touching Ship-money and for the vacating of all Records and Processe concerning the same WHereas divers Writs of late time issued under the great Seal of England commonly called Shipwrits for the charging of the Ports Towns Cities Boroughs and Counties of this Realm respectively to provide and furnish certain Ships for His Majesties service And whereas upon the execution of the same Writs and Returns of Certioraries thereupon made and the sending the same by Mittimus into the Court of Exchequer Processe hath been thence made against sundry persons pretended to be charged by way of Contribution for the making up of certain sums assessed for the providing of the said Ships and in especiall in Easter Term in the thirteenth yeer of the Reign of our Soveraign Lord the King that now is a Writ of Scire facias was awarded out of the Court of Exchequer to the then Sheriffe of Buckingham-shire against John Hampden Esquire to appear and shew cause why he should not be charged with a certain sum so assessed upon him upon whose appearance and demurrer to the proceedings therein the Barons of the Exchequer adjourned the same case into the Exchequer-chamber where it was solemnly argued divers dayes and at length it was there agreed by the greater part of all the Iustices of the Courts of Kings Bench and Common Pleas and of the Barons of the Exchequer there assembled that the said John Hampden should be charged with the said sum so as aforesaid assessed on him The main grounds and reasons of the said Iustices and Barons which so agreed being that when the good and safety of the Kingdom in generall is concerned and the whole Kingdom in danger the King might by Writ under the Great Seal of England command all the Subjects of this his Kingdom at their charge to provide and furnish such number of Ships with Men Victuals and Munition and for such time as the King should think sit for the defence and safegard of the Kingdom from such danger and perill and that by Law the King might compell the doing thereof in case of refusall or refractarinesse and that the King is the sole Iudge both of the danger and when and how the same is to be prevented and avoided according to which grounds and reasons all the Iustices of the said Courts of Kings Bench and Common Pleas and the said Barons of the Exchequer having been formerly consulted with by His Majesties command had set their hands to an extrajudiciall opinion expressed to the same purpose which opinion with their names thereunto was also by His Majesties command inrolled in the Courts of Chancery Kings Bench Common Pleas and Exchequer and likewise entred among the Remembrances of the Court of Star-Chamber and according to the said agreement of the said Iustices and Barons Iudgement was given by the Barons of the Exchequer That the said John Hampden should be charged with the said sum so assessed on him And whereas some other Actions and Proces depend and have depended in the said Court of Exchequer and in some other Courts against other persons for the like kinde of charge grounded upon the said Writs commonly called Shipwrits all which Writs and proceedings as aforesaid were utterly against the Law of the Land Be it therefore declared and Enacted by the Kings most Excellent Majesty and the Lords and Commons in this present Parliament assembled and by the Authoritie of the same That the said charge imposed upon the Subject for the providing and furnishing of Ships commonly called Ship-money and the said extrajudiciall opinion of the said Iustices and Barons and the said Writs and every of them and the said agreement or opinion of the greater part of the said Iustices and Barons and the said Iudgement given against the said John Hampden were and are contrary to and
