"Notwithstanding the law on the subject and the proclamations of Charles II, and Jas. II, ... this trade is carried on with armed companies of men, who convey wool out of the kingdom, beat off customs officers, and rescue goods seized by them. No sheep, wool, wool-fells, ... is to be exported into Scotland or elsewhere, on pain of the severest penalties"-- Crawford
