C") The State Papers of the period contain an account of many of his mis- demeanours. Dugdale writes of him that he " betook himself wholly to a concu- bine [Elizabeth Tomlinson, of Dudley], on whom he begot divers [eleven] children, and so wasted his estate in support of her and them that he left not much of that fair inheritance which descended to him, and it so clogged with debts that, for the disengaging thereof, he married Frances, his granddaughter and heiress, to Humble Ward, the only son of William Ward, a wealthy goldsmith in London, jeweller to the late Queen." As early, however, as 1 593, the estates were in the hands of sequestrators. He appears to have been a person of infamous conduct. He, however, on 28 Feb. 1639, expresses his willingness to attend the King, though not " in such sort as is required," inasmuch as he had "passed over" his estate to Mr. Ward for payment of debts. (') In Dugdale's Summonses, p. 530, it is stated that a writ was directed Edwardo Sutton de Dudley chr. in 1586, but an examination of the Pari. Pawn shows that this is an interpolation, for no such name appears among the writs which issued 15 Sep. (1586) 28 Eliz. V.G.
