From Bury in Lancashire AMongst all the publique expressions of Joy every where manifested at his Majesties happy Proclamation though the Weekly News book made no mention of it I have not heard the Ceremony was more solemnly or handsomly managed anywhere then by us which ●o the credit of the Gentleman I cannot but speak it was Mr. Lightfoot our Ministers contrivance who during these hazardous times constantly owned his Maj●sties cause ●aid though ma●y with the world ●an round he still persisted to be homo quadratus and as often as the least opportunity seemed to favor his inclination he publiquely made profession of his Loyalty to his Soveraign wi●●●ss his bold and frequent mention of his present Maj●sty 〈◊〉 in his publique prayers in Sir George B●o●h● Expedition for which he suffered the deprivation of his Benefice I had not insisted so long upon this Gentlemans gallant carriage had he not been eminently both active and passive as the Scene varied for the same Interest and were not a large share of the loyal expressions in the ensuing Narrative justly due to him In short the ceremony was so splendid sumptuous and regular that it will almost seem incredible that a place comparatively so little should equal many more considerable Towns and that our Minister having satisfied his duty in Divine offices and which is more the expectations of so numerous ●n appearance of Gentry should prove so ingenious a Master of Ceremonies For though many more hands and purses went to the managing of that affair yet we were beholding to our Ministers head for much of the contrivance And as there was cause of an universal joy so there were large manifestations almost of a general resentment of it and effects truly worthy of so noble a cause the Country-Gentlemen neighboring Clergy and Soldiers both foot and horse each in their several stations being very cheerful and forward to perform the office of Auxiliaries upon so good an occasion and mutual emulation did provoke all of them to outvie each other in expressions of a hearty obedience to so grateful commands After the ceremonies in proclaiming his Majesty were ended we caused a Crown which was all that day carried before us to be placed on the top of a Red cross erected over the Town-●●ll where it now remains and then feasted all the Gentry which came to see the solemnity the Waits with loud musick ushering in the solemnity and we gave the Irish Brigade which quarter in our town a sum of monies and distributed others to the Ringers Garland and Bonfire-makers and also bestowed the Kings colors on all the horse and foot and in fine such rude expressions as Bells Guns and Bonfires could afford were abundantly during that day and the Fires continued fourteen days and nights after and the next day the joy was shewn by all the women in the parish who spent it in dancing and other monuments From Stockholm May 10.
