Message from the Commons, by Mr. Secretary Cooke
and others:
Message from the House of Commons, for a Conference, touching the Petition against Recusants, &c.
That the Commons desire a further Conference, between the Committees of both Houses, about that Petition which their Lordships propounded unto them to
be presented to the King.
Answered:
Their Lordships have yielded to the Conference, with
their former Committee, at Four this Afternoon, in the
Painted Chamber.
Earl of Banbury's Precedency.
The Earl Marshal reported, That the Committee for
Privileges, etc. had considered whether the Precedency
granted to the Earl of Banbury, by the King's late Letters Patents, before other Earls of an ancienter Creation, might be prejudicial to the Rights and Inheritance
of the Peers of this Kingdom; the Consideration
whereof was referred unto them per ordinem 22 Martii.
And his Lordship shewed that the said Committee (to
inform themselves of the Rights of the Peers herein)
did peruse the Statute of 31 H. VIII, for placing and
ranking of the Lords; and they perused the Roll also
itself; and they do find the Law to be full and clear,
that all Lords are to be placed and ranked according to
the Antiquities of their Creations, as it is contained in
the said Statute; and that the said Precedency granted
to the said Earl of Banbury is directly contrary to that
Statute.
The said Earl Marshal further reported, That, whilst
the said Committee were in Debate hereof, it pleased
the King's Majesty to send a Gracious Message (by the
Earl of Dorset), shewing the Occasion of His granting
the said Precedency to the said Earl; and His Majesty's
Desire to the House, that this Earl, being old and childless, might enjoy it during his Time, and promising
never hereafter to occasion the like Dispute, etc. as is
contained in the said Message. And his Lordship signified to the House, That the said Committee do think it
fit that this Request of His Majesty be so taken into
Consideration, that He may receive Satisfaction, without Prejudice to the Peers in general, or to any Man's
Right in particular.
This Report ended, the Clerk read the King's Message, delivered to the said Committee by the Earl of
Dorset, which followeth, in hæc verba: videlicet,
Message from the King concerning it.
"His Majesty, having understood how that your
Lordships (zealous in the Preservation of your Rights
and Ranks) have made Question of a Precedency lately
granted unto the Earl of Bambury, before some other
of the like Degree, whose Patents bear a primary
Date, hath commanded me to let you know, that it
never was His Intention to innovate any Thing in that
Kind, or, by that particular Creation, to win any
Power, contrary to Law or ancient Custom in Matter
of placing any one before the other. But the Truth
is, that His Excellent Majesty, having resolved to
confer that Dignity on that Noble Gentleman at the
same Time with the other, then advanced, he, being
the First in Quality of them, was consequently to
have had the First Creation; but, being at that Time
casually forgotten, and His Majesty afterwards remembered of him, He did but assign him that Rank,
which at first was intended, without the least Thought
of injuring any in the present, or ever to do the
like in future. And to conclude, I have further in
Charge to let you know that His Majesty desires this
may pass for once in this Particular, considering how
old a Man this Lord is, and childless, so that he may
enjoy it during his Time; with this Assurance, that
His Majesty will never more occasion the like Dispute,
but allow Degrees to be marshaled according to the
Statute in that Behalf."
This Message being read, and the Act itself, made in
the Parliament of 31 H. VIII, for placing of the Lords,
being also (fn. *) read; upon full and deliberate hearing and
examining every Part of the said Act in open House,
their Lordships did adjudge and declare the said Act of
31 H. VIII, to be full and direct in every Point, to enjoin every Peer, upon new Creation, to have Place according to the Time of his Creation and Date of his
Letters Patents, and no otherwise. And every other
ancient Peer to hold his Place according to his Antiquity
and Creation, and no otherwise; unless it be in Case of
such Persons, and in such Places, as the said Act doth
particularly mention.
Order concerning the Poor, and sturdy Rogues.
Complaint was this Day made, That the Laws concerning the Poor, and the Laws concerning sturdy Rogues
and Beggars, are not duly executed in the Cities of
London and Westm. and the Places adjoining; but the
Poor are permitted to wander and beg in the Streets;
and, through the Slackness of the Officers, the sturdy
Beggars are so emboldened, that some of them carry
Truncheons in their Hands, and use insolent Behaviour
towards such as shall refuse to give them an Alms; it is
therefore Ordered, That the Lord Mayor of the City
of London, and all other His Majesty's Officers in London and Westm. and in the Places adjoining, in the
Counties of Midd. and Surrey, shall cause all the Laws,
which do either concern the Charitable Government
[ (fn. *) of the Poor] in those Places, or the Restraint and
Punishment of sturdy Rogues and Beggars, to be presently put in due Execution; and that they be careful
to restrain the Going-abroad of the Poor, and altogether repress the Insolency of those sturdy Rogues and
Beggars. This they are all to take Notice of, and to
see the same performed, as they will answer the same
at their Perils. The Lords do likewise command, That
the Streets in London and Westm. and in St. Martin'sLane near Charing-Cross, be mended and well paved.
Copies of this Order, signed by the Clerk, were sens
out accordingly.
The Earl of Clarc, the Lord Bishop of Norwich, and
the Lord Spencer, are to distribute the Money collected
for the Poor at this Fast.
