THe Church-Orders for Prayers being first observed as in former times, It might be desired, that by the Government of the City there he appointed six or four Doctors at least, who may apply themselves
to the Cure of the Infected; and that these Doctors be Stripendiaries to the City for their lives; and that to each Doctor there he assigned two Apothecaries and three Chrirurgions, who are also to be stipended by the City; that so due and true care may be taken in all things, that the People pe∣rish not without help, and that the Infecti∣on spread not, while none take particular care to resist it, as in Paris, Venice, and Pa∣dua, and many other Cities.
And if any Doctor, Apothecary, or Chi∣rurgion stipended by the City, shall happen to die in the service of the Attendance of the Plague, then their Widows surviving shall have their Pensions during their lives.
