and_o therefore_o be_v advise_v he_o ought_v not_o to_o make_v any_o answer_n to_o such_o a_o presentment_n until_o it_o do_v appear_v to_o be_v according_a to_o law_n 2._o and_o the_o say_v james_n jones_n say_v that_o by_o no_o law_n of_o this_o realm_n any_o layman_n can_v be_v compel_v or_o oblige_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n more_o or_o often_o than_o three_o time_n in_o the_o year_n

james_n jones_n say_v he_o be_v a_o layman_n and_o do_v not_o know_v of_o any_o law_n that_o do_v abridge_v he_o of_o that_o liberty_n or_o oblige_v he_o to_o receive_v it_o often_o or_o otherwise_o

for_o any_o offence_n but_o such_o as_o do_v or_o shall_v arise_v since_o easter_n last_o and_o for_o that_o there_o be_v abundant_o sufficient_a time_n for_o he_o the_o say_v james_n jones_n to_o

what_o before_o he_o have_v already_o insist_v on_o and_o pray_v as_o before_o he_o have_v already_o pray_v james_n jones_n a_o addition_n to_o the_o supplement_n and_o furthermore_o the_o say_a jones_n say_v that_o beside_o all_o that_o be_v contain_v in_o his_o plea_n and_o supplement_n to_o the_o say_a plea_n he_o have_v more_o matter_n to_o be_v argue_v in_o his_o defence_n against_o the_o aforesaid_a presentment_n to_o show_v the_o deficiency_n and_o insufficiency_n thereof_o a_o brief_a account_n of_o which_o take_v as_o follow_v 1._o he_o the_o say_v jones_n say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o what_o diocese_n the_o aforesaid_a parish_n and_o he_o as_o inhabitant_n thereof_o be_v which_o shall_v have_v be_v plain_o express_v in_o the_o say_a presentment_n 2._o the_o say_v jones_n say_v that_o he_o be_v prosecute_v for_o nonconformity_n before_o his_o majesty_n justice_n of_o the_o peace_n in_o the_o county_n of_o surrey_n and_o particular_o for_o not_o come_v to_o church_n which_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n mention_v in_o the_o churchwarden_n presentment_n and_o for_o which_o the_o say_v jones_n be_v excommunicate_v now_o for_o the_o say_v jones_n to_o be_v punish_v in_o the_o temporal_a court_n and_o in_o the_o ecclesiastical_a court_n at_z or_o about_o the_o same_o time_n seem_v be_v contrary_a to_o the_o statute_n of_o anno_fw-la primo_fw-la regni_fw-la eliz._n chap._n 2._o which_o say_v provide_v always_o and_o be_v it_o enact_v that_o whatsoever_o person_n offend_a in_o the_o premise_n shall_v for_o their_o offence_n first_o receive_v punishment_n of_o the_o ordinary_a have_v a_o testimonial_a thereof_o under_o the_o say_a ordinary_n seal_v shall_v not_o
for_o the_o same_o offence_n eftsoons_o be_v convict_v before_o the_o justice_n and_o likewise_o receive_v for_o the_o say_a offence_n punishment_n first_o by_o the_o justice_n shall_v not_o for_o the_o same_o offence_n eftsoons_o receive_v punishment_n of_o the_o ordinary_a any_o thing_n contain_v in_o this_o act_n to_o the_o contrary_a notwithstanding_o 3._o and_o he_o the_o say_v jones_n say_v that_o the_o churchwarden_n do_v not_o in_o their_o presentment_n allege_v against_o he_o that_o he_o have_v not_o any_o lawful_a or_o reasonable_a cause_n to_o show_v why_o he_o have_v not_o be_v at_o church_n or_o sacrament_n of_o so_o long_a a_o time_n mention_v in_o the_o presentment_n see_v 1_o eliz._n cap._n 2._o paragraph_n 14._o 4._o and_o he_o the_o say_v jones_n say_v that_o whereas_o error_n in_o a_o indictment_n at_o session_n or_o assize_n or_o error_n in_o a_o mittimus_fw-la whereby_o a_o man_n be_v commit_v to_o prison_n will_v when_o legal_o plead_v overthrow_n and_o make_v void_a such_o indictment_n or_o commitment_n and_o so_o relieve_v the_o indict_v and_o commit_v person_n even_o so_o and_o much_o more_o shall_v the_o say_v jones_n by_o reason_n of_o a_o deficient_a and_o insufficient_a presentment_n be_v discharge_v from_o the_o ecclesiastical_a court_n as_o he_o pray_v in_o his_o aforesaid_a plea_n and_o supplement_n and_o therefore_o the_o say_a jones_n do_v conclude_v that_o it_o be_v better_a to_o be_v concern_v with_o the_o king_n justice_n and_o judge_n who_o sit_v by_o commission_n from_o the_o king_n in_o the_o king_n court_n of_o record_n than_o to_o be_v concern_v with_o any_o ecclesiastical_a court_n and_o such_o as_o be_v doctor_n and_o judge_n in_o the_o say_a court_n the_o say_v jones_n further_a say_v he_o hear_v no_o more_o from_o doctors-common_n till_o the_o twenty_o of_o december_n and_o then_o the_o doctor_n of_o his_o parish_n viz._n st._n bartholomew_n exchange_n do_v in_o very_o friendly_a manner_n acquaint_v the_o say_a jones_n that_o a_o excommunication_n against_o he_o be_v come_v from_o doctor_n commons_o and_o that_o the_o say_a doctor_n be_v order_v to_o publish_v the_o say_a excommunication_n next_o morning_n be_v st._n thomas_n day_n unto_o which_o the_o say_a jones_n reply_v that_o the_o ecclesiastical_a court_n have_v proceed_v illegal_o in_o go_v so_o far_o as_o a_o excommunication_n and_o demonstrate_v the_o same_o in_o two_o particular_n first_o that_o he_o the_o say_v jones_n have_v give_v a_o plea_n in_o law_n to_o that_o court_n against_o the_o aforesaid_a presentment_n and_o be_v never_o admit_v to_o be_v hear_v upon_o his_o plea_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n of_o england_n to_o have_v any_o sentence_n pass_v upon_o any_o man_n to_o his_o damage_n without_o his_o cause_n be_v legal_o hear_v and_o debate_v second_o that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o ecclesiastical_a court_n legal_o to_o excommunicate_v the_o say_a jones_n for_o not_o take_v the_o sacrament_n at_o any_o such_o time_n as_o that_o court_n shall_v at_o their_o pleasure_n appoint_v there_o be_v but_o one_o time_n of_o the_o year_n name_v for_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n viz_o easter_n the_o aforesaid_a doctor_n reply_v he_o be_v sorry_a thing_n be_v bring_v to_o such_o a_o point_n but_o he_o can_v not_o avoid_v obey_v the_o order_n of_o doctor_n commons_o and_o so_o the_o next_o day_n be_v dec._n 23._o call_v st._n thomas_n day_n the_o excommunication_n be_v publish_v in_o the_o parish_n church_n call_v st._n barth●lomew_n exchange_n and_o upon_o the_o twenty_o three_o day_n of_o the_o same_o month_n the_o say_a jones_n go_v with_o a_o witness_n with_o he_o to_o the_o register_n office_n and_o demand_v a_o copy_n of_o the_o libel_n against_o he_o but_o the_o say_v jones_n can_v not_o have_v it_o though_o he_o offer_v payment_n for_o the_o say_a libel_n and_o upon_o the_o twenty_o six_o of_o the_o same_o month_n the_o say_a jones_n take_v witness_v with_o he_o and_o demand_v a_o copy_n of_o all_o the_o proceed_n of_o the_o court_n and_o particular_o a_o copy_n of_o his_o plea_n the_o clerk_n do_v promise_v a_o copy_n of_o the_o proceed_n of_o the_o court_n but_o can_v not_o let_v he_o have_v they_o at_o that_o time_n and_o upon_o the_o thirty_o day_n of_o the_o same_o month_n the_o say_a jones_n go_v and_o a_o witness_n with_o he_o for_o the_o aforesaid_a copy_n but_o it_o be_v not_o do_v the_o say_v jones_n then_o allow_v the_o clerk_n till_o the_o next_o monday_n and_o the_o clerk_n will_v not_o promise_v to_o have_v those_o thing_n copy_v by_o that_o time_n plead_v it_o be_v holiday_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n they_o be_v not_o do_v the_o say_v jones_n reply_v that_o it_o be_v a_o strange_a thing_n to_o he_o they_o can_v not_o write_v their_o own_o proceed_n upon_o a_o holiday_n as_o well_o as_o excommunicate_v he_o upon_o a_o holiday_n the_o say_v jones_n wait_v till_o wedensday_n the_o three_o of_o january_n and_o then_o go_v with_o his_o friend_n for_o the_o aforesaid_a copy_n and_o then_o the_o clerk_n say_v that_o he_o who_o he_o have_v appoint_v to_o draw_v out_o the_o aforesaid_a copy_n be_v out_o of_o the_o way_n himself_o be_v go_v from_o the_o office_n at_o that_o time_n and_o so_o the_o say_v jones_n come_v away_o without_o what_o he_o so_o much_o

say_v jones_n go_v and_o make_v affidavit_fw-la before_o judge_n charleton_n the_o form_n of_o the_o say_v affidavit_fw-la be_v as_o follow_v james_n jones_n of_o london_n merchant-taylor_n depose_v

there_o demand_v a_o copy_n of_o his_o libel_n but_o can_v not_o obtain_v it_o though_o he_o offer_v payment_n for_o the_o same_o and_o after_o this_o upon_o the_o twenty_o three_o day_n of_o
