XIII. From OXFORD, Dec. 5. MDC XLV. For a safe Conduct for certain Persons of Honour, to be sent with Propositions of Peace.

For the Speaker of the House of Peers pro tempore.

CHARLES R.

HIS Majesty being still deeply sensible of the continuation of this bloody and unnatural War, cannot think Himself discharg'd of the duty He ows to God, or the affection and regard He hath to the preservation of His People, without the constant application of His earnest endeavours to find some Expedient for the speedy ending of these unhappy Distractions, if that may be; doth therefore desire, That a safe Conduct may be forthwith sent for the Duke of Richmond, the Earl of Southamp∣ton, John Ashburnham and Jeffry Palmer Esquires, and their attendants, with Coaches, Horses, and other accommodations for their journey to Westminster, during their stay there, and return when they shall think fit; whom His Majesty intends to send to the Lords and Commons assembled in the Parliament of England at Westminster, and the Commissioners of the Parliament of Scotland, furnished with such Propositions as His Majesty is confident will be the foundation of a happy and well-grounded Peace.

Given at our Court at Oxford, 5. December 1645.
