and continued to do so throughout his connexion with the court, his financial reputation was unimpaired and he was frequently commissioned to audit accounts under Henry VIII, Edward VI and Mary.
There may, however, have been a measure of disagreement between North and Northumberland as the Charterhouse, which North had held since 1545 and which was apparently still his at the beginning of 1553, escheated to the crown on the duke's attainder later that year.

Baron Philip von Reck, the nephew of George I's ambassador to Vienna, served as the commissioner in charge of a group of Protestant refugees expelled from Salzburg in 1731 by the Catholic archbishop.
In 1731, when Paul Dudley, a Boston merchant and avid reader of international Protestant literature, penned a rabid attack on Roman Catholic practices, he resorted constantly to the language and form of antislavery discourse, even though his argument had almost nothing to do with chattel slavery.
Dudley was too thoroughly grounded in this ongoing conversation not to be steeped in its vocabulary and style of thinking.

 August 4th
At the parliament of Oxford in 1258, the barons of the popular party overpowered the court, and compelled the king to consent to statutes which took the government out of his hands and placed it in those of twenty-four persons, twelve of whom were to be chosen by each of the two parties.
The pope's brief arrived in 1261, when the king, whose friends had gained over some of the less patriotic of the barons, ventured to throw off the mask, and proclaimed all to be null and void which had been done since the parliament of Oxford.
The joy of the royalists was shewn in the indignities which they heaped upon the body of the great statesman, but his work remained, and none of the substantial advantages of the baronial war of the middle of the thirteenth century have ever been lost.
