Message from H. C. for a Conference on the Habeas Corpus Bill.
A Message was brought from the House of Commons,
by Sir Thomas Clargis and others:
To desire a Free Conference, concerning the Matter of the last Free Conference, touching the Bill
for the better securing the Liberty of the Subject.
The Question was put, "Whether to appoint
this Free Conference to be presently?"
And it was Resolved in the Affirmative.
Then,
The Answer returned was:
Answer.
That the Lords have considered of the Message, and
do agree to a Free Conference, as is desired; and do appoint the same to be presently, in the Painted Chamber.
The same Lords who were appointed to manage the
Free Conference formerly concerning this Bill are to
manage this Free Conference.
The House was adjourned during Pleasure, and the
Lords went to the Conference; which being ended,
the House was resumed.
Report of the Conference.
The Lord President of the Council reported the Effect of the Free Conference had this Day, upon the
Amendments made by the Lords to the Bill for the better securing the Liberty of the Subject, and for preventing of Imprisonments beyond the Seas; to which
the Commons did not formerly agree, and on which the
Lords formerly insisted: "But, at the Free Conference
had Yesterday at the Desire of this House, the said
Amendments were so waved by the Lords, with the
Condition of adding other Clauses to the Bill, as that
the Commons had the Liberty of their Choice, Whether to admit of the said Conditions, waving the
Lords Amendments; or to agree to the Amendments
formerly insisted on: Upon these alternative Propositions, the Commons have (upon Consideration)
thought fit rather to admit of the Amendments made
formerly by the Lords to the Bill; videlicet, In the
4th Skin, 3d Line and 11th Line; and 5 Skin, 33th
Line; and 9 Skin, 24 Line; than of the Conditional
Clauses and Alterations proposed by the Lords at the
Free Conference had Yesterday; and so have delivered at this Free Conference, to your Lordships, the
Bill closed up and perfected."
To which this House agreed.
King is coming in His Robes.
The Lord Great Chamberlain acquainted the House,
"That His Majesty did intend presently to come to this
House, in His Robes."
Message to H. C. to acquaint them with it.
A Message was sent to the House of Commons, by
Sir John Franklin and Sir John Hoskins:
To give them Notice, that His Majesty will come to
the House, in His Robes; therefore to desire they will
sit a while.
The House was adjourned during Pleasure, and the
Lords went to put on their Robes; which being done,
the House was resumed.
King present.
His Majesty, sitting in His Royal Throne, adorned
with His Crown and other Regal Ornaments, commanded the Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod to signify to the House of Commons His Majesty's Pleasure,
"That they attend Him presently."
Who being come, with their Speaker; His Majesty
gave His Royal Assent to these Bills following:

"An Act for re-ingrossing the Records of Fines burnt
or lost in the late Fire in The Temple."
"An Act for the better securing the Liberty of the
Subject, and for preventing of Imprisonments beyond
the Seas."
To which Public Bills the Royal Assent was pronounced, by the Clerk of the Parliaments, in
these Words,
"Le Roy le veult."
"An Act for Sale of the Lands of Charles Dale, of
the County of Rutland, Esquire, deceased, for Payment of his Debts, and Provision for his Daughters
and Coheirs."
To which Private Bill the Royal Assent was pronounced in these Words,
"Soit fait come il est desiré."
Then His Majesty made a short Speech, to this Effect:
"My Lords and Gentlemen,
King's Speech.
"I was in good Hopes that this Session would have
produced great Good to the Kingdom; and that you
would have gone on unanimously for the Good thereof: But, to my great Grief, I see that there are
such Differences between the Two Houses, that I am
afraid very ill Effects will come of them: I know but
One Way of Remedy for the present; assuring you,
that, in the mean Time, I shall shew My Sincerity
with the same Zeal I met you here: Therefore, my
Lord Chancellor, I command you to do as I ordered
you."
Then the Lord Chancellor said,
Parliament prorogued.
"My Lords; and you the Knights, Citizens, and
Burgesses of the House of Commons;
"His Majesty's Royal Will and Pleasure is, That
this Parliament be prorogued to the Fourteenth Day
of August next; and this Parliament is prorogued to
the Fourteenth Day of August next."
Hitherto examined, this 31th of May, 1679, by us,
