A dual-language (English and Latin) royal writ granting Charles I's assent to the nomination of Richard Parre as Bishop of Man and Sodor. The document records the patronage chain from Parliament through William, Earl of Derby, and directs the Archbishop of York to consecrate and invest Parre. It illustrates the constitutional relationship between the Crown, the Derby family's lordship of Man, and ecclesiastical authority during the 1630s.
