Message from the King, concerning a Recess.

Message he was commanded to deliver to their Lordships
from the King; which his Lordship read, as followeth:
"Charles R.
"His Majesty being frequently desired, by several
Members of the House of Peers, to dispense with
their Absence from the Service of the House, and
to give them Leave to go into the Country for
their Healths and their Affairs; and finding that
the Circuits will carry very many of the Members of
the House of Commons in their several Countries,
where (He doubts not) they will much advance His
Majesty's Service, and the Peace of the Kingdom;
and the House of Commons having, by their Speaker,
desired His Majesty's Leave to go into the Country: His
Majesty is graciously pleased that both Houses shall have
a Recess upon Saturday the Eight of the next Month,
in which Time He doubts not but Care will be taken
for the raising such Money as shall be necessary
for the Payment of the Debts of the Navy, disbanding the Army, and supporting them till they shall
be disbanded; which His Majesty desires as much as
any Man. And His Majesty intends that both Houses
shall meet again upon Tuesday the Sixth of November
next.
