A54316	To the right honourable Lords spiritual and temporal in Parliament assembled, the humble petition of James Percy	Percy, James, 1619-1690?	1681 (1681)	Wing P1463A; ESTC R36664	6,014	8

that mistake of Clayming under Sir Richard for the Lord Chief Justice Hayls said at the first Tryal That the Plaintiff had proved himself Legitimate by Father and Mother by Grandfather and Grandmother but had taken his Descent too Low he must go a step or two Higher And the Lord Chief Justice Rainsford said to the Jury at that Tryal against Wright for Scandal That the Plaintiff had proved himself Legitimate and therefore did not examine the third part of his Witnesses but said His Pedegree was fully proved at a Tryal before that Court. So that the Plaintiff ought to have had a Verdict then when Mr. Henry Champion's Oath did perfect and fix'd the Pedegree as before-declared And the Lord Chief Justice Scroggs at the last Tryal against Blaickstone for Scandal and the whole Court did own the Pedegree of the Plaintiff only said The Declaration was nought When in Truth it was debated and allowed at the first part of the Tryal which is good Cause of Error As the Claymant hath laboured to find out the Truth even so he doth most humbly pray That all Wise Learned and Conscientious men may take Courage like the Lord Chief Justice Hayls and his Brethren and strictly inquire into the very bottom of the matter and to set aside all mistakes and set up Truth and maintain and speak cordially to and for Justice this being the only way to clear the Innocent and put a stop to Oppression And the Relieved as in Duty bound shall ever pray for his Majesties long Life and the Prosperity of Him His Realms and Kingdoms The above Claymant had two Petitions read in Council 21 July 1680. and rejected It seems it was objected that the Man whom the Claymant claimed under must be a Grandfather at eight years old It is hoped the account aforesaid will justly satisfie and procure a right understanding at the second hearing before the Lords in Parliament And there being no president as the Claymant is informed that the Orders of this House do perpetually bar where the party hath not been fully heard For Henry 5th Earl had Sir Ingelram who had Henry and he had Henry who had James the Claymant This Truth is as clear as the Sun at Noon-day and blows over the misty mistake of Claiming nnder Sir Richard Percy It was the putting down of the Court of Wards and setting up of Priviledges on all sides against the true Heir-male and the general neglect of the Heralds in the Collateral Line and the treacherous Actings of his Solicitor did obstruct and delay all this time Moreover the Lord Ogle that married the Lady Elizabeth Percy hath endeavoured to change his Name from Cavendish to Percy and also to have obtained an Act of Parliament to settle and confirm upon him the aforesaid Lord Ogle all those Lands which are annexed to the Title and Earldom of Northumberland which Lands formerly were firmly settled upon the Heir-males of the Percies for ever See the Records and the Verdict exemplified and pray a stop may be put to the Lord Ogle's Act of Parliament by reason the Lands are begg'd bought sold and scattered The undoubted Right and next Heir-male of the Percies in Bloud and so proved at Law and therefore he most humbly and earnestly prays That an Act of Parliament may be had to restore him to his Birth-right Title Estate Preheminence Priviledges Place and Seat of his Ancestors As it hath been done heretofore to several of the Percies the Earl of Kent and others This being the 11th Year of the Claim of JAMES PERCY Who humbly Beggs Prays and Cries for speedy Justice
