2._o that_o the_o aforesaid_a french_a commissioner_n and_o the_o minister_n and_o churchwarden_n or_o elder_n as_o they_o call_v they_o of_o the_o french_a church_n in_o the_o savoy_n or_o of_o the_o

great_a number_n of_o poor_a refuge_n have_v be_v see_v in_o england_n 3._o that_o the_o aforesaid_a french_a commissioner_n minister_n and_o churchwarden_n of_o the_o aforesaid_a two_o church_n very_o often_o and_o at_o least_o during_o the_o space_n of_o ten_o year_n have_v receive_v great_a sum_n of_o money_n arise_v from_o a_o great_a many_o legacy_n the_o most_o part_n of_o they_o make_v by_o some_o english_a pious_a person_n and_o some_o of_o they_o by_o some_o french_a to_o be_v distribute_v in_o a_o very_a short_a time_n after_o their_o decease_n to_o the_o say_v poor_a refuges_n

refuges_n to_o relieve_v they_o in_o their_o urgent_a necessity_n and_o comfort_v they_o in_o their_o trouble_n that_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o upon_o the_o say_v royal_a bounty_n the_o say_v french_a commissioner_n during_o the_o space_n of_o the_o many_o year_n aforesaid_a be_v able_a to_o supply_v all_o the_o want_n of_o the_o say_v poor_a refuge_n if_o they_o have_v very_o well_o

they_o in_o trading_n and_o traffic_n 5._o that_o the_o aforesaid_a french_a commissioner_n be_v public_o accuse_v by_o some_o of_o the_o say_v french_a refuge_n poor_a gentleman_n minister_n and_o other_o for_o have_v embezzelled_a or_o misemployed_n a_o considerable_a sum_n of_o the_o aforesaid_a twelve_o thousand_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la and_o that_o the_o say_v french_a commissioner_n have_v do_v their_o utmost_a endeavour_n to_o secure_v themselves_o from_o the_o say_a accusation_n or_o rather_o that_o their_o accuser_n shall_v be_v silent_a and_o desist_v from_o their_o accusation_n and_o for_o all_o that_o the_o say_v french_a commissioner_n have_v let_v neither_o the_o public_a nor_o their_o accuser_n know_v their_o innocence_n in_o all_o its_o circumstance_n and_o in_o keep_v the_o formality_n of_o justice_n although_o they_o be_v bind_v so_o to_o do_v for_o the_o secure_n of_o their_o own_o reputation_n 6._o that_o the_o aforesaid_a french_a commissioner_n have_v receive_v some_o considerable_a sum_n of_o money_n by_o the_o way_n of_o many_o subscription_n and_o private_a collection_n make_v in_o the_o city_n of_o london_n and_o its_o suburb_n for_o the_o aforesaid_a french_a refuge_n poor_a yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o at_o least_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o aforesaid_a french_a refuge_n poor_a be_v the_o more_o relieve_v by_o the_o say_a french_a commissioner_n than_o they_o be_v before_o the_o say_a subscription_n and_o private_a collection_n 7._o that_o the_o aforesaid_a french_a commissioner_n doubtless_o

imperceptible_o and_o cunning_o have_v be_v set_v up_o by_o the_o same_o commissioner_n in_o the_o suburb_n of_o the_o aforesaid_a city_n of_o london_n many_o year_n ago_o upon_o four_o account_n 1._o to_o procure_v as_o many_o charity_n as_o can_v be_v possible_a and_o to_o move_v all_o the_o charitable_a person_n who_o live_v in_o
