To the Keeper of His Majestie's Gaol in A. &c. Greeting.

K. ss▪ FOrasmuch as A. B. of C. &c. Black∣smith, hath before us found sufficient Mainprise to appear before the Justices of Gaol∣delivery at the next general Gaol-delivery to be holden in the said County, there to answer to such things as shall be then on the behalf of our said Sovereign Lord objected against him, and namely, to the feloniously taking of two Sheep, (for the suspicion whereof he was ta∣ken and committed to your said Goal.) We command you on the behalf of our said Sove∣reign Lord, that if the said A. B. do remain in your said Gaol for the said cause, and for none other, then you forbear to grieve or de∣tain him any longer, but that you deliver him thence, and suffer him to go at large, and that upon the pain will fall thereon. Given un∣der our hands and seals, &c.
