HAving so often represented by Papers and now by word to the Honourable Houses the extreame necessities of our Armies in England and Ireland We shall not trouble them with unnecessary repetition but onely mention those desires which require their very speedy consideration 1 We desire that for easing the Countrey of their great pressures and preventing many dangerous inconveniences the quarters of the Scottish Army in the North of this Kingdome may be enlarged and a considrable supply of money dispatched unto them 2 That money Provisions and ammunition may be sent to the Scottish army in Ireland and the same care taken in providing for them as for other forces imployed in that kingdome 3 That the 5000 Armes long since promised and in an Ordinance of both Houses of the 26 of August 1645 referred to the care of the Committee sitting at Habberdashers-hall may be speedily provided and that the honourable Houses will be pleased to grant power to that Committee to contract and make payment as well as to treat for furnishing of these Armes by reason of which defect in the Ordinance the sending of these Armes hath been hitherto retarded 4 That to prevent the further invasion of the Kingdome of Scotland by the Irish Rebels ships may be presently sent to attend the coasts betwixt Scotland and Ireland and the Commanders of these ships authorised with such instructions as are agreeable to the Treaties between the Kingdomes 5 That the Honourable Houses will be pleased to send Commissioners to joyne with the Committee of Estates residing with the Scottish Army who may be witnesses as of their other proceedings so of their earnest desires and reall endeavours with the King for giving speedy and full satisfaction to both Kingdoms And it is also our earnest request that these Commissioners may have power to Treat and agree with the Committee of Estates concerning the stating of the accompts and setling any differences that may arise thereupon And further to Treat and agree upon Overtures estimated Mediums or expedients for the speedy setling therereof which we are confident may be done in a very few dayes and either finally to conclude them or represent them to both Houses whereby withall possible expedition upon the setling of the Propositions and accompts such course may be taken as all Armes may be disbanded the Kingdoms eased of their heavy pressures and insupportable burthens that so all things being setled in a brotherly way we and our posterity may after so unhappy and troublesome a War enjoy a quiet and blessed Peace 25.
