...
Christopher Thompson, draper and merchant tailor, served as senior bailiff in 1637 and 1644, but it seems more likely that he is being paid here for making the waits' liveries, than in his administrative capacity (Corporation Minute Book 1621–49, NYCRO DC/SCB II/1/1/1; Jack Binns, letter to editor, 21 October 2019).
