It fully appears from the wills of William Calley, which follow, 

 that he became a very wealthy citizen of London, who would, 

 presumably, but for his comparatively early decease, have been 

 called on to serve the higher civic offices. Mr. Mullings has col- 

 lected several interesting particulars with regard to him : — 



William Calley, the son of Edith, was a merchant tailor of the City of 

 London, trading principally with Spain, as appears by his books and corres- 

 pondence, now (1867) in Burderop House, 1 and there is, with the muniments, 

 an ancient deed or grant of pardon in common form by King Henry VIII., 

 dated 23rd April, first year of his reign (1509) to "William Calley, esquire, 



1 The question suggests itself, if this may not possibly be a confusion 

 between William, son of John, and his great-grandson, another William 

 Calley, who undoubtedly did business with Spain.
