REX Vic. Essex. salutem. Monstravit nobis H. London. Episcopus, quod cum fructus Ecclesiae de Finchingfend suae Diocesis nuper ob certas causas sequestras∣set,* 1.1 quidam maligno spiritu ducti vi & armis dictum sequestrum temerè violarunt, fructus sequestratos ibidem vendendo, dissiipando & consumendo in Dei & Ecclesiae contemptum & scandalum manifestum.

Burgesses of Newcastle upon Tyne out of the Town, contrary to ancient cu∣stome, to remote places, to appear before them at their Courts and Visitations from day to day, to their great expence, impoverishing, undoing, and enfor∣cing them by Ecclesiastical processe and censures to take Oathes at their pleasure to answer to, and inquire upon Articles against their wills, otherwise then they were accustomed, to their great detriment, and against his royal Crown and dignity, the King upon complaint thereof made, issued this memorable severe Prohibition to them to forbear such proceedings and Oaths for the future.
