2. "An Act for naturalizing Dame Mary Frazer and

Hodie 2a

House to petition the King to issue a Commission for taking Public Accompts.
ORDERED, That the Lord Chancellor, Lord Privy
Seal, Lord Chamberlain, Earl of Anglesey, Lord Lucas,
and the Lord Ashley, do consider of a Petition to be
presented to the King, that He would be pleased to issue

Quarrel between the D. of Bucks and the Marq. of Dorchester.
The Lord Chamberlain acquainted the House, "That
there was an ill Accident fell out when the Lords
were at the Conference this Day in the Painted
Chamber, by reason of a Quarrel between the Duke
of Bucks and the Marquis of Dorchester."
The Duke of Bucks gave the House an Account of
the Occasion; and alledged, "That the Marquis of
Dorchester gave him the Lie."
The Marquis of Dorchester declared the Manner of
the Difference; which he alledged was occasioned by
some ill Carriage and Language given by the Duke of
Bucks, whereupon they rose up to offend each other.
Upon this, the House commanded them both to withdraw several Ways.
And, upon Consideration hereof, for the present,
the House ORDERED, That the Duke of Bucks and the
Marquis of Dorchester, for this Offence, shall stand
committed to The Tower of London, during the Pleasure
of this House.
Then the House commanded, That these Two Lords
should be brought to the Bar as Delinquents, and receive
the Order of the House.
Both committed to The Tower.
And first the Duke of Bucks was brought; who
having kneeled, the Lord Chancellor, in the Name of
the House, told him, "That his Offence was of so high
a Nature, that this House hath taken little Time to
consider of it, being a great Offence to the King
Himself, and an Affront to this House, bringing a
Reproach upon their Lordships in the Face of the
Kingdom; for which this House hath ordered him to
stand committed to The Tower of London, during the
Pleasure of this House."
The Marquis of Dorchester was likewise brought to
the Bar; who having kneeled, the Lord Chancellor, in
the Name of the House, told him, "That his Offence
was of so high a Nature, that this House hath taken
little Time to consider of it, being a great Offence to
the King Himself, and an Affront to this House,
bringing a Reproach upon their Lordships in the Face
of the Kingdom; for which this House hath ordered
him to stand committed to The Tower of London during
the Pleasure of this House."
ORDERED, That the Lieutenant of The Tower of
London, or his Deputy, shall receive the Body of George
Duke of Bucks, and keep him in safe Custody in the
said Tower of London, until the Pleasure of this House
be further signified (for his great Offence against His
Majesty and this House, in quarreling and proceeding
therein to ill Language with the Marquis of Dorchester;
in the Painted Chamber, during a Conference between
the Committees of both House:) And this shall be a
sufficient Warrant in that Behalf.
ORDERED, That the Lieutenant of The Tower of
London, or his Deputy, shall receive the Body of Henry
Marquis of Dorchester, and keep him in safe Custody
in the said Tower of London, until the Pleasure of this
House be further signified (for his great Offence against
His Majesty and this House, in quarreling and proceeding therein to ill Language with the Duke of
Bucks, in the Painted Chamber, during a Conference between the Committees of both Houses:) And this shall
be a sufficient Warrant in that Behalf.
ORDERED, That the Gentleman Usher of the Black
Rod attending this House shall take into his Custody the
Bodies of George Duke of Bucks and Henry Marquis of
Dorchester, and in Safety convey them to The Tower of
London, and deliver them into the Custody of the Lieutenant of The Tower.

The House was resumed.
