Commissioners might be appointed to settle the Points
mentioned in the said Memorandum, and that we
are in Hopes that it will be granted speedily (as by
these we beseech you again for the furthering of the
same). We further intreat you to move the Right
Honourable House of Peers, to grant an Order, that
the putting to Sale of any of the said Tiger's Goods,
or of any of the other Ships and Goods mentioned in
our said Memorandum, or of any other since taken,
may be forborn, until we meet with the Commissioners it shall please the Parliament to appoint for the
settling of all Differences about the said Ships and
Goods; and that it will please you to send us a speedy
Answer of what shall be resolved in the said House
about the Premises.
