A92226	Reasons for establishment of publike sale. Humbly tendered, as well in behalf of the Common-wealth, as likewise of the purchasers of the estate of Sir John Stowel, and all others, who upon the warrant and authority of an Act of Parliament, and in service thereto have not engaged their estates and money, but the price and blood of themselves and nearest relations.		1654 (1654)	Wing R495; Thomason 669.f.19[36]; ESTC R212337	3,171	1

reason_n for_o establishment_n of_o public_a sale_n humble_o tender_v as_o well_o in_o behalf_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n as_o likewise_o of_o the_o purchaser_n of_o the_o estate_n of_o sir_n john_n

preincumbrance_n on_o their_o act_n and_o want_v of_o power_n to_o warrant_v they_o 2._o such_o a_o principle_n may_v not_o only_o destroy_v all_o article_n in_o general_a but_o do_v particular_o those_o of_o exeter_n for_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o war_n all_o adherer_n to_o the_o parl._n be_v promise_v indemnity_n therein_o against_o the_o delinquent_n and_o his_o party_n which_o very_a

or_o their_o friend_n who_o have_v lose_v their_o life_n and_o estate_n in_o the_o service_n and_o it_o can_v therefore_o be_v reason_n or_o justice_n to_o allow_v the_o delinquent_n to_o disannul_v the_o act_n of_o sale_n by_o a_o pre-promise_n of_o indemnity_n in_o article_n and_o not_o to_o allow_v those_o innocent_n to_o avoid_v his_o act_n of_o article_n by_o those_o pre-promise_n of_o
