This Maior made a severe Law against such as were guilty of Usury, which ran in those Times into great Oppression and Extortion. In the 14th of Richard I. about the Year 1390, the Citizens prayed, that against the horrible Vice of Usury, then termed Schefes, and practised as well by the Clergy as Laity, the Order made by John Nott, late Maior, might be executed through the Realm. The Answer was, that the King willed those Ordinances to be viewed; and if the same be found to be necessary, that they be then confirmed.]
