The case of the present afflicted clergy in Scotland truly represented to which is added for probation the attestation of many unexceptionable witnesses to every particular, and all the publick acts and proclamations of the convention and Parliament relating to the clergy / by a lover of the church and his country.

This Letter sent from Dundee the Great, to the Convention, will some∣what serve to discover the humour of the Times, and the impartial Iustice of that Convention, the Rabble and Wild-hill Men went together in Arms in formidable Multitudes both in the Country and City, and the Thanks of the Convention was made to them for their good Services; they affronted the Viscount of Dundee daily upon the Streets, and sometimes on the Night attempted to Murder him in his House; all which was made evident to the Convention, and no notice taken of it; but because my Lord Dundee and some other Gentlemen, not willing to lye longer under those Dangers, retired to their Country-houses only with such a Guard as was sufficient to secure them from the Violence of the Rabble, which the Convention it self allowed to Noble-men and Gentlemen when they travelled on the Road; upon this account he was attainted of High Treason, and a Herauld and Trumpeter sent to Summon him upon that account to appear and answer for his Life and Fortune; by their own Messengers he sent back to them the preceding Letter, and by the Tennor of it, I leave the World to judge who they were that first begun the War in Scotland, which is not ended there yet, nor like to do in haste, and hath cost the Nation so much Blood and Treasure since.
