Proved at Folkingham on the sixth day of the month of February 1587/88** before Master Thomas Randes, Commissary and Official of the Archdeaconry of Lincoln, and the burden of execution of the said will was granted to the executor named above, who was sworn in form of law.

* the usual ending is ... with other me(n), but others seems to end in -s here, so I'm uncertain about the last word.

** 1588 according to the modern Calendar
