Order of the Master of the Rolls. Thursday the 29th of June, 1654. Concerning Records to be brought into the Chappel of the Rolls.

FOr as much as it appears to me, and also upon several Complaints made to me, and diligent enquiry thereupon, that many inconveniences arise to the people of this Nation, for that you the respective Officers under my charge, do neglect to return and bring into the Chappel of the Rolls, all Inrolments, Inquisitions and Records in your seve∣ral charges; These are therefore to will and require you, and every of you, and I do hereby order you the several Clerks, the Clerk of the Inrolments,

and the Clerk of the Petty-Bag to bring into the Chappel of the Rolls all such Inrolments, Inquisitions and Re∣cords as have been usually brought in∣to the Chappel of the Rolls, and are not yet brought, and are now in any of your respective Custodies, together with the several and respective Callen∣ders thereof, fairly written and deli∣vered to my self, at or before the first day of August 1654. that thereby such use may be made of them, as shall be for the most advantage and ease of the people, and the preservation thereof more immediately under my view: and if any of the said Officers shall neglect their duty herein, such course shall be forthwith taken for their disobedience, by sequestration of their several and re∣spective Offices, or otherwise as shall appertain to Justice, and according to former Presidents in like cases. And it is further ordered, That this Order, or a true Copy thereof be forthwith deli∣vered to every one of the Officers afore∣said whom it may concern: And also that this Order be forthwith fairly written and fixed in every Office, that no excuse may be made for want of no∣tice.

William Lenthall.
