Apologies but the document is larger than I can fit on my scanner so have only scanned the left hand side - I'd need to photocopy / reduce it to A4 or do two scans.
Thiomas Taylor was bap. 1582 married Mary Pearce in 1602. The case relates to a dispute over a wooden railway and dates to 1605.
I have:
"Mary Taylor als (alias) Syner the wyfe of Thomas Taylor als Syner of Bentall in the Countie of Salop yeoman aged xxv (25) yeares or thereabouts sworne and ex??? sayeth as foRsoth vizt
To the ffrst ? she sayeth that she knoweth the compl(ainan)t and Richard Wilcocks and Francis Langley def(endants) and hath also seene John Malpas and Charles Morgan in this ? named
To the ixth (9th) ? she sayeth that on Wednesday the said xxiith (22nd) day of May in the third yeare of his Ma(jes)ties rigne she this dep? to Colepitt Hill abouts xith or xiith (11 0r 12) of the clocke in the ? the same day did then and there see the said John Malpas Charles Morgan ? savinge their bills in their ? and did see the s? compl(aine)nt Mr. Clifford, William Wilcocke of Broseley, the wyfe of Richard Yeats of Broseley afores? , Bennett Taylor, Ann the wyfe of John Adams and Rees(?) the constable of Broseley and divers others ?andings about the sd Malpas and Morgan leepinge ? of ? their bills will? them that the ? lay noe hand on them sayinge that they would ? them before any Justice of peace and sayedf that the ? to you? and before ? then they would ? their warrant they had for that if they had done. etc"
The sections then relate to the 27th, 19th, 20th, 22nd J?
? (or whatever they are). I presume they relate to the original accusations in the case.
Hope this helps with the context.
