Wm Leonard to Lord Zouch: "A large Flemish ship laden with white wine is wrecked in the Narrow Seas and all the men drowned. The Earl of Oxfords fleet have picked up forty to fifty hogsheads which they found floating in the water, and the men of Dover have rescued several tuns, which remain at his Lordships disposal." (1) Thos Fulnetby to Lord Zouch: "Has had the wine casks filled up and been to Thanet about the ship wrecked but scarcely anything could be saved except the wine. She was a rich vessel and the crew of one of the kings ships pulled out of her three bags of mamsy and shared it amoungst themselves. His Lordship has lost 500 in this affair, because the sailors were so afraid of being impressed that they did not like to go to sea." (2) Date of Loss: R
