                  SOME OTHER RELICS, NOTES AND REMINISCENCES

                                  SHIP MONEY

One of the  ancient forms of Taxation  about which we, through the  writings of
the historian, know the  most, was called "Ship Money," which was an imposition
aciently charged upon the  ports, towns, cities,  boroughs and counties of  the
realm, by writs  commonly called ship writs,  under the great seal  of England,
for the providing  and furnishing certain ships  for the King's service.   This
imposition was revived  by King Charles I,  in the years 1635 and  1636; but by
Statute 17 Carolus I, it was  declared to be contrary to the  laws and statutes
of the realm,  claim of right,  liberty of the  subject, etc.   Before this  was
done,  however, the  imposition  had led  to  most momentous  consequences, and
ultimately  to  the  desposition  of the  King  and  the  establishment  of the
Commonwealth.
      Thomas Carlyle  in his  own quaint  way refers  to this  "Ship Money"  as
follows:- "Two obscure individuals, Peter  Aldridge and Thomas Lane,  Assessors
of Shipmoney, over in  Buckinghamshire, had assembled  a Parish Meeting in  the
Church of  Great Kimble,  to assess and rate the  Shipmoney of the said Parish.
There, in the  cold weather, at  the foot of  the Chiltern Hills,  11th January
1635, the Parish did  attend.  John Hampden, Esquire, at  the head of them, and
by  a Return still  extant, refused to  pay the same  or any  portion thereof -
witness the above  Assessors, witness also two Parish  Constables whom we remit
from  such inexpected  celebrity.   John  Hampden's  share for  this Parish  is
thirty  one shillings and sixpence, for another  Parish it is twenty shillings,
on which latter sum, not on the former, John Hampden was tried."
      A  little further  on  in his  Cromwell's  Letters and  Speeches, Carlyle
returns to  the  subject  as  follows:-  On the  6th  of  November  1637,  this
important Process of  Mr Hampden's  began.  Learned  Mr St  John, a dark  tough
man, of the toughness of  leather, spake with irrefragable  law-eloquence, law-
logic, for three  days running, on  Mr Hampden's side;  and learned Mr  Holborn
for  three other  days:- preserved  yet by  Rushworth in  acres of  typography,
unreadble now to all mortals.   For other learned gentlemen, tough as  leather,
spoke  on  the opposite  side;  and  learned  judges  animadverted, at  endless
length,  amid the expectancy of men.   With brief pauses,  the Trial lasted for
three weeks and three days.   Mr Hampden became the most famous man in England,
by accident  partly.  The sentence was not  delivered till April 1638; and then
it  went  against  Mr  Hampden:  judgment in  Exchequer  ran  to  this  effect,
"Consideratum est per  eosdem Barones quod pr`dictus Johannes Hampden de issden
viginiti  solidis oneretur", -  He must  pay the  twenty shillings, -  "et inde
satisfaciat."    No hope  in  the Law  Courts,  then;   Petition  of  Right and
Tallagio non concedendo have become an old song.
      In  the County  of Wilts  the  Tax was  liked no  better  than ot  was in
Buckinghamshire, but the  people appear to have  done what they have  done ever
since  -  Namely, exercised the Englishman's privilege  of paying and grumbling
so that nothing more came of it.
      In  one of the schedules  sent by Charles I,  to the Sheriffs of counties
for raising  this Ship Money the  following apportionment appears to  have been
made  between  several of  the  leading  cities and  boroughs  of Wiltshire  as
follows:-

            The city of New Sarum (besides the Close)       £192
            The borough town of Marlborough                   60
            The borough of Devizes                            50
            The borough of Chippenham                         30
            The borough of Wilton                              5

      The  collection of Ship  Money, however,  was not confined  to cities and
boroughs: it was carried  on in every parish and hamlet in the  country, no one
who had  property that could be taxed being  allowed to escape.  And this being
so, these Ship Money schedules have always been accepted as a favourite  medium
for estimating the comparative importance  of towns and places two hundred  and
fifty  years ago, with each  other, and then for seeing  how huch the place has
progressed or gone  back.  For instance,  Waylen in his History  of Marlborough
remarks:- "The comparative  wealth and importance  of places,  as exhibited  by
these  schedules, contrast  remarkably with  their condition  in modern  times.
Liverpool for instance was rated at an amount  which was hardly the eighth part
of the assessment  on the city of Salisbury, and less than half of that imposed
on the borough of Marlborough.   The city of Bath appears to have been but very
little larger than Marlborough, and less than the eleventh  part of the size of
Bristol.  bristol was the  second city in the  kingdom, and alone was  assessed
for a ship  of the  value of £800.   Newcastle-upon-Tyne appears  to have  come
next, being valued at £700.  No other provincial towns approached  these two in
importance."
      These schedules, however, would  seem to be  of more than usual  interest
and importance  when they embrace a complete district  of a county, or division
of a county, for  then they serve to give not only  a perfect assessment of the
property, but  also a  census of  the inhabitants,  with their relative  social
positions.  Following this we  purpose by giving a copy of what is probably one
of the most perfect  of these Ship Money Schedules extant,  for the Kingsbridge
Hundred,  which  includes the  parishes  of  Swindon,  Wootton  Bassett, and  a
considerable district  around.  The schedule from which  we copy is an original
document, in excellent  preservation, and which  has, we  believe, remained  in
the  possession  of  the  descentants  of  those  to  whom  it  was  originally
addressed, and to whom  we are indebted  for the courtesy  of being allowed  to
take a copy.
