CHAP. XI. The General Deputies make Report of their Audience; and the King's Answer to that Letter.

1. THE fourth Day of October, the Lords General Deputies being returned, and making Report of their kind Reception from the Ministers of State, who also informed them that his Majesty had granted sixteen thousand Livers for defraying the Expences of this Synod, and that he permitted Monsieur Bouteroue to take his Place with the other Deputies in the Synod; and that his Majesty did judg meet that this Sy∣nod should break up of its own Accord as soon as possible it could, and that after their Departure the Cahier presented by the Sieurs Amyraud and de Villars should have a favourable Answer, and that without Delay. And the Lord Commissioner added that his Majesty expressed in his Let∣ters written to him, his singular Satisfaction in the Synod, to which he granted three Days more for the perfecting and strengthning of their re∣maining Affairs; and that they should be no sooner separated, but he would answer their Cahiers, and that in the most favourable manner, particularly in what relates unto the Maintenance of the Ministers; that the Choice of Deputi•••• was very acceptable to him, though they could not enter upon their Office till after the Separation and Departure of this Synod. Upon which, the Assembly having returned their most hearty Thanks unto the Lords Deputies aforesaid, for their singular Affection and Diligence in promoting the Weal of our Churches; They intreated the Lord Commissioner to continue his wonted good Offices unto the Churches, and by his daily Intercession for them with his Majesty, to be more and more useful and beneficial to them: And inasmuch as he was near his Majesty, and one of his Privy Council, he was earnestly intreat∣ed most humbly to petition his Majesty to add unto those Favours which he hath already vouchsafed us, the Grant also of those which we expect and wait for from his Royal Clemency and Goodness.
