Numb. ●6 THE Parliamentary Intelligencer COMPRISING The Sum of Forraign Intelligence with the Affairs now in Agitation in England Scotland and Ireland For Information of the People Published by Order of the late Council of State From Monday June 18. to Monday June 25. 1660. THere was lately an Adverrisement in some Books published by the Office of Intelligence of a misreport scandalous and false as he calls it concerning the death of Major Aberin who as he saith died a natural death and lived a pious life which was well known to all that lived about him and confirmed by many persons of Quality that were present with him when he died My Correspondent in Scotland writing none of the best hand and it being a Scotch name a thing I am not very well acquainted with in haste I mistook Aberin for Abernethy I have inquired of several Scotch Gentlemen in Town whether there were any Major Aberin in Scotland whom my mistake might have injured but I cannot hear of any of that name and shall willingly confess it an Error if the Newsmonger can in his next acquaint me of any one that know such a man in Scotland though he pretends he was well known by all about him to be a man of a pious Life and that it was confirmed by many persons of quality who were present that he died a natural death When a Friend shewed me in his Book this Advertisement I read some few lines further of the Votes of the House of Saturday last in his Book called the Publick Intelligencer wherein he tells you first that Col. Fleetwood late Lieutenant General had rendered himself to the Speaker whereas it was Col. George Fleetwood one of the Kings Triers never known by that Title of Lieutenant General In the second Vote he makes that the House ordered the Books of Mr. John Goodwin and Mr. John Milton to be burnt whenas they only resolved that his Majesty should be desired to order it In the third Vote That all the woods of the Kings and Queens Lands that were not really sold should be seised upon whereas all Wood and Timber felled off the said Lands are to remain and continue upon the said Lands without farther disposal till the Parliament shall give a farther order therein In his fourth Vote he puts Cheney for Chancery I have no time to amend all his faults it would swell my Book too much but by this you may judge the rest I shall only give a further account of some faults which I am desired by some Members of the House to take notice of That at a Committee of the Elections on Saturday June 16. he seems to insinuate some unhandsome carriage of Mr. Richard Ballice and that they resolved the Petition concerning the choice at Evesham to be vexatious whenas his demeanors there was observed to be no other then civil and no such resolve made concerning the Petition I am likewise to take notice of an antient List of the Privy Council taken out of an old Book of ours which he in his last Publick Intelligencer put out as ●●ist now excluding out of it the Right Honorable 〈…〉 Howard to the no small inju●y of that Noble Person whom the King hath been ple●sed so highly to honor Munday June 25.
