Upon Oath made at the Bar of this House, by William Barrington, One of the Messengers employed by the Serjeant at Arms attending this House for attaching the Bodies of Samuell Pritchard and Roderick Gwinn, by an Order of this House, dated the 12th Day of November last, for Offences by them committed against this House, "That he the said William Barington having charged Mr. Taylor, a Constable of Graies Inne Ward, to assist him, did near Grayes Inne attach the said Samuell Pritchard and Roderick Gwinn in the Street, where Roderick Gwinn running away, and the said William Barrington pursuing him, left the said Samuell Pritchard in the Custody of the said Mr. Taylor the Constable, who wilfully suffered him to make an Escape:"

It is thereupon ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the Serjeant at Arms attending this House, or his Deputies, shall forthwith attach the Body of the said Mr. Taylor, and bring him in safe Custody to the Bar of this House, to answer his said Offence: And for so doing, this shall be a sufficient Warrant.

Tho. Pritchard to be attached, for scandalous Words.

Upon Oath made at the Bar of this House, by Thomas Trulocke, One of the Messengers employed by the Serjeant at Arms attending this House for attaching the Bodies of Samuell Pritchard and Rodericke Gwinn, by a Warrant of this House, dated the 12th Day of November last, for Offences by them committed against this House (who, being served with the said Warrant, have made their Escape out of the Messenger's Hand), "That Thomas Pritchard, of Grayes Inne, whose Chamber was searched for the said Prisoners (he being present at their Attachment), desired to see the aforesaid Warrant; which being shewed him, he used very scandalous Words of the said Warrant, to the Dishonour of this House:"

It is thereupon ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the Serjeant at Arms attending this House, or his Deputies, shall forthwith attach the Body of the said Thomas Pritchard, and bring him in safe Custody to the Bar of this House to answer his said Offence: And this shall be a sufficient Warrant on that Behalf.

Brookes, E. of Dorset's Servant, arrested.

Upon Oath made at the Bar of this House, by Miles Martine and John Reeve, "That Jane Brookes (who is owned by the Earl of Dorset to be his Lordship's menial Servant) was arrested, by Thomas Herrington, One of the Serjeants of Woodstreet Compter (sitting this Parliament), contrary to the Privilege of Parliament, notwithstanding she produced a Protection signed and sealed by the Earl of Dorset; which the said Thomas Herrington would not obey, but carried her to Prison:"

Herrington to be attached.

It is ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the Serjeant at Arms attending this House, or his Deputies, shall forthwith attach the Body of the said Thomas Herrington, and bring him in safe Custody to the Bar of this House, to answer his said Offence: And this shall be a sufficient Warrant on that Behalf.

D. of Bucks, Claim to the Title of L. Roos.

Upon hearing Counsel this Day at the Bar, to shew how far the Expression of Lord Ross, mentioned in the Bill, intituled, "An Act for illegitimating of the Three Children of the Lady Anne Ross," may be prejudicial to the Duke of Bucks; and after some Consideration had thereupon:

It is ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the Lords Committees to whom the said Bill stands committed, shall meet To-morrow, at Three of the Clock in the Afternoon, and at such other Times after as they think fit, to proceed in considering of the said Bill, and to endeavour to find out some such Expedient as may satisfy both Parties.

L. Hatton, Privilege : Winn, who arrested Jones his Servant, released.

Whereas George Wynne, being in the Custody of the Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod attending this House, for causing William Jones, Servant to the Lord Hatton, a Peer of this Realm, to be arrested (sitting the Parliament), contrary to the Privilege of Parliament, was this Day brought to the Bar; he there expressing his hearty Sorrow for his said Offence, and humbly begging the Pardon of this House for the same:

It is thereupon ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled (the Lord Hatton having signified his Willingness thereunto), That the said George Winne be, and is hereby, discharged from his present Restraint for his said Offence, paying his Fees: And this shall be a sufficient Warrant on that Behalf.
