Following Philip Henslowe's death, his nephew John Henslowe charges Edward Alleyn, Agnes Henslowe, and Roger Cole[s] with having suppressed a former will, and with the criminal misrepresentation of his uncle Henslowe's estate. The Chancery suit provides valuable details concerning Henslowe's property in Surrey. Mr Moore, one of the Masters of the Chancery Court, delivers the first report on the case. He considers that the swiftness with which Edward Alleyn has pushed Phillip Henslowe's will through probate is in itself suspicious, and that Alleyn's response to John Henslowe's charges has been inadequate.
