After a long Debate concerning this Bill, it is ORDERED, That this House adjourns this Debate until Thursday Morning next.

Slingsby versus Hale.

The House appointed Mr. Henry Slyngsby to be called in; and the Lord Keeper, by Directions of their Lordships, asked him, "What Intimation he gave to Mr. Hale of the Hearing of his Cause, and in what Manner?"

Mr. Slyngsby said, "That, in Pursuance of an Order of this House, dated the 28th of February last, he did, upon Wednesday the Second of this Instant March, offer unto Mr. William Hale a true Copy in Writing of his Petition and Appeal; and did also at the same Time give Intimation unto the said Mr. Hale, That their Lordships had appointed to take the said Petition into further Consideration this Day, to the End he might be heard, to make such Defence thereunto as he should see Cause; but the said Mr. Hale did refuse to take the Copy of the said Petition and Appeal, unless he would deliver unto him likewise the original Order signed by the Clerk of the Parliaments; which he being unwilling to do, because he had no Directions to serve Mr. Hale with the said Order, he replied, He would not take the one without the other, but would stay until he were served with the said Order."
