"The humble Petition of Cornelius Cooke, of the
Parish of Olaves Southwarke, in the County
of Surrey;
"Sheweth,
"That your Petitioner, being One of the Churchwardens of the said Parish in the Year 1641, was,
with his Partners, desired by many godly Persons in
the Parish to cause the Rails about the Communion
Table to be taken down; at whose Request, as also
for Satisfaction of tender Consciences, and to avoid
the Mischief which might ensue by taking down the
same in a disorderly and tumultuous Manner, as had
happened in other Parishes, your Petitioner, with
Mr. Robert Haughton and Captain John Rose his Partners, consented to the removing thereof; which
was done in a peaceable and orderly Manner, to the
Satisfaction of the godly Party, who had been forced
from the Ordinance because they could not conform
to the Custom of receiving at the Rails.
"That afterwards your Petitioner and his said Partners were, by Mr. George Nash and Mr. Robert Osbolston, and some others of the Parish who were
Countenancers of Innovations, petitioned against in
the House of Lords and Bishops, who thereupon were
pleased to commit the Petitioner and his Partners into
the Messenger's Hands, whereby they were put to
above Forty Pounds Charge, and were afterwards
dismissed by their Lordships.
"That your Petitioner having, according to the usual
Custom, given Bond for the rendering of his Accompt touching the Churchwardenship, and having
charged the Sum of Thirteen Pounds, Nine Shillings,
and Ten Pence (which he was put unto by the Complaint of the said Mr. Nashe and the rest of the Petitioners), in his Accompt given to the Parish; the said Mr.
Nash, having gotten into his Hands the said Bond, refuseth to deliver the same out of his Hands; threatening to put the same in Suit, although he knoweth that
the Accompt of your Petitioner hath been audited by
honest Men of the Parish (who have approved thereof, and declared the Parish to be Four Pounds, Ten
Shillings, indebted to your Petitioner), and confirmed
by divers Justices of the Peace in the Borough of
Southwarke.
"The Premises considered, your Petitioner most
humbly prayeth your Honours, to order the
said Mr. Nash to deliver the said Bond to your
Petitioner, or the Churchwardens of the
Parish now being; and that the Charge which
your Petitioner and his Partners were put unto
for removing of the said Rails may be borne
by the said Mr. Nashe and the rest of the Petitioners of the Parish who were Causers of
the Trouble and Charge in the Premises.
"And your Petitioner, as in Duty bound,
shall pray, &c.
