TitleFollowing from their entering court on recognizance to answer complaint of the church warden and overseers of the poor of Fordham parish for producing with spinster Mary Bacon a child likely to be born a bastard, which was respited till this session, since Bacon had only then delivered the child a week previously, Thomas Morley of Fordham and his sureties, Yeoman Thomas South of Burwell and Miller William Morley of Fordham again appeared. Thomas Morley moved through his Counsel, Robert Graham, that he and his sureties be discharged from recognition since it was now over 3 months since Bacon had had the child and no order of bastardy had been made. SInce no one gave any cause to the contrary, the court discharged the three.
