Nevill and Fane, for the Barony of Abergaventty.
The Cause concerning the Barony of Bergevenie was
begun to be heard again this Day, according to the former Appointment the 26th April; but, by Occasion of
a Message that came from the Lower House, and some
Consultation had thereupon by the Lords, concerning
the Matter of Union, the farther Proceeding in the said
Cause was deferred till To-morrow Morning; and the
Parties, with their Learned Counsel, commanded then
to attend for that Purpose.
Ecclesiastical Affairs.
A Message from the Lower House, delivered by Mr.
Vice-Chamberlain and others, signifying, that, touching
the Conference for Matters Ecclesiastical, they have chosen Committees, and will be ready to meet when their
Lordships shall appoint.
Answer, That the Lords will consider of it, and will
presently send them Answer thereunto.
The Union of England and Scotland.
When those of the Lower House were departed, The
Lords did consult what Answer were sit to return unto
them, and what farther Message might be sent them for
the procuring of Conference again this Day, about the
Matter of Union; to which End, the Lord Chancellor
did deliver (as he was desired by the Lord Cecyll and
others) a brief Narration of the Conference with the
Committees upon Saturday last, that thereby it might
be the better considered of what were meet to propone
unto them; which being debated of by the Lords, Mr.
Attorney General, Mr. Dr. Swale, and Mr. Dr. Hone
were sent unto them, with this Message: That, whereas their Lordships had received a Message from them,
signifying they were ready for Conference about Matters
Ecclesiastical, the Lords did confess that a Meeting was
due for the same, and they would willingly afford it so
soon as conveniently they might: But, because the Priority of Time and Consultation was to be given to the
great Matter concerning the Union, and forasmuch as,
at the last Conference, the Lords promised that they
would inform themselves, by the Opinion of the Judges,
concerning the Name or Appellation of Great Britain,
and accordingly acquaint the Committees of the Lower
House therewith; the Lords did therefore desire, that,
as well for yielding of them Satisfaction in that Particular, as for Conference to be had about the other Point
touching the Matter of the Commission, they would
meet with their Lordships this Afternoon by Three of
the Clock, at the Outward Chamber, near the Parliament Presence, and to come prepared and authorized to
speak of the said Matter of the Commission. Hereunto
the Lower House returned Answer, that, although they
could now be well prepared for that Conference, yet, to
shew their Willingness in this Behalf, they would attend
for that Purpose, at the Time and Place appointed by
their Lordships; and withal did hope and desire, that
the Lords will deliver such a Proportion and Proposition
in a Matter of such Importance, as they may afterwards
well advise upon such Answer and Resolution as shall be
meet.
Upon this Answer returned from the Lower House,
that they would give Meeting; it was debated and considered by the Lords, what Points were necessary to be
propounded unto them at this Conference; wherein, after many of their Lordships had delivered their Opinions,
the Lord Chancellor did propone these Particulars followlowing; which were all approved and allowed of by the
Lords.
1. To signify unto them, that the Judges having delivered their Opinions, that the Name cannot be altered
now without Prejudice to the State (rebus sic stantibus)
therefore that Point was at an End.
2. The Lords did desire to have mutual Conference
with them of the other Point, touching the Commission,
according to the King's Proposition.
3. To be moved unto them for the nominating of
Commissioners this Parliament to treat of those Matters.
4. That some Committees of both Houses may be appointed and selected for the framing of a Bill, touching
that great Matter.

" The Condition of this Obligation is such; That
whereas the King's Majesty, by His several Letters
Patents, under the Great Seal of England, in Consideration of the good, long, and faithful Service heretofore done by the above-bounden Sir Edward Bruce,
Knight, Master of the Rolls, did give and grant to
him and his Heirs, the Castle and Lordship of Whorleton, in the County of Yorke, and divers other Lands,
Tenements, and Hereditaments, within the said County, late Parcel of the late dissolved Monastery of
Jervaux; and where also the said Edward Bruce,
Knight, Master of the Rolls, hath preferred a Petition to His Majesty, in the High Court of Parliament,
humbly desiring that the said Grants may be enacted
and strengthened by Authority of the same; and
whereas, in regard it was known to some of the Lords
of the High Court of Parliament, that divers the
Tenants of the said Lordship and Premisses had obtained several Leases of several Messuages and Lands,
Parcel of the Premisses, from the late Queen's Majesty,
and had paid their whole Fines, or some Part thereof,
either to the said late Queen, or to the King's Majesty
that now is, which Leases, the said Lords are informed, be not good in Law; and yet, taking Compassion of
the said Tenants, have moved the said Sir Edward Bruce,
Knight, Master of the Rolls, to deal favourably with
such of the said Tenants as heretofore have not yielded,
or agreed to yield up, relinquish, or forego, to the
said Sir Edward Bruce, all Claim, Title, and Demand, which they, or any of them, could make, by
Colour of any such Lease or Leases (if the said Grants
to him made of the Premisses, as aforesaid, happen
to be enacted as is desired); whereunto the said Edward Bruce yielded his Consent: If therefore the said
Sir Edward Bruce, Knight, his Executors or Administrators, or some of them, at all Times after the said
Grants to him made as aforesaid of the Premisses, be
enacted and adjudged good and available in Law, by
Authority of the said High Court of Parliament, in
sort as by the said Petition is desired, do well and truly content, satisfy, and pay, or cause to be contented,
satisfied, and paid, unto every such of the said Tenants
as had any Lease or Leases of any Part or Parcel of any
the Premisses to them, or any of them, made by the
said late Queen's Majesty, in Consideration of any Fine,
or Fines; whereof the whole, or any Part thereof,
hath been paid and satisfied therefore; or in Consideration of Service, or other valuable Consideration; and
which Tenant and Tenants have not, before the Ensealing and Delivery of these Presents, consented and
agreed to renounce, relinquish, and forego, all Title,
Right, Interest, Claim, and Demand, which they, or
any of them, could or might make to any Part or Parcel of the Premisses, by Colour of the said several
Leases to any and every of them made by the said late
Queen's Majesty, all such Sum and Sums of Money as
they, or any of them, have paid to the said late Queen's
Majesty, or the King's Majesty that now is, by way of
Fine or Fines for their said several Leases, or other Recompence, where no Fine hath been given, but the
Estates made in Consideration of Service, or other valuable Consideration; and the said Sums of Money to
be repaid, or Recompence to be made at such Days and
Times as the above-named Thomas Earl of Dorsett, Robert Lord Cecyll, Edward Lord Zouche, Edmund Lord
Sheffeild, and Edward Lord Wotton, or any Three of
them, shall limit and appoint, or else abide such Order
for the making of several new Leases to every of the
said Tenants of his several Tenement, for such Terms,
and under such Increase of Yearly Rent, as the said
Lords, or any Three of them, shall order and judge:
That then this present Obligation shall be void and
of none Effect, or else stand and remain in Force and
Virtue."
