WHereas I have received information under the hands of some of the Justices of Peace, of the parts of K. that one A. M. the retained Servant of E. A. of your Town, for time yet to come, is put away from her said Service, unduly, and contrary to the Law of this Realm: I charge you therefore, and hereby authorize you, to convey her the said A. unto her said Ma∣ster E. A. and, if he shall not her re∣ceive, as his servant, or make any refusal, or dilatory excuses, that then you will him to come presently before me, or some other my fellows, and in Commission of the Peace for the parts, and County afore∣said, to answer as well such his refu∣sal, &c. as also why he should not pay unto our Sovereign Lord the King the

sum of five pounds, for such his unlawfull putting away of his said Servant: which if he shall refuse to do, that then, by vertue hereof, you him attach, and convey to the Goal for the said Coun∣ty, untill he shall willingly perform the same.

Another for relief of a man-servant, that is out of service.

WHereas complaint is made unto me by T. S. that he, being law∣fully retained in the service of T. H. of your Town, Husbandman, at Mi∣chaelmass was twelve-moneth, and be∣ing put away from his Service at Mi∣chaelmass last, hath been at the Statute-Sessions, and cannot provide himself of a service, being destitute of means wherewith to relieve himself; These are therefore, in his Majestie's name, strictly to charge, and command you, that presently upon the receipt hereof, you do receive the said T. S. into your Town, and see him set on work, and provided for according to the Statute, in that case made, and provided. Hereof fail you

not at your peril.

Given at S. the fourteenth day of December, in the sixth year of His Majestie's Reign, &c. 1630.
