 In order to raise money for the defence of the country, the 

 Queen issued a requisition to the Lieutenants of each county 

 that she required an extraordinary aid by way of loan ; and the 

 names of the nobility, gentry, and others who contributed are 

 preserved in a rare tract in the British Museum, which was 

 printed in 1798 to give an account of their spirited and 

 patriotic conduct on that occasion, and thus to stimulate the 

 people to aid to their utmost in repelling the threatened French 

 invasion. 



The list is taken from a MS. written in 1588 and the portion 

 relating to Cornwall is as follows : —
