Attended - first - as Clerk of the Company since March 1631 he would certainly have been passed over for election had he not argued that he deserved the same treatment as one of his predecessors as Clerk, namely to be an Assistant and have all the advantages of an Assistant, except the right to sit at the Table. On that condition he was elected, but accordingly did not take his seat until after he had resigned the Clerkshop on 3 May 1652. In the interim he was obliged to fine for those offices in which he could not serve.

Further Notes
Clerkship - Walley's final resignation as Clerk was preceded by an earlier "sudden and unadvised Resignacon" --- "being at that tyme much perplexed in mind" which he was permitted to withdraw at the meeting of the Court of 11 Mar 1652. --- Assistantship - Walley's seniority in the Company meant that his name came up in the 18 Aug 1643 election of Assistants, but as the Clerk of the Company since 1631 he would certainly have been passed over for election had he not argued that he deserved the same treatment as one of his predecessors as Clerk, Richard Collins, namely to be an Assistant and to have all the advantages of an Assistant, except the right to sit at the Table. On that condition he was elected, but accordingly did not take his seat until after he had resigned the Clerkshop on 3 May 1652. In the interim he was obliged to fine for those offices in which he could not serve. ---
