Fine

edit

Is the 2,000 pound fine correct? I had read somewhere else that it was 100, which, considering the sums of the time, makes more sense. Then again, a 2,000 pound fine would explain why he pursued his case for 9 years. Vsanborn (talk) 23:25, 9 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

That edit was made when the article was created by Bhoeble who has not been around for several years. I cannot find any reference to this fine amount but will keep looking. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 14:07, 10 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
According to Ben Locker, at <http://home.freeuk.net/s-parrott/pottedhistory.html>, the amount was 100 pounds. Locker is an amateur historian, who has written much about London. The damages were assessed by the Court of King's Bench on November 23, 1682, so this should be verifiable.98.248.117.239 (talk) 21:31, 10 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
