Fortnight after the said Remembrancer shall have made
his Report of such Taxation, and also upon the Appellant Benson's giving Security in the said Court of Exchequer, in such Manner as that Court shall direct, to

an Order to take him into Custody, he immediately
surrendered himself to the said Serjeant on the 8th of

Country, he had made his Submission to him by Letter;" and praying, "That he may appear at the Bar
of this House, and submit himself to their Lordships
Pleasure:"
It is Ordered, That the Petitioner be immediately
brought to the Bar, in order to his Discharge.
Jeake discharged.
Accordingly, the Petitioner was brought to the Bar,

Pleasure, that they attend Him immediately, in this
House."
Who being come, with their Speaker;
He, after a short Introduction in relation to the Money

them to the Table; where the Clerk of the Crown
