Executors Frederick Lovelock of Watlington Oxon, Innkeeper and George Bayliss of Sonning, Berks, Farmer. James' Will dated 30 June 1860 and proved 18 April 1864 established that he owned the 'Fox & Hounds' (together with 'Washhouse, Cellar, Coal or Woodhouse and the stable and grounds lying between it and my Garden...'] and Butchers Shop [together with 'Slaughter house, barn, stable, outhouse, courts, yards, close and appurtenances ....'] at Watlington and these were left to sons Frederick and George respectively. Frederick also inherited his twenty Wycombe and Thame Railroad shares. Other benefactors were daughters Sarah Baylis and Elizabeth Gibbons, son Henry [inherited household furniture, plate, linen, china and dairy utensils], son in law George Baylis and grandsons George and James. William Godfrey Spyer of Watlington, Auctioneer and his son William Godfrey Leaver Spyer, Chemist appointed as 'protectors' of estates. Son Henry and George Baylis were offered the 'farming business'. Son Frederick and George Baylis were appointed executors. Witnesses: Geo Eyre, Solicitor, Bensington, Oxfordshire and Marguerite Eyre his Wife. Son Henry and George Baylis do not appear to have taken up the farm tenancy as a new farmer is shown in Directories after James' death and the 1871 census. In 1901 a Thomas Parker was Licencee of the Fox & Hounds. The Hare and Hounds in Market Place, Watlington was rumoured to have the pleasure of entertaining John Hampden, leader of the Parliamentary forces in the Civil War, who stayed there on the night before the battle of Chalgrove Field in 1643. He is reputed to have left a chest containing money for the payment of troops in the care of the landlord, Robert Parslowe, before he departed for the battle. Hampden was fatally wounded and never collected the chest. Robert Parslowe died a wealthy man - too wealthy for the landlord of a small inn. In his will he set up a charity to help the poor of Watlington - the result of a guilty conscience? |
