'Petition of Francis Whitaker, yeoman of the guard, to Archbishop Laud. Four years since petitioner lodged in his house for seven months James Rotherford, a Scot, parson of Covenham Mary, co. Lincoln, with his wife, three children, and a maid. Rotherford departed in petitioner's debt 20 marks, whereof 4l. petitioner lent him out of purse. Having in like manner deceived many others, Rotherford still skulks in obscure corners about London, under the pretended name of Dr. Rotherford, and is defamed to be a cheating and cozening companion, and of so lewd and incontinent a life as is not fit to be specified. Prays a sequestration to be awarded for recovery of the debt out of Rotherford's rectory.'
