The news was upon the Exchange the next day. It seems there was a person at Gravesend that knew you who came up that tide and reported saw you embark upon the Flushing pink, which was told Mr Bradick who immediately told all that knew you. Who, with '''James Cowse''' pretends you owe them 16,000 Rs, who seem to be vexed at your going away and affect their pretence. They brought a sergeant to make an attachment in my hands for goods and monies of yours, but your release did soon cool their courage. Whereupon seeing that, they desisted.

His patent, giving him a monopoly of ballast between London Bridge and the Nore, was described as ‘no less oppressive than illegal’. He employed 240 men, and cleared £1,500 a year profit.3''' Bowerman, after serving in the Six Clerks’ office of Chancery, succeeded his father in the patent. His marriage brought him Dorset connexions, since his wife’s brother-in-law was headmaster of Sherborne; it also linked him with the Goodenough brothers, who as under-sheriffs of London played such an important part in returning suitable juries during the Popish Plot and the exclusion crisis. He may have been urged to enter Parliament by Sir William Bowerman, clerk comptroller of the Household, who claimed kin in Dorset, and could also have recommended him to his colleague on the board of green cloth, (Sir) Winston Churchill. Bowerman began to establish an interest at Bridport some time before the sudden death of Humphrey Bishop in November 1675. The inordinate delay in the execution of the writ, of which he complained, must have been intended to damage his chances; nevertheless, when it came to a poll, his principal opponent ( Wadham Strangways) withdrew, and Bowerman defeated the other candidate, John Hurding (who enjoyed the advantage of being the sheriff’s step-father) by two to one. But the election had been ruinously expensive; he had to borrow £2,500, making over the ballast office (worth £700 p.a.) as security.4 Meanwhile, Bowerman had taken his seat in the House, but he was not to enjoy the indulgence traditionally granted to new Members. Hardly had he been named to his first committee when he was the subject of a personal attack by William Garway over the regular use of his yacht for carrying over recruits to the French army. Bowerman either could not or dared not reply. He was noted by opposition pamphleteers as a member of the Court party and a placeman. Needless to say Shaftesbury marked him ‘thrice vile’. He sat on 11 committees, none of political significance.5 On the dissolution of the Cavalier Parliament, Bowerman wrote to Thomas Strangways: ''I received a letter from Bridport yesterday wherein I find that all their voices are at your and Mr Wadham’s disposal. If you have thoughts to stand yourself or to put in some particular friend, I would by no means give you any trouble.'' In the event Strangways wrote to the corporation in favour of his brother Wadham Strangways and George Ryves, though the latter failed to secure a seat. No more is heard of Bowerman; probably his purse was exhausted, for it was in the King’s Bench prison that he made his will on 19 Apr. 1683. He was buried at Greenwich a week later.6 Notes 1.

On that plantation Lancelott Peacock then lived and he owned it in partnership with Henry Quintyne. The plantation consisted of 77 acres and was sold with the grounds, timber, buildings, servants, profits and everything appertaining or belonging to it. The provision and true intent of the Counter Deed was that so long as Henry Quintyne, his heirs and assigns should be content and should pay or cause to be paid eventually unto Samuel Barton and Samuel Leadbetter or their attorneys the sum of £100 of lawful English money according to the tenor of the bills on September 25, 1648 they were free of any further debt; and consequently the Counter Deed should be null and void. Otherwise the provision and conditions of the Counter Deed remained. The plantation was declared free of any incumbrance. The legal right of Henry Quintyne was safe-guarded.

In his name they were to keep possession of the one half of a plantation consisting of 77 acres of ground or thereabouts. Also they had charge of one half of the edifices and what also belonged thereunto. Quintyre had recently purchased this Barbadian property from Lancelott Peacock gent of Barbados. The attorneys also had charge [sent by Henry Quintyre] of all the servants sent out for employment on the plantation with the edifices thereon. They were empowered to farm lett and sell by Bill of Sale what they should deem most advantageous on his behalf. They were to ask, demand and receive sums of money, debts, goods, merchantize, cotton, sugar and all other things whatsoever from any person in Barbados or any of the Caribbee Islands. They were granted the usual powers of attorneys so as to enable them to collect these debts. They were granted power to revoke and conclude anything concerning the plantation.
