A80410	Unum necessarium: or, The poore mans case: being an expedient to make provision of all poore people in the Kingdome. Humbly presented to the higher powers : begging some angelicall ordinance, for the speedy abating of the prises of corne, without which, the ruine of many thousands (in humane judgment) is inevitable. In all humility propounding, that the readiest way is a suppression or regulation of innes and ale-houses, where halfe the barley is wasted in excesse : proving them by law to be all in a præmunire, and the grand concernment, that none which have been notoriously disaffected, and enemies to common honesty and civility, should sell any wine, strong ale, or beere, but others to be licensed by a committee in every county, upon recommendation of the minister, and such of the inhabitants in every parish, where need requires, that have been faithfull to the publike. Wherein there is a hue-and-cry against drunkards, as the most dangerous antinomians : and against ingrossers, to make a dearth, and cruell misers, which are the caterpillars and bane of this kingdome. / By John Cooke, of Graies Inne, barrester.	Cook, John, d. 1660.	1648 (1648)	Wing C6027; Thomason E425_1; ESTC R204550	75,106	79

11.19 and Solomans foole was wise in his owne conceit but there was pregnant proofe for the Doctor that since the Great Sicknesse at which time he first grew famous for many of the Doctors being out of Towne he did abundance of cures upon poore people which are yet living He hath cured every yeare many people of all sorts of Feavers Plague Palsies Agues Gout Consumptions Dropcies Collicks and all sorts of Diseases and his manner of practise is to take little or nothing from the poore and from the rich 2. s. or 2. s. 6. d. at the most for his advice and Phisick for he compounds all his Phisick himselfe which no ignorant man can do and buyes the best Drugg● he can get as the Drugster a man of credit testified Now the Case stands thus a man lyes desperatly sick and the Colledge Doctors give him over for a dead man a friend of his tells him that Doctor Trigg has cured many in his condition that have been as neare death as himselfe the man has a strong conceit that Doctor Trigg may help him and truly a good conceit of the Physitian is many times half the Cure if this man should recover by Gods blessing upon Doctor Triggs Phisick is it not a hard case that Doctor Trigg should pay 5. l. to the Colledge for curing this man without their Lycence will they neither give Phisick themselves nor suffer others to do it Worthy Gent. You know what offers we that were Doctor Triggs Counsell have severall times made you that if we do not prove that our Clyent hath done good to above 30000. Men Woemen and Children in and about this Citty since the yeare 1624. Hee will quit his practise without more a doe or if you can prove that ever he did hurt to any man Woman of Child by his Phisicks He will be content to be your Bondslave I know there were above 100. witnesses more then those that gave evidence which hearing that Doctor Trigg had a Tryall about his Nonsufficiency flocked in readily to testifie what Cures he had wrought upon them but the Honorable Iudge thought it needlesse to heare any more for when a weight can be carryed by foure men to what purpose is it to imploy 10. but why will he not be admitted of the Colledge It may be he thinks it a Monopoly for by the Common-Law every man may Administer Phisick that hath any skill therein and if we hurt any through Ignorance or negligence an Action upon the Case lyes against him and why are not Country mens healths and lives as precious to them as Cittizens or why may not the Butchers Cookes Bakers and Brewers being Free-Tradesmen of the City of London compell the Citizens to buy all their Victualls of them and nor to dresse it in their Houses why will not some men have the lyne of Ordination stretched over them because they conceive themselves more free without i● He sayes that those old Receits which agreed with English bodyes 500. years agoe are not so proper for these times and therefore would make no further use of the Pharmatopia then he sees reason of it but he is of Age and Abilities to answer better for himselfe for my owne part I take him to be a rationall man and of Excellent parts but in Phisick I preferre experience before reason and Authority that is if there were but two Physitions extant the one counted an Ignoramus which yet had cured 1000. men of I●evers and such dangerous diseases the other a notable Scholler and of fluent discourse that never cured 20. of all diseases I would rather Intrust my selfe with the former he was a famous Practiser in Aleppo above 25. yeares since and purchased much skill beyond Sea and of great practise and experience with whom Sir Theodore Mayerne Doctor Moore have joyned in advise a man Hospitable and charitable to the poore therefore my subject leads me to commend him he gives away as much Phisick weekly to the poore people as costs him 30 or 40. s. and which some Appothycaries would sell it may be for five times as much for I know not how it comes to passe there is more gotten by Drugs Roots Weeds and Hearbs in this City yrarely then the Bakers Brewers Butchers and many others get by their substantiall Commodities let no man think I write this for my Fee 't is the poore mans Case that I plead should he be suppressed I professe for any thing I can imagine to the contrary thousands of poore people must perish for want of meanes to recover them for where is there a man that will give his advise and Physick for nothing as this man constantly doth If any Patient tell him that he is poore and wants money he takes not a penny from him nor let any man say that it is not usuall for Councell to print their Clyents Causes for my part I know no hurt in it but so far as it concerns the poore this hard yeare I would not gladly omit any thing for their advantage extraordinary diseases must have extraordinary cures for my owne part If I thought or credibly heard that the man did practise upon mens bodies and abuse poore people I would be the first that should him and pluck his flesh in peeces but so long as that man does good in his practise every honest man should take his part for why should not that be judged a good Tree that brings forth not yearely but daily good fruit his case stands thus The Colledge Doctors have obtained a Judgement of 115. l. against him and by the Law a writ of Error lyes before rhe Right Honourable the Lords in Parliament but the King being concerned in it the course was to procure his Majestyes hand for the writ of Error and it hath pleased their Good Lordships for a supply thereof as Aequavalent thereunto in Judgement of Law to grant an Order for a writ of Error which is now obtained besides he stands Indicted by the name of VVilliam Trigg Shoo maker al●as VVilliam Trigg Hee le maker alias VVilliam Trigg Last maker alias VVilliam Trigg Gent. and one sayes hee will take a Course with him for his short Cures another sayes this Trigg workes by the Devill or else he could never do such cures and there are so many Actions against him and such designes to ruine him that I feare whether there be not some Ingredient of malice or tincture of Emulation in the violent prosecution of it for though it be well knowne that the worthy President of the Colledge and many of the Doctors are Godly judicious and Learned men for which I honour and highly esteeme them yet whether the Prosecutors doe really sinceerely and entirely ayme at the health and welfare of poore people Mr. Dr. Clarke in putting him downe from practise as is pretended seemes to me very questionable for I conceive a greater displeasure and prejudice cannot be done to the poore people of this City then by
