Protest against the Ordinance to take off Howard's Sequestration, and clear him of his Delinquency.
"That, before the putting of this Question, Whether
the Ordinance above aforesaid shall pass, we desired,
and had, the Liberty of Protestation against it, for
these Reasons:
"1. The great Necessity of the Kingdom at this
Time for Money is such, as all due Means are requisite to the procuring of it; and by this Ordinance
there is only Four Thousand Pounds payable, which
appears by the Place where it is consigned to be paid,
that it is only for his Brother's Wardship, no Sum
particularly being expressed therein for his Delinquency; and for that he conceived it to be a Precedent of ill Consequence at this Time, that any One
who is declared by Ordinance of Parliament a Delinquent, as by this very Ordinance he conceives Mr.
Howard is, should at this Time be discharged without
paying or expressing a Sum particularly for such Discharge.

"Whereas, by an Ordinance of both Houses of Parliament, of 20 Martii, 1645, Ten Thousand Pounds,
with Interest after the Rate of Eight Pounds per
Centum, for the Service of the Forces designed for
North-Wales under the Command of Colonel Mitton,
is ordained to be paid in Course, out of the Receipts
of the Excise, but no Provision is thereby made for
the Payment of the said Interest at the End of every
Six Months; by reason whereof, Lenders are much
discouraged from advancing Money upon the Credit
of the said Ordinance, by Means whereof the said
Service is much retarded: It is therefore Ordained,
by the Lords and Commons in Parliament assembled,
That every Person and Persons, their Executors, Administrators, and Assigns, who shall lend or advance
any Sums of Money upon the Credit of the said Ordinance, shall be paid their respective Interests for
the same, after the Rates of Eight Pounds per Centum, out of the Receipts of the Excise, to come in
upon the Ordinance of 11th September, 1643, at the
End of every Six Months from the Time of such
their lending or advancing, until the said Ten Thousand Pounds become due in Course; and that then
they, and every of them, shall be paid their Principal
Monies which they shall so lend or advance, together with such remaining Interest, after the Rate
aforesaid, as shall be then due for the same, out of
the said Receipts of the Excise so to come in as aforesaid; and the Commissioners of Excise for the Time
being are hereby authorized and enjoined to make
Payment of the said Principal and Interest to such
Lenders and Advancers, their Executors, Administrators, and Assigns, accordingly, whose Receipt
or Receipts for the same shall be a sufficient Discharge to the said Commissioners of Excise for the
Time being, and every of them respectively, for
Payment of the said Principal and Interest accordingly."
