parliament_n to_o this_o mr._n francis_n say_v that_o he_o discharge_v they_o out_o of_o prison_n but_o not_o of_o their_o assessment_n but_o take_v 800_o l._n in_o part_n of_o the_o 1720_o l._n and_o the_o rest_n they_o be_v liable_a to_o still_o whereas_o by_o his_o usurp_a unlimited_a power_n he_o send_v those_o malignant_n out_o of_o the_o town_n into_o the_o enemy_n quarter_n where_o they_o fight_v against_o the_o parliament_n so_o that_o now_o we_o have_v no_o power_n to_o raise_v the_o rest_n no_o more_o than_o we_o have_v to_o get_v sir_n alexander_n carew_n again_o when_o mr._n francis_n refuse_v to_o secure_v he_o and_o let_v he_o go_v away_o when_o he_o be_v in_o plymouth_n nine_o why_o mr._n francis_n or_o any_o other_o will_v not_o suffer_v the_o 800_o l._n which_o he_o have_v upon_o assessment_n of_o mr._n kelland_n and_o the_o rest_n to_o be_v dispose_v by_o the_o commissioner_n of_o assessment_n according_a to_o the_o ordinance_n of_o parliament_n he_o show_v no_o

i_o have_v do_v all_o that_o i_o can_v to_o procure_v they_o but_o i_o believe_v mr._n francis_n do_v and_o will_v hinder_v it_o know_v that_o i_o shall_v prove_v he_o false_a thereby_o and_o it_o be_v a_o simple_a argument_n for_o he_o to_o say_v that_o i_o have_v my_o account_n because_o i_o remember_v 734_o l._n which_o be_v pay_v to_o major_a herbert_n which_o i_o remember_v the_o better_a by_o confer_v with_o my_o man_n who_o pay_v it_o and_o it_o be_v the_o great_a sum_n that_o i_o ever_o pay_v at_o one_o time_n to_o one_o man_n for_o officer_n only_o eleven_o whereas_o mr._n francis_n say_v that_o i_o and_o my_o man_n may_v have_v come_v out_o of_o exeter_n with_o the_o earl_n of_o stamford_n and_o then_o we_o have_v pass_v very_o safe_o and_o secure_a as_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o earl_n company_n do_v and_o so_o he_o infer_v that_o i_o may_v have_v bring_v my_o account_n with_o i_o i_o do_v come_v out_o with_o the_o earl_n and_o yet_o be_v rob_v by_o the_o enemy_n of_o all_o that_o i_o have_v and_o so_o be_v many_o other_o as_o be_v too_o well_o know_v three_o i_o come_v to_o mr._n francis_n most_o unchristian_a and_o false_a slander_n of_o the_o dead_a and_o absent_a most_o faithful_a man_n to_o the_o parliament_n first_o that_o worthy_a and_o ever_o to_o be_v honour_v colonel_n gold_n as_o 1._o whereas_o mr._n francis_n say_v that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o money_n due_a from_o the_o say_a colonel_n to_o the_o parliament_n all_o man_n that_o will_v speak_v truth_n know_v and_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v out_o of_o purse_n and_o stand_v engage_v many_o thousand_o pound_n for_o the_o parliament_n 2._o whereas_o mr._n francis_n say_v that_o col._n gold_n press_v the_o committee_n in_o plimonth_n and_o deputy_n lieutenant_n to_o search_v every_o man_n house_n in_o the_o town_n and_o to_o take_v from_o they_o by_o force_n all_o such_o money_n and_o plate_n as_o shall_v be_v find_v in_o their_o house_n if_o they_o will_v not_o part_v with_o it_o otherwise_o it_o will_v be_v prove_v that_o some_o well-affected_n in_o plymouth_n who_o have_v plate_n the_o soldier_n be_v like_a to_o mutiny_v for_o want_n of_o pay_n offer_v their_o plate_n to_o the_o colonel_n and_o desire_v that_o the_o rest_n who_o have_v plate_n may_v be_v entreat_v to_o part_v with_o it_o also_o so_o as_o the_o colonel_n and_o some_o of_o mr._n francis_n friend_n will_v be_v engage_v to_o pay_v the_o value_n of_o it_o which_o the_o col._n thereupon_o move_v and_o offer_v to_o be_v engage_v but_o mr._n francis_n friend_n refuse_v and_o so_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o do_v in_o it_o 3._o whereas_o he_o say_v that_o col._n gold_n owe_v mr._n kelland_n 1000_o l._n by_o bond_n and_o that_o mr._n kelland_n be_v often_o offer_v at_o dartmouth_n and_o plymouth_n that_o if_o he_o will_v deliver_v up_o the_o bond_n they_o shall_v be_v all_o free_v it_o will_v be_v prove_v by_o arthur_n vpton_n esquire_n and_o mr._n richard_n nchol_n who_o be_v here_o and_z divers_z other_o that_o mr._n kelland_n himself_o offer_v to_o deliver_v up_o that_o bond_n if_o they_o may_v have_v be_v free_v but_o it_o be_v refuse_v neither_o be_v the_o 1000_o l._n the_o colonel_n debt_n but_o borrow_v for_o the_o parliament_n for_o which_o he_o and_o other_o be_v bind_v and_o mr._n francis_n have_v 800_o l._n of_o the_o same_o money_n as_o appear_v by_o his_o own_o account_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o most_o wilful_a false_a slander_n second_o mr._n francis_n false_o accuse_v thomas_n gewen_v esquire_n as_o 1._o that_o he_o be_v indebt_v to_o the_o state_n for_o money_n which_o he_o receive_v for_o assessment_n and_o sequestration_n and_o refuse_v to_o give_v a_o account_n whereas_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o about_o october_n 1643._o mr._n francis_n and_z some_z other_o who_o he_o procure_v to_o join_v with_o he_o require_v mr._n gewen_v to_o give_v they_o a_o account_n at_o which_o time_n he_o desire_v to_o see_v by_o what_o

of_o all_o his_o receipt_n and_o disbursement_n which_o be_v examine_v and_o allow_v by_o col._n gold_n mr._n bear_v and_o mr._n champneys_n the_o parliament_n commissioner_n whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o there_o be_v 232_o l._n 19_o s._n 8_o d._n due_a to_o he_o and_o to_o manifest_v his_o desire_n to_o have_v his_o account_n take_v he_o then_o write_v up_o as_o some_o parliament_n man_n know_v to_o procure_v a_o ordinance_n for_o the_o take_n of_o his_o own_o account_n first_o and_o after_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o accomptant_n in_o plymouth_n but_o before_o it_o can_v be_v have_v the_o

letter_n be_v see_v three_o the_o like_a charge_n mr._n francis_n have_v against_o mr._n nicholas_n row_n but_o he_o be_v acquit_v thereof_o by_o the_o council_n of_o war_n in_o plymouth_n thus_o mr._n francis_n false_o accuse_v the_o best-affected_n to_o the_o parliament_n but_o when_o himself_o be_v tell_v by_o his_o friend_n mr._n will_n a_o godly_a minister_n in_o plymouth_n that_o it_o

without_o any_o more_o abatement_n who_o after_o be_v take_v and_o bring_v to_o plymouth_n mr._n francis_n refuse_v to_o join_v with_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o commissioner_n in_o commit_v of_o they_o

seven_o or_o nine_o at_o the_o most_o who_o join_v with_o captain_n hancock_n and_o beside_o the_o assistance_n which_o mr._n francis_n promise_v he_o be_v not_o perform_v as_o by_o the_o say_a
