Excerpt from The Cely Papers: Selections From the Correspondence and Memoranda of the Cely Family Merchants of the Staple, A. D. 1475-1488 The whole family and their connexions were continually passing backwards and forwards between England, Calais and Flanders, except. Old Richard, who at the date of the Letters confined his journeys to England. It was the business of one junior member to superintend the business in Calais, and to travel thence, with more or less peril in time of war, to the various marts in Flanders. In England there was need of frequent journeys to buy wool and fells, generally down to Gloucestershire. The mention of the family is hardly complete without adding their trusty servant, Joyce Parmenter, whose name suffers peculiar indignities from the cacography of his betters, and becomes Goos sometimes. Parmenter was, no doubt, an Essex man; it is an Eastern Counties name. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
