"Right Honourable,
Letter to Lord Brook from Mr. Barker, about the E. of Northampton putting in Execution the Commission of Array for Warwickshire.
"This Saturday, about Eleven of the Clock in the
Morning, there came Intelligence to the Mayor and
Aldermen of the City of Coventry, that the Earl of
North'ton was come to the said City: The Mayor
desired Three of the Aldermen to visit the Earl of
North'ton, as Recorder of that City; and the Earl
certified these Three Gentlemen, that he came from
Yorke, from the King, and brought with him a Proclamation from His Majesty, which he affirmed was
sealed about Three of the Clock in the Afternoon
upon Thursday last; which Proclamation was directed
to all His loving Subjects within the Kingdom of
England and Dominion of Wales, to authorize all His
Majesty's said Subjects to obey the Commission of
Array (which Commission, his Lordship informed,
was warranted per divers Statute Laws yet unrepealed):
At that Instant, he requested the said Aldermen to
acquaint the Mayor, that he would meet the Mayor
and Aldermen at the Council House of that City;
and there he would declare His Majesty's Mind to
them: At the Time appointed, the Earl came, and
certified the Mayor and Aldermen, that he had
received a Commission of Array from His Majesty,
and would put it speedily in Execution, in the County
of Warwick, and City and County of Coventry. His
Lordship, being desired that his Commission might be
viewed, answered: It was not finished at his coming
from Yorke, but he should receive it from thence
speedily. I answered his Lordship, That I was a
Member of the House of Commons, and sent from
the Parliament to see the Ordinance of both Houses
concerning the Militia put in Execution, and, according
to the Trust reposed in me, would oppose the said
Commission of Array, or any other Power that should
be employed to disturb the Pursuance of the said
Ordinance of the Militia; and further acquainted
his Lordship, That both the Houses of Parliament had
voted the Commission of Array illegal, and that it
was one of the greatest Oppressions to the Subject that
ever was.
"After the said Earl was gone from this City, the
Sheriffs of the said City and County came, and certified me, that they would serve the King and Parliament, and observe the Ordinances of both Houses
concerning the Militia, with their Lives and Fortunes,
according to their late Protestation.
"And they humbly desire to receive Resolution from
the Parliament, what Course they should take in case
His Majesty should send any Warrant to attach the
said Sheriffs, or any other Persons that refuse to
assist the said Earl of North'ton in his Execution of
the Commission of Array.
"My humble Request unto your good Lordship is,
that you would be pleased to bring such Instructions
with you, that may tend to the Advancement of the
Public Service, and Suppression of those that do not
favour the Business of the Militia.
"The Earl of North'ton made known, that the
Mayor, with some others, was joined with him in the
Commission.
"And I am persuaded they will shew Readiness in
obeying that Commission (the Mayor refusing to accept of your Lordship's Deputation for the Militia),
if they be not prevented by the Wisdom of the Parliament.
"Since my coming down, I find that divers of the
Inhabitants of this City are willing to observe the
Ordinance of the Militia, and, in Pursuance thereof,
have furnished themselves with Arms; so, with my
Service to you remembered, I humbly take Leave,
and rest,
"At your Lordship's Command,
Coventry, June 25th, 1642.
"John Barker."
Instructions for Sir Peter Wentworth, Mr. Wm.
Purefey, Mr. Godferie Bosevile, and Mr. John
Barker, Members of the House of Commons, and Committees to be sent into Warwickshire, and City and County of Coventry,
and to the rest of the Deputy Lieutenants of
that County, and City and County, for the
Preservation of the same.
Instructions for the Committee going into Warwickshire.
"Whereas it doth appear to the Lords and Commons now assembled in Parliament, that the King,
seduced by wicked Counsels, intends to make War
against His Parliament; and for that it is not improbable that, under Colour of raising a Guard for His
Majesty's Person, or some other Pretence, the Knights,
Gentlemen, Freeholders, and Inhabitants of the County of Warwick, and the City and County of Coventry,
may be drawn together: Therefore you, and every
of you, shall take special Care that the Ordinance
concerning the Militia be forthwith put in Execution
through the County, the City and County of the City,
respectively, according to the Tenor of the said Ordinance; and the Sheriffs, and all other Officers and
Subjects, are hereby enjoined to assist you, and every
of you, therein: And if any Person whatsoever shall
levy, or endeavour to levy, any Soldiers, or to draw
or keep together the Trained Bands, or other armed
Forces, of the said County, or City and County of
the City, or any other Forces, by Colour or Pretence
of any Commission or Warrant from His Majesty,
under the Great Seal, or otherwise, without Order
or Consent of both Houses of Parliament, you, and
every of you, shall, in the Name, and by the Authority, of both the said Houses, require and command
all Persons to forbear the Execution of such Commission or Warrant, and the same to be delivered up
unto you, or any of you, to be sent to the Speaker
of the House of Commons; and you, and every of
you, Deputy Lieutenants, are hereby required to draw
together such of the Trained Bands, and other Forces,
of the said County and City, and County of the City,
respectively, as shall be expedient for the suppressing
of all such Assemblies, and for the apprehending of
all or any Person or Persons as shall, after Admonition
and Command by you, or any of you, made unto
them, to forbear the Execution of any such Commission or Warrant, or the calling or gathering or keeping together of any such Forces or Assemblies, still
persist in doing the same, as likewise such disaffected
Persons as shall be found raising any Parties or Factions against the Parliament, to be sent up hither, to
answer such their Offences, as to Law and Justice shall
appertain.
"And you, and every of you, the abovesaid Members of the House of Commons, and every of you,
shall, in the Name of the Lords and Commons, require
and command the Sheriffs of the County of Warwick,
and of the City and County of the City of Coventry,
to publish throughout the said County, and City and
County of the City, respectively, the Declarations formerly published by both Houses of Parliament.
"You, and every of you, shall further take Care,
that such Resolutions and Orders of both Houses as
have been, or shall be, delivered or sent down unto
you, or any of you, be put in Execution; and shall
require the Sheriff, Justices of Peace, and all others
His Majesty's Officers and Subjects, to be aiding and
assisting unto you, and every of you, for that Purpose.
"You shall declare unto all Men, that it hath ever
been, and still shall be, the Care and Endeavour of
the Parliament, to provide for His Majesty's Safety;
and that they do not, nor ever did, know of any Evil
intended to His Majesty's Person, which might move
Him to require any extraordinary armed Guard; that
His greatest Safety is in the Affection and Fidelity of
His Subjects, and in the Advice and Counsel of His
Parliament, and His greatest Danger in withdrawing
Himself from them; so that, under Colour of doing
Him Service, disaffected and malignant Persons, obnoxious for their bad Counsels to the Justice of the
Law, labour to raise a Party against the Parliament,
which at the last may break out into open Rebellion
and Civil War, to the Destruction both of King and
Kingdom, if the same be not prevented by the Wisdom of Parliament.
"You the said Members of the House of Commons,
and every of you, shall endeavour to clear the Proceedings of Parliament from all Imputations and
Aspersions, and shall, from Time to Time, certify us
of all Things which you conceive necessary for the
present Service: And that we may have a speedy Account of it, and that our Directions to you, as well as
your Advertisements to us, may have a clear and ready
Passage, you, and every of you, shall lay a strict Charge
upon all Post-masters, that they do not suffer any Letters, or other Dispatches, to or from the Parliament,
to be intercepted or stayed; and if any shall presume
to make such Stay of those Dispatches, you, and every
of you, shall direct the Post-masters to repair to the
Justices of Peace, Constables, and all other Officers,
for their Aids and Assistance, who are hereby required
to take special Care that there may be no such Interruption.
"You, and every of you, shall take Care that none
of the Recusants Arms, or other Ammunition of the
said County, shall be carried or taken out of the
County, or City and County of the City, respectively,
upon any Pretence or Command whatsoever, without Warrant from both Houses of Parliament; and
you, and every of you, shall give Order and Direction
to the Sheriff, Justices of Peace, and other Officers,
to require and command all the Popish Recusants, in
that County, and City and County of Coventry, to
confine themselves to their Dwellings, according to
the Statute in that Case provided; and, if any such
Recusant shall be found to transgress therein, you, and
every of you, shall cause the Justices of the Peace
forthwith to bind them to their good Behaviour;
and, upon Refusal or Neglect to give Security accordingly, to commit them to Prison, and further to
proceed against them according to the Law.
"You shall also, in the Name of both Houses of
Parliament, require all such Persons who have in their
Custody any Part of the Public Magazines of the said
County, or City and County of the said City, respectively, to deliver the same unto you, or some of you,
to be employed for the Defence of the said County,
and City and County of the said City.
"And you, and every of you, are likewise to give
Charge, from both Houses of Parliament, to all Captains, Lieutenants, and other Officers of the Militia,
that they be observant to such Directions as they shall
from Time to Time receive from the Lieutenant of
the said County, or City and County of the said City,
or his Deputies, or any of them, for due Performance
of any the Commands of the said Houses.
"You, and every of you, shall resist and repel, and
are hereby authorized to resist and repel, by the
Power of the said County, and City and County of
Coventry, and by all other Ways and Means, all such
Force and Violence as shall be raised or brought to
any Person or Persons, to the Hindrance or Disturbance of this present Service, or for the arresting or
seizing of the Persons of you, or any of you, or of
any other which shall be employed in the Performance of the Ordinances, Instructions, and Commands of both Houses of Parliament, for any Thing
done in Execution thereof; and the Sheriff and
Justices of Peace of the said County, and City and
County of the said City, respectively, and all other
Officers and Subjects, are hereby enjoined to be aiding and assisting to you, and every of you, for the
better and more speedy Execution of the Premises.
"And the Lords and Commons do hereby Declare,
That they will protect, defend, and assist, all Manner
of Persons, for such Actions as they shall perform in
Pursuance of these Instructions, and other Orders and
Commands of the said Houses of Parliament."
