http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/236110942

Letters patent by the Right Honorable Mildmay, earl of Westmorland, William Manly of Aylesford (Kent), gentleman, and Richard Hatch of Yalding (Kent), yeoman, reciting that whereas by an indenture dated 2 February, 17 James I, made between Robert Kenward and Julian Kenward, then of the parish of Yalding, widow, Robert in consideration of £100 paid to him by Julian granted her an annuity of £5 arising out of 3 pieces of land containing 20 acres in Yalding and called "Great Dorny Mead," "Little Dorny Mead," and "Bush Mead," bounded by the lands of Richard Hatch to the north, the river to the south and west, and the lands of Edward, lord Aburgaveny, called the Court Lodge to the east; in which indenture there was a proviso containing to the effect that if the said Robert Kenward, his heirs, executors, or assigns, should pay to the said Julian or her heirs on 3 February 1626 the sum of £100 with arrears, then the annuity of £5 should cease and that present grant thereof should be void; and whereas the said Julian by a codicill dated 28 February 1619 annexed unto here last will and testament did devise that after her death the said annuity should be to the use and benefit of the poor of Yalding, along with other moneys; to the better effecting whereof she did bequeath unto the said earl by the name of Mildmay Fane, esquire, son and heir apparent to Sir Francis Fane, knight, William Manly, and Richard Hatch, and to Sir George Fane, knight, Thomas Whetenhall, esquire, Edward Maplsden, gentleman, Thomas Ayerst, gentleman, and Thomas Sommer, all since deceased, the annuity of £5 to be by them distributed amongst the poor; and did further will that the £100 that should redeem the annuity should speedily be spent on the purchase of lands, the profits arising therefrom to be to the use and benefit of the poor; and whereas Robert Kenward, son and heir apparent of the aforesaid Robert Kenward, did by indenture dated 2 July, 11 Charles I [1635] demise the said parcells of land to one Marmaduke Wyvell, gentleman, for the term of 500 years; and the said Marmaduke by indenture dated 17 June, 16 Charles I [1640] granted the residue of the said term to Sir Roger Twysden, knight and baronet, of East Peckham (Kent) in consideration of a certain sum; but Robert Kenward by indenture dated 18 June of the same year granted to Thomas Twysden, esquire, and William Howell, alias, Lucke, gentleman, in trust for Sir Roger Twysden, the reversion of the sum; meanwhile the said £100 was not paid. Therefore, the aforenamed earl of Westmorland, Manly, and Hatch now in consideration of the sum of £100 with arrears paid by Sir Roger Twysden for the redemption of the said annuity, to be bestowed by them for such intent and purpose as by the said codicill is diverted, have quitclaimed unto Sir Roger Twysden, Thomas Twysden, and Edward Howell, alias Lucke, right title unto the premises described above. On dorse: a note to the effect that the £100 with arrears is intentioned by William Manly and Richard Hatch, with the consent of the churchwarden, overseers of the poor, and other inhabitants of Yalding, for the purchase of an house and certain lands of Thomas Furner of Westmallinge, lands lying in the parish of Yalding.
