Napkin was involved in a legal dispute in 1627 when an unnamed accuser said that Napkyn had given the wife of Jeames Staffesmore, of St Clement Danes, three pills for a pain in the head, had incised her in three places, then given her three more pills. After treatment her face and body had swollen. Napkyn said he had only given pills to her after cutting her hair, and then only on Dr Rhead's advice. Dr. Rhead confirmed in writing that the giving of pills was his advice. The suit was to be withdrawn if Napkyn paid the charges and abstained from practice in future. There was a further charge in 1629 when Napkyn was charged over treatment of the late Mrs. Wale, but this charge seems also to have been dropped.One of the recipes loose in this volume is in the form of a letter sent to Robert Rowe, 14th February 1688, in which the sender adds a postscript on the political situation of the day, "... yesterday the Prince & Princess [William III & Mary II] ware proclaimed King & Queen the Duke of Grafton & Duke of Ormond are this day turned out of all there places some say for speaking in the convention in behalfe of the late King James the second here was great acclamations of joy last night carring ye Pope in procession & burning ye Pope...
