Hide Profile

Sir John was dismissed from his offices during the Commonwealth. He, himself, is the final subject of the manuscript: "Sir John was a councellor to king James and king Charles I and lord of exchequer and a lord of session.... By the power and malice of his enemies, he has at last been thrust out of the said places in his old age, and likewise fined in 500 L Sterling." He was a scholar as well as a statesman.
