Aecords of the Rising in the West. 
Some Notes and Corrections of the “Records of the Rising im 
the West, A.D. 1655,” by W. W. Ravenuitt, Esq. :— 
In the twelfth line of p. 120, vol. xiii., for ‘‘ postscript” read “preface.” 
In the eighteenth line of p. 123, vol. xiii., after £1500, add a Note: ‘‘In the 
Catalogue of Nobles, &c., who have compounded for their estates, published 
London, 1655, and reprinted 1733, mention is made of Sir John Penruddock, 
of Compton Chamberlayne, having compounded for £490, and John Penruddock, 
of the same place, Esq., for £66 10s.” 
In the first line of p. 124, the parenthesis should contain ‘‘ September 3rd,” 
only.. The anniversary of the battle of Worcester, 1651, and afterwards of 
His Highness’s death. 
In Note 1, ‘‘No mention is made of written articles.” Compare the petition 
given vol. xiv., p., 89, which had not then come into my hands. However, 
Crook had no power to grant articles. 
In the twenty-ninth line of p. 132, ‘‘ Lady Nicholas.” On re-perusal of MS. 
I think this should be ‘‘Judg Nicholas.” Fellow-Wiltshiremen ! 
In the Note, p. 149, Sir John Awdry suggests ‘“‘ Barum,” the old name for 
Barnstaple—and this is the probable reading. 
In the last line of p. 161, place a Note after Oxford: ‘‘ Hart Hall was, I am 
assured, never part of New College, but of Magdalen Hall, now (1874) Hertford 
College, Oxford. Ifso, Anthony Wood (the authority for the text) is incorrect 
on this point.” 
In the first line, p. 168, after ‘‘ consultation,” add a Note. ‘This, to say 
the least of it, was a most unusual proceeding.” 
At the end of Note which concludes on p. 169, after &c., add ‘‘ The latter 
part of the Indictment is in a different handwriting (Prideaux’s ?), and is on a 
separate sheet. See original MS., at Bodleian Library, Oxford.” 
At the end of Note, p. 172, add ‘‘the name Thomas Mompesson appears in 
the Commission of Assize, A.D. 1659. See Western Circuit Records.” 
In the twenty-third line of p. 254, after ‘‘ used,” insert ‘“‘ for some years,” 
and add a Note: ‘Some years before there had been a court in the Castle. See 
Western Circuit Order Book.” 
In the fifteenth line of p. 268, after ‘‘ son,” add a Note: ‘The body of this 
was written by Mr. Seymour Bowman, a cousin of Colonel Penruddock’s, who 
probably was present at the trial. The endorsement is George Penruddock’s.”
