the assistance of so wise a Council will disperse I must needs say both from my own Observation and the Information I have had from my Lords the Judges who often visit the whole Kingdom that there is a great readiness and willingness in all People to serve and obey the King I must here a little enlarge to your Excellency because I reckon my self bound to give the King an account of his Subjects and I would not willingly say any thing when I am at such a distance which I have not mentioned here The English in this Country have been aspersed with the Character of being generally Fanaticks which is a great Injury to them I must do them the justice to say that they are of the Church of England as appears by their Actions as well as Professions The Churches here are as much frequented and the Discipline of the Church as well observed as in England it self which is to be attributed to the Piety and Labour of my Lords the Bishops We of the Church of England can brag that when Rebellion overspread the three Kingdoms not one Orthodox Member of our Church was engaged against the Crown And in our late Disorders we can boast we were Opposers of the Bills of Exclusion and the Sense his Majesty has been graciously pleas'd to express of our Loyalty will never be forgotten by us I had the happiness to be born a Member of the Church of England and I hope God will give me the Grace to die one One thing the English of this Country have to glory in That of all his Majesty's Subjects they made the earliest Advances towards his Majesty's Restoration when the three Kingdoms were governed by Usurpers And after all the Endeavours of his Loyal Subjects in England seemed to be disappointed and there appeared no Hopes by the total defeating of Sir G. Booth the English then in this Kingdom offered to submit to his Majesty's Authority I do not say this my Lord to detract from his Majesty's R. C. Loyal Subjects many of whom I my self knew serv'd and suffered with him abroad but I speak it in justice to the others who did their Duty There is but one thing more I shall trouble your Excellency with I am sorry that I cannot say that I leave a full Treasure but I can say that I leave no Debts The Revenue is in good Order which must be owned to be due to the unwearied Industry and Diligence of the Commissioners The Army is intirely paid to Christmass day last and I have advanced a Month's Subsistence-money for January The Civil and Pensionary Lists are likewise cleared to Christmass I doubt not but your Excellency's Care will carry all things on in the same Method God Almighty bless the King and grant him long Life and I beseech God to prosper this excellent Country I received this Sword in Peace and I thank God by the King's Command I deliver it in Peace to your Excellency and I heartily wish you Joy of the Honour the King has done you A General Abstract of the Gross Produce of his Majesty's Revenue in Ireland in the three first Years of the Management beginning at Christmass 1682. ending Christmass 1685.  1683 1684 1685.

Thresh part of his Corn for his own use During which time they took away all his Stock of Sheep Black Cattel and Horses and the Soldiers from Navan Commanded by one Captain Farrel fetcht away all his Corn and Hay Some of his Irish-Servants telling him It was not safe for him to come down or lye in his own House He lay in a Neighbours House This was on a Friday-Night and the next Day he went to Dublin On Sunday Night the 5th of May 1689. they came and set Fire to his House in several places and burnt it down and all his Goods believing he was in the House Afterwards giving out That he had order'd his own Servants to Burn it And soon after came up one William Carton his Shepherd who told him That the Fryar and Priests at Navan were very angry with him and Threatned him because he did not countenance that Report and also own that his Servants had Burnt his House by his Order All this was done by the Neighbourhood within 3 or 4 Miles about him A Brief of the Case of the Charter of Londonderry upon which Judgment was given against it Quo Warranto against the Corporation of Londonderry to shew why they Claim'd to be a Body Politick and to have and use certain other Priviledges THE Corporation pleaded their CHARTER whereby those Priviledges were granted to them eo Warranto they claim to have and use those Priviledges Tho King's Attorny Replies and saith That since their Charter the Act of Settlement impowers the Lord Lieutenant and Council to make Rules and Orders for the Regulating Corporations That accordingly such Rules were made for this Corporation among which One was That they were to Elect at a time different from that in the Charter and Return the Names of the Persons the Corporation should elect yearly to be Mayor and Sheriffs to the Lord Lieutenant and to be approved of unde ex quo that they did not so elect and send the Names of such elected to be so Approved they forfeited their Priviledges The Corporation in their Rejoynder gave a full Answer to this New Matter raised in Replication on these New Rules and set forth That they did all along yearly elect and send up the Names elected according to the Rules and that they were Approved c. But further insisted at the Bar That they needed not to have any further Rejoynder to the said Replication or given any Answer as to the Matter in the said Replication alledged because admitting the Allegations in the said Replication to be true yet the Replication assigns no breach by the Corporation For all that comes after the Unde ex quo is but a Conclusion and solely a Conclusion without any Premisses for tho' the New Rules be set forth yet 't is not said in all the Replication That the Corporation did not act pursuant thereto but only saith Unde ex quo they did not c. 1. The Court said The Answer given to the New Rules was a Departure from the Matter pleaded viz. They Justifie in the Plea by the Charter and in their Rejoynder they say They chuse according to the New Rules which is another Warrant to chuse and so the Plea vitious To which the Corporation Reply'd That a Departure is when a Party in a Rejoynder sets up a New Title to a thing or a New Justification not set up in the Plea But here they still Justifie by their Charter and the New Rules made subsequent is only to the Modus of Chusing in respect of Time c. but the Power of Chusing is still by the Charter 2. The Plea was not only a Plain Answer to a short Question demanded by the Quo Warranto viz by what Warrant they claimed their Priviledges and the Matter of the New Rules was set up by the King in his Replication to which they had no opportunity of Answering till they Rejoyn'd 3. If it had been material to be set forth in the Plea yet it being a Condition subsequent if any thing and going in destruction of the Corporation Priviledges they ought not first by the Rules of Law to set it forth but it ought first to come on the Adversaries part 4. The Corporation urged That the New Rules did not in Law work any Forfeiture of Priviledges in case they were not observed for they were in the Affirmative only and the Rule of Law is That Acts in the Affirmative take not away a former Power of doing a thing but the same may be done either the first way or the second Notwithstanding all which on the said pretended defect in Pleading the Merits of the Cause never coming in question the Court gave Judgment against the Corporation N o 8.

at all at least without any given in their Warrants it was time enough to invent some against the next Assizes There never wanted Evidence enough to accuse a Man the very Priests being forward to encourage such Perjuries as were to the prejudice of Protestants Of this there are several Instances on Record in the Courts of Justice where we find them sometimes swearing Falshoods themselves and sometimes encouraging others to do it Of which the Courts even in spite of all their partiality were satisfied I gave one Example before in Sir William Petty's Case There is another of Mr. Balfours in the County of Fermanagh where the false Affidavit of one Hultaghan a Priest had almost destroyed his Cause and lost him a considerable Estate 2. Upon this account Perjuries became so common that if a Tenant owed his Protestant Landlord his Rent he payed him by swearing him into a Plot or by fixing on him some Treasonable or Seditious Words If a Papist had any former Quarrel with his Protestant Neigbor or owed him Money he paid him in the same Coin Many were indicted by these Contrivances many found guilty and excessively fin'd some were imprisoned for their Fines not being able to satisfie the King who seised both their Bodies and Estates Hardly any County in Ireland was free from numerous Indictments of this kind and very few Country Gentlemen escaped being accused Great numbers were indicted and found guilty in the Counties of Wexford and Wicklow to the number at least of sixty the most considerable Gentlemen in the County of Meath were indicted but had better luck the Perjury of their Accusers being made so manifest that even a Popish Bench had not the confidence to countenance it nor a Popish Jury to find it Thus Mr. Meredith Mr. Parry Mr. Chetwin a Minister and several others escaped having discovered the very bottom of a wicked Contrivance to carry on a Trade of Swearing against all the Gentlemen in the Country but though they discovered it yet they durst not prosecute it by reason of some Priests being concerned in it and of the Discountenance of the Courts a great many in the County of Tipperary were likewise brought into Trouble but escaped the first time by a kind of Miracle one of the Jurors was so maliciously bent against them that he swore he would die before he would acquit them It happened to him according to his own desire he fell dead in the place whilst they were disputing about returning the Verdict which saved the Gentlemen for that time Yet this did not discourage their Prosecutors they caused them to be indicted anew and upon their second Tryal Justin Macarty afterwards made Lord Mountcashell by King James came into the Court threatened and hectored Sir John Mead who then sate as Judge for the Duke of Ormond it being within his Graces Palatinate because he would not direct the Jury to find them guilty but Sir John stood his Ground and declared that there was no sufficient Evidence against them upon which they were acquitted It vexed them that they could not bring their Popish Judges and Sheriffs into that County as they did into the rest of Ireland by reason that the nomination of them was in his Grace as Lord of the Regalities and therefore in their pretended Parliament they not only Attainted him but likewise by a particular Act dissolved his Principality Their First Plot against the Gentlemen of the County having miscarried they began a second and got Depositions against several but they were as unlucky in this as in the first They laid the Scheme of their Affairs so unskilfully that the Witnesses swore that the Gentlemen met to carry on their Plot at Nenagh a place above sixty Miles from Dublin on the same day that some of them had been examined before the Council Board on the first Informations This appearing to the Council by an entry made in their own Books quashed the Design against them and saved them a third time It would make a Volume to enumerate all the Particulars of this Nature 3. The new Mayors and Justices of the Peace were no less troublesome to Protestants in their Employments they made no scruple to send their Tokens and Warrants for Persons of the best Quality And wherever a Papist and Protestant had any difference there needed no more but a complaint to procure a Committal and to be sure it was done with all the indignity and affronting Circumstances imaginable Sir Thomas Hackett whilst Lord Mayor of Dublin did so many brutish and barbarous things of this nature that it were endless to recount them taking example from the Lord Tyrconnel who made him Mayor he treated every body with Oaths Curses ill Names and barbarous Language The Lord Primate Boyles Family could not escape his Warrants he or his Clerk as he afterwards pretended sent one for Mr. Francis Cuff and Mr. Jephson who lived in my Lords Family being his Son in Law and Nephew their Crime was refusing to Contribute to the maintenance of two begging Fryars one of them was one Magee a Debauchee and Renegado who had the impudence to have demanded it from my Lord Primate if he had been permitted access The Fryars vexed that they should be repulsed procured a Warrant for the two Gentlemen that refused them and attempted the Execution of it in my Lord Primates House with a Rabble of near two hundred Sir Thomas was not content to Execute his Authority within his own Precincts but extended it where the Mayors Power was never owned He sent his Warrant and committed the Officers of Christs Church Dublin to the Stocks because he fancied they did not make the Bells ring merrily enough for the Birth of the Prince of Wales It was in vain for the Officers to tell him that their Church and Persons were not subject to his Jurisdiction that if the Bells did not ring merrily enough as he alledged it was the Ringers fault not theirs That no body besides his Lordship could observe any such thing in their Ringing His brutish Passion would not give him leave to hearken to Reason but upon all occasions he proceeded in the same method which made every body that valued his Liberty get out of his Power and prevailed with a great many to leave their Estates and Concerns and Transport themselves and what Effects they could carry with them into England It was unsafe and uneasie living both in the City and in the Country and he reckoned himself happy that could get out of them at any rate 4. But when the Descent was made by his present Majesty into England things grew yet more troublesome The Protestants were every where Robbed and Plundered The new Commissioned Officers and their Souldiers under the new name of Rapperies committed many Outrages and Devastations on their Protestant Neighbours insomuch that they could not be safe in their Houses If any endeavoured to keep their Houses though merely to secure themselves from the

The Parliament granted the King a Tax of 20000 l. per Month for thirteen Months which the Kingdom could hardly have paid if it had been in its most Flourishing Condition but they knew it would fall most heavy on the Protestants who must be forced to pay it out of their ready Mony having lost their Stocks generally by Plundering and deprived of their Rents and Incomes 2. Because the Protestants in and about Dublin had saved some Hides Tallow Wooll c. King James by pretence of his Prerogative Royal laid a Tax of 20000 l. per. Month for three Months on Chattels because the 20000 l. per Month granted by the Parliament was only on Lands This way of levying Mony did startle every Body the pretended Parliament was then in being and was adjourned till January 12. 1689. which happened to be about the very time when the King and his Council were upon this Project Some in the Council oppos'd it and pleaded the no necessity of using extraordinary ways of levying Mony when the King might have it in the ordinary way and further that it would give advantage to his Enemies and be an Argument of his affecting an Arbitrary Power but he was very angry with those that oppos'd it and told them That they had made him believe it was a Branch of his Prerogative to Levy Mony and If he could not do it he could do nothing Chancellor Fitton appear'd Zealously for it and 't was carried that the Mony should be raised but it being a new thing they were at a loss how to go about it at last they issued out a Proclamation dated February 4. 1689. wherein 't is ordered and declared That a Contribution of 20000 l. per Month for the space of three Months ending the last day of January last past shall be forthwith applotted laid in and levied upon the Personal Estates of all Sorts And the Applotment is order'd to be made by Commissioners to be nam'd by the King Who were to proceed according to Instructions forthwith to be published by him Albaville the Secretary of State thought it sufficient to send Letters signed only by himself in which he named and instructed the Commissioners but the Persons so named for Dublin judged this Authority insufficient and demur'd on the Execution till they had their Nomination and Instructions according to the Proclamation from the King himself under the Great Seal The King was heartily angry at them for this Demur and was hardly prevailed on to Issue a Commission under the Seal in the usual Forms as judging his Secretaries Letter a sufficient Warrant But at last the Commission was issued in which the Commissioners were named and impower'd to nominate Sub-Commissioners for every Barony in their respective Counties to make the Applotment of which Sub-Commissioners the High-Constable was to be one The Commissioners of Dublin and other Cities were not yet satisfied for their Counties had neither Baronies nor High-Constables and therefore the Commission could not be duly executed in them they therefore applied a new to the Lords of the Treasury for a more ample Commission which put the Lords and Attorney-General in as great a Passion as the King was in before and all the answer return'd to the Commissioners was That they should go about their Business without such frivolous Scruples or they should take a course with them The Commissioners being thus appointed were most of them Papists and the few Protestants that were named declin'd acting as much as they durst by which means the Papists had the applotting intirely in their own Hands and never fail'd to lay the greatest Burden on their Protestant Neighbours who in effect paid all Taxes that King James ever receiv'd in Ireland 3. The Papists raised a Militia and inasmuch as Protestants were not qualified to serve in it by the Proclamation which did not allow them to bear Arms they were assess'd at a certain Rate for the Maintenance of the Militia and sent to Prison if they refused to pay it The Tax was as great as either of the former amounting in the small Parish of St. Wâ—rburghs Dublin in which not above one half of the Protestant-dwellers were left to 900 l. per Annum 4. They pretended to make some small Ditches at the several Avenues of the Town and for these likewise the Protestants must pay and they tax'd them at what Rate they pleased Distraining or committing them to Goal if they refused to pay what was exacted or wanted Mony Before they form'd this Militia business into a Tax the Officers of the Militia went about Weekly for several Weeks and demanded and took what they pleased from every House with great Rigor committing those who disputed their Demands which was for the time it lasted a Heavy Burthen and a Prodigious Tax 5. Towards the middle of Winter 1689. their Forces were dispersed into their Winter-Quarters very few being left in Dublin it was most convenient to have such as remain'd in it quarter'd together at least it was judged unsafe to have them dispersed in Protestant Houses therefore they seiz'd on wast Houses and filled them with the Soldiers the rest they quarter'd in the Colledge Nevertheless that the Protestants might not escape Free they obliged them to send in Beds to the Soldiers but instead of Beds they took a Composition in Mony the Rate was from 24 s. to 5 l. for every House This fell intirely on the Protestants the Papists being conniv'd at and the Conditions were not generally made good to them after they paid for within two or three Months some had Soldiers quartered on them again tho while it lasted it must be confess'd it was a great Convenience and Ease to be rid of such Guests at any rate 6. All these Contrivances to get Mony from Protestants did indeed Impoverish them but by their Industry and Charity to one another they made a shift to subsist and to keep something in reserve but the Contrivance of making Brass Mony pass instead of Silver and at an equal Value with it was an utter and unavoidable Ruin to them It is true the Coining of Mony is a Prerogative of the Crown and the reason of its being so is to prevent its being adulterated the King's Honor and Interest being the Engagement and Security for the Coin that bears his Impression But sure the meaning was not that he should give a Value to what has no Value in it self otherwise the Cautiousness of our Forefathers was ridiculous who would not allow the King by his Prerogative to raise Mony either by Loan or Subsidy from the Subject since if it be allowed that he may set what value he pleases upon Brass he may have what he thinks fit from the Kingdom without
but by the legal course of Juries But King James and his Parliament intended to do the work of Protestants speedily and effectually and not to wait the slow methods of proceeding at the Common Law They resolv'd therefore on a Bill of Attainder and in order to it every Member of the House of Commons return'd the Names of such Protestant Gentlemen as liv'd near him or in the County or Burrough for which he serv'd and if he was a stranger to it he sent into the County or Place for information they were in great haste and many escaped them on the other hand some that were actually in King James's Service and fighting for him at Derry of which Cornet Edmund Keating Nephew to my Lord Chief Justice Keating was one were return'd as absent and attainted in the Act. When they had made a Collection of Names they cast them into several Forms and attainted them under several Qualifications and accordingly allow'd them time to come in and put themselves on Tryal the Qualifications and Numbers were as follow 1. Persons Attainted of Rebellion who had time given them till till the Tenth of August to surrender themselves and be tryed provided they were in the Kingdom and amenable to the Law at the time of making the Act otherwise were absolutely Attainted One Archbishop One Duke Fourteen Earls Seventeen Viscounts and one Viscountess Two Bishops Twelve Barons Twenty six Baronets Twenty two Knights Fifty six Clergymen Eleven hundred fifty three Esquires Gentlemen c. 2. Persons who were absentees before the Fifth of Novem. 1688 not returning according to the Proclamation of the Twenty fifth of March attainted if they do not appear by the First of September 1689. One Lord. Seven Knights Eight Clergymen Sixty five Esquires Gentlemen c. 3. Persons who were Absentees before the Fifth of November 1688. not returning according to the Proclamation of the Twenty fifth of March attainted if they do not appear by the First day of October 1689. One Archbishop One Earl One Viscount Five Bishops Seven Baronets Eight Knights Nineteen Clergymen Four hunder'd thirteen Esquires Gentlemen c. 4. Persons usually resident in England who are to signifie their Loyalty in case the King goes there the First of October 1689. and on His Majesties Certificate to the Chief Governour here they to be discharged otherwise to stand attainted One Earl Fifteen Viscounts and Lords Fourteen Knights Four hunder'd ninety two Esquires Gentlemen c. 5. Absentees by reason of sickness and noneage on proving their Loyalty before the last day of the first Term after their return to be acquitted and restor'd in the mean time their Estates Real and Personal are vested in His Majesty One Earl Seven Countesses One Viscountess Thirteen Ladies One Baronet Fifty nine Gentlemen and Gentlewomen 6. They vest all Lands c. belonging to Minors Ladies Gentlewomen in the King till they return and then upon Proof of their Loyalty and Faithfulness to King James they are allow'd to sue for their Estates before the Commissioners for executing the Acts of Repeal and Attainder if sitting or in the High Court of Chancery or Court of Exchequer and upon a Decree obtain'd for them there the Sheriffs are to put them in possession of so much as by the Decree of one of those Courts shall be adjudged them The Clauses in the Act are so many and so considerable that it never having been printed intire I thought it convenient to put it into the Appendix Perhaps it was never equall'd in any Nation since the time of the Proscription in Rome and not then neither for here is more than half as many Condemned in the small Kingdom of Ireland as was at that time proscribed in the greatest part of the then known World yet that was esteemed an unparallel'd Cruelty When Sir Richard Nagle Speaker of the House of Commons presented the Bill to King James for his Royal Assent he told him that many were attainted in that Act by the House of Commons upon such Evidence as fully satisfied the House the rest of them were attainted he said upon common Fame A Speech so very brutish that I can hardly perswade my self that I shall gain credit to the Relation but it is certainly true the Houses of Lords and Commons of their pretended Parliament are Witnesses of it and let the World judge what security Protestants could have of their Lives when so considerable a Lawyer as Sir Richard Nagle declares in so solemn an occasion and King James with his Parliament approves that common Fame is a sufficient Evidence to deprive without hearing so many of the Gentry Nobility and Clergy of their Lives and Fortunes without possibility of pardon and not not only cut off them but their Children and Posterity likewise By a particular Clause from advantages of which the former Laws of the Kingdom would not have deprived them though their Fathers had been found guilty of the worst of Treasons in particular Tryals 7. I shall only add a few Observations on this Act and leave the Reader to make others as he shall find occasion 1. Then this Act leaves no room for the King to pardon after the last day of November 1689. if the Pardon be not Enroll'd before that time the Act declares it absolutely void and null 2. The Act was conceal'd and no Protestant for any Money permitted to see it much less take a Copy of it till the time limited for Pardons was past at least Four Months So that the State of the Persons here attainted is desperate and irrecoverable except an Irish Popish Parliament will relieve them for King James took care to put it out of the power of any English Parliament as well as out of his own Power to help them by consenting to another Act of this pretended Parliament Intituled An Act declaring that the Parliaments of England cannot bind Ireland and against Writs of Errors and Repeals out of Ireland into England 3. It is observable with what hast and confusion this Act was drawn up and past perhaps no man ever heard of such a crude imperfect thing so ill digested and compos'd past on the World for a Law We find the same Person brought in under different Qualifications in one Place he is expresly allow'd till the First of October to come and submit to Tryalâ— and yet in another Place he is attainted if he do not come in by the First of September many are attainted by wrong Names many have their Christian Names left out and many whose Names and Sirnames are both put in are not distinguished by any Character whereby they may be known from others of the same Names 4. Many considerable Persons are left out which certainly had been put in if they could have gotten their Names which is a further proof of their hast and confusion in passing the Bill It is observable the Provost Fellowâ— and Scholars of the Colledge by Dublin are all omitted the Reason was

Encouragers and Abettors of them by an unpardonable neglect in the Execution of his Royal Orders And whereas the Issuing out Commissions of Oyer and Terminer in all the Counties of the Kingdom which was done some Months ago was judged by his Majesty with the Advice of his Privy Council the most Efficacious means to prevent and quash such horrid Disorders I. You are Ordered by his Majesty on sight hereof to let Me his Principal Secretary of State know what you can alledge to justifie your selves from the Imputation of having strangely Neglected all this time the Execution of your Commission which proves the chiefest Cause of this general Desolation of the Country II. You are Commanded by his Majesty to proceed without the least delay to the Execution of your Commission and send to me for his Majesties information a Weekly Account of your Proceedings III. That you Adjourn from one Week to another and at farthest not above a Fortnight IV. That you proceed with all Just Severity against such of the Justices of the Peace as have Bayled contrary to Law Malefactors And against all such as favour in any manner Robbers and Thieves V. That you proceed against all persons whatsoever who have given or will give any Obstruction to the Execution of your Commission And if they prove Officers of the Army or Absent so as you do not think fit to proceed against them that you forthwith send me an Account thereof VI. That you proceed with all Rigour against all persons found Guilty of Counterfeiting the Kings Coyn. VII And lastly That you Order all men to fall upon publick Robbers who have no regard of their Duty towards GOD their King or Country destitute of all sense of humanity and consider them but as wild beasts who live upon Prey and Rapine This is Gentlemen what I have at present in Command from his Majesty to send to you to which I will adde this Advertisement That you cannot light upon better Measures to Allay the KINGS just Resentment of your former Neglects the occasion of a world of Mischief then by a speedy and vigorous Execution of your Commission Let the present general cryes of the people for Justice and the present general Oppression under which the Country groans move you to have a Compassion of it and to raise in you such a publick spirit as may Save it from this inundation of Miseries that break in upon it by a Neglect of his Majesties Orders and by a general relaxation of all Civil and Military Laws Consider that our Enemies leaving us to our selves as they do conclude we shall prove greater Enemies to one another than they can be to us and that we will destroy the Country and enslave our selves more than they are able to do What Inhumanities are daily committed against one another gives but too much ground to the truth of what our Enemies conclude of us I had almost forgot a special Command of his Majesty that is That you will consider the Liberty of Conscience granted by Act of Parliament and to punish the Infringers of that Law who by an indiscreet and inconsiderable Zeal usurp his Majesties Prerogative not reflecting how much his Majesties and the Nations interest and not only the Religion of the Nation but the Catholick Religion in all the parts of Christendom is involved in a Religious Execution of that Liberty of Conscience Dublin-Castle Jan. 2. 1689.
