The King's Commissioners Answer thereunto. 17. Feb.

[ CXIV] VVE had great reason to desire a perfect and full Answer from your Lordships to our first and second Papers, delivered by us to your Lordships on the 15. of Feb. and we desire your Lordships to consider how difficult a thing it is for us, to give your Lordships a satisfactory Answer to your Propositions as they relate to either or both Kingdoms, or to the Power of the Commissioners of both Kingdoms, as they are to be a joynt Committee to hear and determine all differences, according to Instru∣ctions from both Houses of Parliament of England, or the Estates of the Parliament of Scotland, before your Lordships are pleased to inform us, whether you intend the Com∣missioners of Scotland shall have any Power or Authority in the settling all Forces by Sea and Land in this Kingdom, and what Authority they shall have; and whether the Ad∣vice, Instructions, or Orders of the Estates of the Parliament of Scotland, shall have any influence upon the affairs of this Kingdom, or the Commissioners to be named ac∣cording to those Propositions, otherwise than as the said Advice, Instructions, or Or∣ders shall be approved and confirmed by the two Houses of Parliament of England; and what Jurisdiction you intend the Commissioners shall have who are to determine all dif∣ferences that may occasion the breach of the Articles of the Peace; and by what Law or Rule they shall proceed, try and judge, in the hearing and determining the same. In all which particulars we are very sorry that we can receive no Answers from your Lord∣ships, for want whereof we may fail in giving your Lordships so satisfactory Answers to your Propositions, as otherwise we might be enabled to do.
