consequence_n in_o law_n will_v be_v that_o be_v in_o your_o lordship_n breast_n i_o be_o now_o speak_v upon_o the_o evidence_n that_o this_o have_v not_o be_v practise_v what_o the_o law_n be_v for_o that_o we_o be_v to_o have_v your_o judgement_n which_o i_o humble_o crave_v i_o will_v be_v judge_v by_o gentleman_n that_o be_v my_o senior_n and_o better_a read_v in_o this_o matter_n but_o my_o lord_n a_o man_n may_v have_v a_o power_n of_o call_v and_o dissolve_v and_o not_o of_o adjourn_v it_o may_v be_v so_o but_o my_o lord_n admit_v it_o to_o be_v so_o for_o this_o time_n yet_o my_o lord_n whether_o we_o be_v guilty_a of_o a_o riot_n take_v the_o circumstance_n of_o our_o case_n whether_o the_o right_a of_o adjourn_v be_v in_o the_o sheriff_n yea_o or_o nay_o it_o be_v a_o question_n of_o right_n and_o i_o have_v rather_o apply_v myself_o to_o your_o lordship_n than_o to_o the_o jury_n if_o there_o be_v a_o question_n of_o right_n between_o the_o lord_n mayor_n and_o the_o sheriff_n it_o may_v be_v admit_v by_o our_o council_n that_o it_o be_v his_o right_n to_o adjourn_v the_o court_n and_o probable_o the_o sheriff_n may_v be_v in_o the_o wrong_n and_o the_o lord_n mayor_n in_o the_o right_n the_o lord_n mayor_n adjourn_v the_o court_n and_o they_o continue_v it_o they_o go_v on_o with_o the_o poll_n and_o go_v on_o with_o the_o execution_n of_o their_o office_n as_o they_o apprehend_v if_o they_o be_v still_o for_o their_o right_n i_o hope_v your_o lordship_n will_v not_o make_v this_o a_o riot_n my_o lord_n for_o the_o circumstance_n that_o follow_v the_o noise_n that_o be_v make_v which_o i_o do_v love_v to_o mention_v if_o i_o say_v they_o be_v guilty_a of_o this_o i_o be_o silent_a but_o if_o they_o do_v no_o more_o as_o i_o hear_v no_o more_o prove_v upon_o they_o then_o continue_v the_o poll_n then_o i_o say_v it_o will_v be_v very_o hard_a to_o make_v they_o guilty_a of_o the_o riot_n and_o another_o thing_n be_v this_o my_o lord_n we_o all_o know_v if_o there_o be_v a_o thousand_o elector_n any_o man_n know_v that_o when_o there_o be_v a_o question_n upon_o a_o election_n it_o be_v impossible_a such_o a_o thing_n shall_v be_v carry_v on_o but_o there_o will_v be_v revile_v ill_a language_n and_o the_o like_a and_o to_o turn_v all_o these_o thing_n to_o a_o riot_n a_o thing_n so_o common_a from_o the_o begin_n of_o election_n to_o this_o time_n if_o there_o be_v division_n and_o poll_n there_o will_v be_v something_o you_o may_v turn_v to_o a_o riot_n but_o i_o say_v this_o they_o have_v not_o instance_a in_o any_o one_o defendant_n that_o he_o be_v guilty_a of_o any_o one_o particular_a act_n that_o amount_v to_o a_o riot_n in_o itself_o they_o have_v not_o instance_a in_o one_o they_o say_v of_o alderman_n cornish_n that_o he_o be_v of_o the_o same_o opinion_n with_o the_o sheriff_n that_o they_o do_v insist_v upon_o the_o right_n of_o the_o city_n he_o take_v it_o to_o be_v the_o right_n of_o the_o sheriff_n and_o say_v one_o of_o they_o i_o will_v stand_v upon_o it_o bethell_n that_o have_v be_v sheriff_n now_o we_o will_v call_v our_o witness_n we_o will_v prove_v what_o have_v be_v the_o constant_a practice_n in_o the_o city_n we_o will_v prove_v the_o method_n of_o adjournment_n and_o my_o lord_n this_o be_v to_o be_v say_v which_o your_o lordship_n will_v observe_v that_o the_o sheriff_n adjourn_v the_o court_n to_o the_o very_a same_o time_n with_o my_o lord_n mayor_n so_o that_o it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o to_o bring_v the_o matter_n to_o a_o issue_n in_o this_o case_n sir_n fr._n winnington_n spare_v i_o a_o word_n in_o this_o case_n my_o lord_n there_o be_v no_o evidence_n produce_v against_o trenchard_n nor_o against_o jekyl_n the_o young_a nor_o against_o bifield_n nor_o 〈…〉_z of_o these_o there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o they_o be_v as_o if_o they_o be_v out_o of_o the_o information_n i_o must_v beg_v leave_n for_o a_o word_n or_o two_o as_o to_o those_o defendant_n that_o they_o have_v offer_v some_o evidence_n against_o the_o question_n be_v now_o before_o your_o lordship_n whether_o they_o be_v guilty_a of_o a_o riot_n or_o no_o my_o lord_n for_o aught_o i_o see_v it_o will_v stand_v upon_o a_o nicety_n of_o judgement_n yet_o if_o there_o be_v not_o matter_n enough_o gentleman_n to_o make_v the_o defendant_n guilty_a of_o a_o riot_n than_o it_o will_v clear_v the_o defendant_n my_o lord_n as_o to_o those_o word_n that_o real_o be_v word_n that_o ought_v to_o be_v inquire_v into_o who_o they_o be_v that_o speak_v they_o in_o relation_n to_o his_o majesty_n i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o very_a ill_a thing_n of_o those_o man_n that_o see_v they_o that_o they_o will_v not_o neglect_v all_o manner_n of_o business_n to_o seize_v they_o i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o duty_n to_o fix_v upon_o they_o but_o my_o lord_n there_o be_v no_o evidence_n to_o put_v it_o upon_o any_o of_o the_o defendant_n my_o lord_n that_o be_v pare_v off_o now_o the_o question_n be_v that_o the_o meeting_n together_o be_v lawful_a that_o be_v agree_v then_o when_o they_o come_v together_o my_o lord_n i_o do_v think_v that_o if_o we_o do_v rely_v upon_o the_o evidence_n it_o will_v be_v a_o mighty_a hard_a thing_n to_o make_v this_o a_o riot_n set_v aside_o those_o villainous_a word_n that_o be_v speak_v which_o can_v relate_v to_o the_o defendant_n suppose_v my_o lord_n that_o among_o the_o elector_n the_o whole_a common-hall_n of_o the_o city_n there_o do_v a_o dispute_n arise_v before_o the_o election_n be_v over_o concern_v the_o adjournment_n of_o the_o sheriff_n or_o the_o lord_n mayor_n some_o man_n be_v of_o one_o opinion_n some_o be_v of_o another_o and_o their_o evidence_n mr._n peter_n king_n and_o another_o attorney_n i_o ask_v the_o question_n several_a time_n do_v the_o lord_n mayor_n of_o london_n ever_o interpose_v or_o concern_v himself_o in_o adjourn_v the_o hall_n till_o the_o election_n be_v quite_o finish_v and_o they_o say_v no_o then_o my_o lord_n i_o must_v say_v it_o as_o to_o these_o particular_a defendant_n in_o such_o a_o concourse_n of_o people_n as_o be_v meet_v there_o it_o be_v as_o slender_a a_o proof_n of_o a_o riot_n as_o ever_o be_v and_o intimate_v that_o the_o citizen_n of_o london_n they_o that_o happen_v not_o to_o be_v the_o great_a number_n they_o that_o lose_v the_o election_n may_v be_v find_v guilty_a of_o a_o riot_n in_o choose_v other_o officer_n as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o business_n of_o sheriff_n which_o be_v so_o tender_a a_o point_n i_o think_v it_o will_v be_v a_o very_a severe_a exposition_n my_o lord_n to_o make_v this_o a_o riot_n but_o now_o for_o the_o matter_n we_o will_v call_v to_o your_o lordship_n several_a witness_n man_n that_o have_v be_v magistrate_n in_o the_o city_n that_o it_o be_v always_o look_v upon_o that_o my_o lord_n mayor_n as_o he_o be_v the_o principal_a magistrate_n he_o give_v notice_n for_o common-hall_n and_o when_o the_o several_a elector_n be_v meet_v and_o the_o business_n be_v over_o he_o direct_v they_o to_o go_v home_o and_o dissolve_v they_o but_o my_o lord_n mayor_n meddle_v not_o in_o every_o little_a administration_n of_o the_o election_n of_o officer_n but_o leave_v they_o to_o inferior_a officer_n the_o sheriff_n and_o other_o that_o be_v their_o duty_n my_o lord_n with_o submission_n they_o poll_n they_o and_o send_v they_o home_o during_o the_o election_n therefore_o by_o law_n they_o do_v this_o for_o my_o lord_n the_o custom_n of_o a_o city_n and_o the_o custom_n of_o a_o place_n be_v the_o law_n of_o the_o place_n and_o if_o the_o custom_n of_o the_o place_n have_v be_v that_o the_o sheriff_n have_v be_v the_o person_n that_o have_v manage_v it_o it_o be_v their_o right_n but_o the_o common_a sergeant_n he_o say_v he_o have_v the_o sole_a management_n of_o it_o then_o if_o it_o be_v as_o mr._n common_a sergeant_n say_v if_o that_o must_v go_v upon_o my_o word_n gentleman_n your_o privilege_n be_v reduce_v to_o a_o little_a compass_n l._n c._n j._n they_o do_v confer_v one_o with_o another_o who_o they_o take_v to_o have_v the_o most_o voice_n and_o so_o report_v it_o not_o that_o he_o do_v claim_v any_o thing_n in_o his_o own_o right_n but_o as_o a_o officer_n of_o the_o city_n now_o it_o be_v plain_a and_o i_o think_v there_o be_v no_o inconveniency_n fall_v upon_o it_o if_o a_o officer_n acquaint_v my_o lord_n mayor_n according_a to_o the_o best_a of_o our_o judgement_n we_o think_v such_o a_o man_n have_v the_o most_o voice_n that_o do_v not_o give_v he_o a_o right_a for_o he_o to_o make_v a_o officer_n not_o at_o all_o sir_n fr._n winnington_n i_o say_v what_o he_o

we_o do_v discourse_n of_o the_o adjournment_n in_o this_o court_n i_o believe_v it_o be_v discourse_v below_o but_o as_o i_o say_v i_o be_v engage_v to_o go_v to_o the_o old_a bayley_n and_o i_o will_v leave_v that_o matter_n to_o the_o sheriff_n who_o proper_a business_n i_o understand_v it_o to_o be_v mr._n att._n gen._n i_o ask_v you_o sir_n robert_n one_o of_o the_o plain_a question_n that_o ever_o be_v ask_v i_o ask_v you_o whether_o you_o give_v the_o sheriff_n or_o the_o common_a sergeant_n express_v order_n to_o adjourn_v sir_n r._n clayton_n i_o believe_v i_o do_v not_o mr._n

the_o question_n sir_n robert_n do_v you_o remember_v the_o common_a hall_n be_v adjourn_v while_o you_o be_v there_o sir_n r._n clayton_n yes_o sir_n if_o you_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o explain_v myself_o i_o think_v the_o common_a hall_n be_v adjourn_v it_o be_v declare_v but_o there_o be_v such_o a_o noise_n in_o the_o hall_n that_o the_o people_n can_v not_o hear_v it_o mr._n s._n
