Conference reported.
And the Duke of Bolton reported, "That the Commons have agreed to some of the Amendments made
by the Lords, and disagreed to others, for the Reasons
following; (videlicet,)
Commons Reasons for disagreeing to the Lords Amendments to the Bill.
"Reasons for the Commons disagreeing to some
of the Amendments made by the Lords to
the Bill for regulating of Trials, in Cases of
High Treason and Misprision of Treason."
"The Commons do disagree to the Amendment,
1 Skin, L. 16; because your Lordships, by agreeing to
the Bill (though not to the Commencement of it)
do allow that the Bill is necessary for the regulating
of Trials, in Cases of High Treason and Misprision
of Treason: And if such a Law be necessary, the
Commons cannot think it just or reasonable, that the
Hardships in such Trials should continue, and the
Lives of innocent Persons be exposed, till 1698.
"The Commons do disagree to the Amendment,
2 Skin, L. 22; to leave out from ["and"] to ["that"]
in L. 35, and read, ["Be it further Enacted, by the
Authority aforesaid"]; because that Clause for the
Limitation of a certain Time, wherein the Offender
shall be accused, is necessary for preserving innocent
Persons, who, by Length of Time, may be made incapable of making their just Defence.
"The Commons do disagree to the Clause (B);
because it is of a different Nature from the rest of
the Bill (in which the Lords have an equal Benefit
with the Commons), and which extends no further
than to allow the Subject a more equal Way of
making his Defence; but not to alter the Court or
Method of constituting it."
It is ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the Consideration of
the Report this Day of the Conference with the House
of Commons, upon the Lords Amendments to the
Bill, intituled, "An Act for regulating of Trials, in
"Cases of High Treason and Misprision of Treason,"
shall be resumed on Wednesday next, at Eleven of the
Clock.
Lancashire Trials:
The House this Day resuming the Consideration of
the Proceedings in relation to the late Trials in Lancashire; and, after Debate concerning the same, the
House agreed as followeth; (videlicet,)
Resolution that there were Grounds for the Prosecutions.
"Resolved, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in
Parliament assembled, That this House is of Opinion,
That there were sufficient Grounds for directing the
Prosecution of the Gentlemen that were lately tried
in Lancashire."
"It is ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the further Consideration of what remains undetermined, in respect
to the Proceedings and Trials in Lancashire, shall be
resumed on Monday next, at Eleven of the Clock;
and that all the Lords be summoned then to attend,
and Mr. Justice Eyre."
