Ly. Reade versus Sir J. Reade.
This Day Sir John Reade personally appeared at the
Bar, according to the Order of this House, and delivered
his Answer in Writing to the Petition of Dame Allissimon his Wife.
Which Answer being read; after some Debate, it
was propounded, "That it might be put to the Question, Whether Sir John Reade should be asked, whether he will obey the Order of the Ecclesiastical
Court?"
And the Question being put, "Whether this
Question shall be put to him?"
It was Resolved in the Affirmative.
Upon this, Sir John Reade was called in; and the
Speaker, in the Name of the House, asked him, "Whether he would obey the Order of the Ecclesiastical
Court?"
His Answer was to this Effect: "That he had obeyed
the Order of the Ecclesiastical Court, having suffered
the Penalty of Excommunication, for not paying Two
Hundred Pounds; and he could not in Honour go
back."
The House, not being satisfied with this Answer,
did order, That Sir John Reade should be called in
again, and told, "That he had trifled with the House in
his Answer; therefore the Lords had ordered, That
he shall have Time till To-morrow Morning, to give
his positive Answer to this Question, videlicet, Whether he will obey the Decree of the Ecclesiastical
Court, in allowing Alimony to the Lady Reade his
Wife, in order to the bringing of the Cause between
them to a Hearing, upon the Merits thereof in that
Court? And that he shall have the Protection of this
House, for his safe coming, staying, and returning
during the Dependance of his Business in this House;
whereof all Persons concerned are to take Notice, and
yield Obedience hereunto accordingly."
This Order was declared to Sir John Reade, at the
Bar, by the Lord Keeper.
Sequestrations in Chancery.
ORDERED, That To-morrow Morning this House
will take into further Consideration the Report concerning the issuing of Sequestrations upon Estates out of
the Chancery.
