A65583	A second narrative of the late Parliament (so called) wherein, after a brief reciting some remarkable passages in the former narrative, is given an account of their second meeting, and things transacted by them : as also how the Protector (so called) came swearing, by the living God, and dissolved them, after two or three weeks sitting : with some quæries sadly proposed thereupon : together with an account of three and forty of their names, who were taken out of the house, and others that sate in the other house, intended for a House of Lords, but being so unexpectedly disappointed, could not take root, with a brief character and description of them : all humbly presented to publique view / by a friend to the good old cause of justice, righteousnesse, the freedom and liberties of the people, which hath cost so much bloud and treasury to be carried on in the late wars, and are not yet settled.	Wharton, George, Sir, 1617-1681.	1658 (1658)	Wing W1556; ESTC R8011	50,589	52

Sir Francis Russel Knight Baronet of the old Stamp a Gentleman of Cambridgeshire of a considerable Revenue in the beginning of the Wars was first for the King then for the Parliament and a Colonel of Foot under the Earl of Manchester a man like William Sedgwick high flown but not serious or substantial in his principles he continued in his Command till the new Model then took offence and fell off or laid aside by them no great Zealot for the cause therefore not judged honest serious or wise enough to be of the little Parliament yet was of these latter Paliaments Is also Chamberlain of Chester at about 500 l. per annum he marryed his eldest Daughter to Harry Cromwel second son of the Protector then Colonel of Horse now Lord Deputy so called of Ireland another to Colonel Reynolds a new Knight and General of the English Army in France under Cardinal Mazarine since with e Colonel White and others cast away coming from Mardike there is no question but his principles are for Kingship and the new Court being so greatly concern'd therein wherefore it were great pity if he should not also be taken out of the House to be a Lord of the Other House his Son-in-law being so great a Lord and have a Negative Voyce over Cambridgeshire and all the people of these Lands besides 37. Sir William Strickland Knight of the old Stamp a Gentleman of Yorkshire and brother to Walter Strickland was of the Parliament a long time but hath now it seems forgotten the cause of fighting with and cutting off the late Kings head and suppressing the Lords their House and Negative Voyce He was of these Latter Parliaments and of good compliance no question with the new Court and settling the Protector anew in all those things for which the King was cut off wherefore he is fit no doubt to be taken out of the House and made a Lord the rather for that his younger brother Walter is so great a Lord and by whom in all likelyhood he will be steer'd to use his Negative Voyce in the Other House over Yorkshire and the people of these Lands to the interest of the Court 38.

Mr. John Fiennes Son of the Lord Say and Brother to Commissioner Fiennes brought in it 's likely for one upon his score is in a kind such a one as they call a Sectary but no great stickler therefore not being redeemed from the fear and favour of man will it is probable follow his brother who is as it is thought much steer'd by old Subtilty his Father that lies in his Den as Thurloe by his Mr. St. Johns and will say No with the rest when any thing opposes the interest of the new Court their power and greatness and may therefore pass for one to be a Lord and to have a Negative Voyce

Judicature was questioned being dissolved and the Protector taking the Government upon him he adventured to comply with the rest notwithstanding the danger that so he might keep his place and interest and avoid a new Storm or Frown from the present Power Men need not seek far or study much to read him and what principles he acts by All things considered he may doubtless be very fit to be Lord of the Rolls being Master already and to be taken out of the Parliament to be made a Lord and to have a Negative Voyce in the Other House over the people as well as over the causes in the Rolls being so thoroughly exercised in Negatives at his own will and pleasure as too many have sadly felt 19.
