Bennett and Dormer, to have Writings out of the Court of Wards.
Upon reading the Petition of Georg Bennett Esquire,
late His Majesty's Ward, and of Euseby Dormer and
Susan his Wife, Sister to the said Ward; shewing,
"That the Evidences, Deeds, Leases, and Writings,
which did concern their Estates in their Minority,
were, upon Information by Order of the Court of
Wards, in Easter Term, in the 14 Year of Car'l.
brought into the Court, and have ever since there
been kept; but the Petitioners having Occasion,
by Suits in Law, to produce their said Writings
for the Maintenance of their several Rights, and Recovery of other Rights and Debts due unto them,
cannot, for Want of the said Writings, recover their
respective Estates, but are in Danger to lose a great
Part thereof:"
It is Ordered, by the Lords in Parliament assembled, That Mr. Hugh Awdley, and the Officers of the
late Court of Wards in whose Custody the said Writings are, be hereby authorized and required to deliver
to the Petitioners all such Writings, Evidences, Deeds,
and Papers, as do belong unto them and brought into
that Court by former Order; and this to be a sufficient
Discharge for so doing.
Adjourn.
House adjourned till Monday Morning, at 10a.
