Pilkington versus Bolsworth, in Error.

Whereas, by virtue of Their Majesties Writ of Error returnable into the House of Peers in Parliament assembled, a Record of the Court of King's Bench was brought into this House, on the 17th Day of May last, with the Transcript thereof, wherein Judgement is entered for Edmond Bolsworth against Thomas Pilkington, late of Southwarke, in the County of Surrey, Esquire, now Sir Thomas Pilkington Lord Mayor of London; upon which Errors were assigned and Issue joined, and this Day Counsel heard at the Bar, to argue the Errors thereupon:

It is ORDERED and Adjudged, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the said Judgement given for the said Edmond Bollesworth, against the said Thomas Pilkington now Lord Mayor, be, and is hereby, affirmed; and that the Transcript of the said Record, wherein Judgement is entered as aforesaid, be remitted.

The Tenor of which Judgement follows:

"Postea, scilicet, 17° Die Maii, Anno Regni Domini Will'i et Dominæ Mariæ nunc Regis et Reginæ Angliæ, &c. Primo, Transcript. Record. et Process. præd. inter Partes præd. cum omnibus ea tangen. Prætextu cujusdam Brevis de Errore corrigend. per præsat. Thomam Pilkington in Præmiss. prosecut. dicto Domino Regi et Dominæ Reginæ, in præsenti Parliamento præd. Cur. dict. Domini Regis et Dominæ Reginæ hic transmiss. suit; præd. Thom. Pilkington, in eadem Cur. Parliam. comparens, diversas Causas et Materias pro Erroribus in Record. et Process. præd. pro Revocatione et Adnullatione Judicii præd. assign.; et postea, scilicet, 3° Die Junii, Anno dict. Domini Regis et Dominæ Reginæ supradict. in præd. Cur. Parliament. præd. visis et per Cur. ibidem diligent. examinar. et plenius intellect. tam Record. et Process. præd. ac Judicio super eisdem reddit. quam præd. Error. superius assignat. pro eo quod videtur Cur. Parliament. præd. quod Record. ill. in nullo vitiosum aut defectivum existit. et quod in Record. ill. in nullo fuit Errat. ideo ad tunc et ibidem consideratum est per eandem Cur. Parliam. præd. quod Judic. præd. in omnibus affirmetur, et in omni suo Robore stet et Effectu."

Quarrel between E. Oxon and E. Huntingdon.

The Earl Marshal acquainted the House, "That he understanding there was like to be a Quarrel between Two Lords of this House, he thought it his Duty to prevent their Meeting; the Persons were the Earl of Oxon and the Earl of Huntingdon, who have engaged themselves to be present here this Day."

The Earl of Oxon confessed, "They were Words of Heat which fell from him; and he so far from having any Malice, that he hath not thought of them since; and declared he had no Ill-will towards the Earl of Huntingdon; and begged Pardon of this House for what he had done."

These Lords withdrew themselves several Ways.

And being called in again to their Places, the Speaker did tell them, "That the House did command them both to acquiesce and proceed no further in this Business, as they will answer the contrary to this House."

To which Command of the House, they both declared their Obedience.

Adjourn.

Marq. de Halyfax, Orator Procerum pro Tempore, declaravit præsens Parliamentum continuandum esse usque in diem Martis, videlicet, 4um diem instantis Junii, hora decima Aurora, Dominis sic decernentibus.
