And from thence, ever since, all Goods have been brought to the City by Horse, Cart, or Waggon, and carried thither in like manner to the great benefit of the Earl and his Tenants, tho' to the Trouble and Hindrance of the City, and the Merchants thereof. He also intruded upon the Liberties of the Citizens, taking from them by Force the Fishing in the River Exe, and otherways oppressing them to the utmost of his Power. **The Motive for this Conduct of the Earl's was the great Displeasure he conceived against the Mayor and Citizens on the following occasion: His Cater coming hither to buy Fish, when there were only three Pots in the Market, and the Bishop's Caterer coming also for the like Purpose, a Strife arose between them which should have the Whole of the tree Poets of Fish----' (Quote from pages 8-9). ***A nice original copy of the true first edition in nineteenth century colour marbled and half-leather boards. ***A scarce antiquarian title on the ancient history and description of Exeter, of interest to academics and historians researching the history of Exeter, and collectors or rare antiquarian first editions.
