E. Pembroke, Vile his Servant, Privilege not allowed.

Whereas, upon Complaint made to this House, "That Thomas Vile, Servant to the Earl of Pembrooke, was arrested in January last, by Wytham, One of the Serjeants of The Poultrey Compter, at the Suit of Daniell Templeman Wine-cooper, contrary to the Privilege of Parliament;" the said Daniell Templeman and Wytham were this Day heard, at the Bar, what they had to say for themselves for their Proceedings against the said Thomas Vile; as also the Witnesses, who apeared on the Behalf of the said Thomas Vile, were heard what they could say concerning him:

This House being therewith satisfied, that the said Thomas Vile is not sufficiently capacitated to have the Benefit of the Privilege by him claimed, as Servant to the Earl of Pembrooke; it is thereupon ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the said Daniell Templeman and Wytham be discharged from any further Attendance concerning this Matter.

It is ORDERED, That the said Bill is committed to the Committee of the whole House; with this Direction,

"That the Attainder be left out of the Bill; and that the House be put into a Committee upon the said Bill To-morrow Morning."

E. Devon, excused.

This Day Justinian Morse and Marmaduke Crofts deposed, at the Bar, upon Oath, "That the Earl of Devon is so ill at present, that they believe he cannot give his Attendance upon this House at this Time, without Danger of his Life."

Hereupon the House accepted of this Excuse.
