[A Warrant of Loud Chancellor  Sir N. Bacon  in  1559-60.

It appears from the documents reprinted below and on 'py. 570 and 676, that the Queen's Printers were paid for some
if not all their Proclamations by a warrant of the Lord Chancellor on the Clerk of the Hanaper, after their Account and
the Warrant thereon had been examined by the Clerk of the Crown.

1.   20 November 1558—[] June] 1559.   The Queen's Printers' Account.

Unfortunately the lower half of this Account containing the "Warrant fee, has been torn off. It is evidently the very
first one rendered by them. It is noticeable that it is rendered in their joint names, though the first Proclamation was
issued in R, Jugge's name only, see p. 129.

These Accounts are also of importance as'proving that the Grenville Collection of Elizabeth's Proclamations—probably
the most comprehensive in existence—is not complete : while at the same time it contains several which are unaccount¬
ably omitted in them. These we have inserted in square brackets [ ], as they are styled on the originals themselves or in
the List (printed in 1618) prefixed to the Grenville Collection, by Humphrey Dyson who formed it.
