Bodleian Library, MS Eng. Misc. C.4, fol. 3

Receipt to Philip Fludde , for payment made for stockings for Prince Charles . The receipt appears on the recto of a single, unfolded paper leaf; the bottom right-hand corner of the MS has been torn off, probably to indicate the account had been settled. The MS is bound with seven other papers dating from 1617-20, all of which relate to payments made on behalf of the prince for plays, masques and entertainments.
