Actions, and who might justly by your Majesties proclamation
have continued in authority and done your Majesty good ser-
vice. And those Delegates in that manner convened (being
part or most of them factious persons of no comendable life
and conversation) have arbitarily decreed and ordained many
things to the inconvenience of your Majesty's People, placed
the Militia of severall Counties in the hands of unworthy and
infamous persons, and the better to make their decrees to be
observed, many of the said Delegates have procured them-
selves to be put in judicial places to the terror of your Maj-
esties more peaceable subjects. From the dangers and appre-
hensions whereof, We your Majesties most loyal, dutiful and
protestant Subjects in these our Addresses humbly crave by
your Princely care and prudence to be freed and enlarged,
and that the Government together with your Majesties favour
and a lasting Settlement may be again restored to the Right
Hon^ble Lord Baltemore which will make him and us happy, and
give us new occasion to bless God, and pray for your Maj^ties
life and happy Reign.
