PRAYERS.
The Earl of Rochester reported from the Committee,
the Draught of an Address to be presented to the King,
concerning the Papists.
Which was read, and agreed to with some Amendments; the Tenor whereof followeth:
Address to the King, to put in Execution the Laws against Papists.
"To the King's most Excellent Majesty.
"We Your Majesty's most faithful and loyal Subjects, the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in this present
Parliament assembled, having received Information of
great Numbers of Papists who have lately left their
Habitations in their several Countries, and have resorted, and daily come, to the Cities of London and
Westminster, which have been found dangerous to the
Peace of the Kingdom, and may be so to Your Majesty's Person and Government, and hath been occasioned chiefly, as we conceive, by the not putting in
Execution the several Laws and Statutes prohibiting
Popish Recusants to come to London, or within Ten
Miles thereof, do, for the better Preservation of the
common Safety, most humbly beseech Your Majesty,
that You would be graciously pleased to enjoin a more
due and speedy Execution of all those Laws which
restrain Papists from coming to London, or within Ten
Miles thereof; and that, in order thereunto, Your
Majesty will be pleased to issue out Your Royal Proclamation, requiring the Lord Mayor of the City of
London for the Time being, and all Justices of the
Peace, as they will answer the contrary at their Peril,
to put in speedy Execution One Act made in this
present Parliament, intituled, (fn. *) An Act for amoving
Papists and reputed Papists from the Cities of London
and Westminst. and Ten Miles distant from the same;
and that they do vigorously proceed in the Ways and
Methods therein prescribed for the better discovering
and amoving of them."

the Petition and Appeal of Sir Richard Derham Knight

were Complainants, against the said Sir Richard Derham
and Sir John Edwards Defendants, complaining of several
Things, as in the Petition are set forth; as also upon the

Exchequer, against the Petitioner, for Non-payment
of Small Tithes; which he not answering, Crossman
exhibited another Bill against him; which being read
in Court Three several Times, the Court decreed all
the Suggestions in the said Bill should be taken against
the Petitioner pro Confesso, and he charged in Execution for Twenty Pounds Costs of Suit;" as also upon
the Answer of James Crossman, Vicar of Banwell, in
the County of Somerset, put in thereunto:

wherein James Thwayts is Plaintiff, and John Deye and

Wife have hereby further Time given them, for answering thereunto, until Thursday the 19th Instant, at
Ten of the Clock in the Forenoon.
