Forgery of the E. of Huntingdon's Protection.

George Gardner and George Buttrice were brought to the Bar, to answer their high Contempt, for counterfeiting the Hand and Seal of the Earl of Huntingdon unto Protections.

George Gardner denied the Forgery; affirming that he had many such Protections from one Tymothy Chastleton; and that he sold them unto divers.

Whereupon it is Ordered, That the Serjeant at Arms shall cause the said Tymothy Chastleton to be brought before their Lordships.

And that the said George Gardner shall be in the mean Time committed to The Fleet; and their Lordships appointed the said Gardyner to be brought hither again when the said Chastleton shall be here.

George Buttreye also denied the Forgery; but confessed that he bought one of the said Protections of the said Gardyner, not knowing that it was forged; and denied that he knew of any more.

Whereupon the said George Buttrey is committed to The Fleet, during the Pleasure of the House.

It is Agreed, That Sir Peter Vanlore may withdraw the Bill which he hath exhibited, for the Sale of Sir Richard Lydall's Land, and present a new Bill to the House, if he please.

And whereas it was reported to the House this Day, by the Lord Bishop of Norwich, That the said Committee do think it fit that the said Bill shall sleep for ever, and also that the said Sir Edward Fisher and John Wrenham, and the Assignees under the said Wrenham, mentioned and intended in the Bill, shall (fn. 2) become bound unto each other in the Sum of Five Thousand Pounds, to stand unto and perform the Award and final Determination of the Lord Keeper of the Great Seal of England, upon the whole Merit of the Cause. And whereas it was further reported this Day, That the said Sir Edward Fisher and John Wrenham, and the Assignees, did mutually agree thereunto; it is therefore Ordered, That the said Bill shall sleep for ever; and that the said Parties shall be bound each to other in Five Thousand Pounds, to stand unto and perform the Award and Arbitrement of the Lord Keeper herein; and that such Award as the Lord Keeper, as Arbitrator, shall make herein, shall be final, and shall conclude each and every of them from all other Suits hereafter, touching any of the Causes contained in the said Bill.
