Overview

Excerpt from The Personal Government of Charles I, Vol. 1 of 2: A History of England From the Assassination of the Duke of Buckingham to the Declaration of the Judges on Ship-Money, 1628 1637 On Leighton's subsequent career Mr. Christie has also something to say; as he has acquired from Dr. Pitman, the Registrar of the College of Physicians, the information that Leighton appeared before the Censors' Board on four occa sions: September 24, 1619, July 7, 1626, January 5, 1627 when he was fined 3ol. - and February 18, 1634. The latter date goes far to strengthen a suspicion which Mr. Christie tells me he has reason to entertain, that Leighton was released on parole, and was not therefore detained in prison, as is usually supposed, till the Long Parliament met.
